This 12-hour small-group tour departs from Vienna and travels through the Vienna Woods on the way to Salzburg. Along the route, passengers can view Melk Abbey from the vehicle. The first stop is a 20-minute photo break at Lake Attersee, a clear alpine lake in the Salzkammergut lake region. Next, the group visits the lakeside village of St. Gilgen for 35 minutes, known for its connection to The Sound of Music. Upon arrival in Salzburg, a guided walking tour lasting about 1 hour and 15 minutes covers several key sites. The tour begins at Mirabell Palace and its gardens, followed by a walk along Getreidegasse, Salzburg’s main shopping street with traditional buildings. The guide then explains Mozart’s Birthplace, where visitors may explore the museum independently after the walk. The tour continues to Salzburg Cathedral and Domplatz square, featuring baroque architecture and the column of St. Mary. After the walking tour, there is approximately 2 hours and 30 minutes of free time in Salzburg’s UNESCO-listed Old Town for lunch, shopping, or independent exploration. The tour returns to Vienna in the late afternoon with drop-off at selected central hotels. Transportation is provided in a deluxe Mercedes Sprinter minibus with extra head and legroom, free Wifi, and bottled water on board. The group size is limited to eight people. A professional English-speaking guide leads the tour. Taxi fare to the meeting point is included up to a specified amount. Food, drinks, gratuities, and hotel pickup are not included.
