Overview

This full-day Salzburg Super Saver tour lasts about 9 hours and 15 minutes, combining two popular half-day trips into one itinerary. The day starts with a drive from Salzburg along the Königsseeache into the Bavarian mountains. If time allows, there is a photo stop at Dokumentationszentrum Obersalzberg. The main morning activity is a 90-minute visit to the Berchtesgaden Salt Mines, where visitors explore underground tunnels and learn about salt mining. After the mines, there is 45 minutes of free time in the alpine village of Berchtesgaden. The afternoon is dedicated to visiting original film locations from The Sound of Music. The tour passes Mirabell Gardens, known for the scene where the children sang “Do-Re-Mi,” and Nonnberg Convent, where Maria was a novice. There is a 20-minute stop at Schloss Hellbrunn to see the gazebo where the Baron von Trapp first kissed Maria. The route also includes views of Schloss Leopoldskron, the former Trapp family home in the film, and the Wolfgangsee lake district. The group makes a brief stop in Mondsee before ending with a 50-minute visit to Basilika St. Michael, the wedding chapel of Maria and the Baron. The tour includes a local guide, air-conditioned transport, and entrance to the salt mines. Food, drinks, gratuities, and pets are not included or allowed.
