Overview

This private day tour lasts about 13 hours and starts with a hotel pickup in Vienna. The driver will explain the itinerary before you leave the city, heading first through the Viennese Forest to Melk Abbey. You will spend around one hour at Melk Abbey, a nearly thousand-year-old Benedictine monastery known for its baroque architecture, historic library, Abbey church, garden pavilion, and as the resting place of Saint Coloman. After Melk, the tour continues through the Austrian countryside to Hallstatt. You will have about 90 minutes in Hallstatt to visit the Skywalk platform 360 meters above the town, walk along the lakeside promenade, explore the colorful town center with its shops, and enjoy the views of Hallstatt Lake. Next, there is a short stop at Wolfgangsee Lake in the town of Sankt Gilgen for a photo break. The driver can also accommodate other brief stops along the way to capture views of the Salzkammergut lake district. The final destination is Salzburg, where you will have about two and a half hours to explore independently. You can visit the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site, stroll through the Mirabell Palace Gardens featured in the movie "The Sound of Music," and see the city from the Hohensalzburg Fortress. Salzburg is also known as Mozart’s birthplace, and you can try the local Mozart chocolates only found here. After the visit, the tour returns to Vienna for drop-off at your accommodation.
