Great tour given by a wonderful guide

Published on Mar, 2025

Peter gave us a wonderful tour of Salzburg. The three hours went very quickly and we covered so many high lights including history, art, music, food, and culture.

Amazing Salzburg

Published on Oct, 2024

Had good fun I'm Salzburg. Eugene, our tour guide was very helpful & patient. If we had toured Salzburg on our own, I'm sure we wouldn't have know the history & stories about each place we visited.

Memorable and Fabulous!

Heidi is an outstanding tour guide. She is very knowledgeable and known by many along our tour route. She showed us many sights of interest and recommended a great dinner location. We learned a lot about Salzburg history. I recommend this tour. Rick
