Description
On our way to Mozart's town of birth, you will become acquainted with the beautiful Salzkammergut landscape with its mountains and its numerous lakes, where the Emperor Franz Joseph and his family used to spend their holidays.
Skirting Lake Fuschl and Lake Wolfgang, we will reach Salzburg where you will have time for lunch. The afternoon will be dedicated to a stroll through the old city, showing you the most important sights of this old Bishop's Seat. These are the Cathedral, the Festival Hall, St. Peter's Abbey Church and its graveyard (tomb of Mozart's sister Nannerl).
We will see Mozart's birth place in the Getreidegasse. The song Edelweiss from the movie Sound of Music will come to your memory while passing the horse-pond and, from the gardens of Mirabell-Palace, you will have a marvelous view of the Hohensalzburg Fortress.

This is one of the best tours, you get a nice bus drive through the Vienna, into the mountains, see Moon Lake and the birth place ...of Mozart. A lot depends on a guide- if the guide is attentive and knowledgable- you will enjoy it. This tour has just the right combination of bus time and walking time, enough time to eat, walk around the Salzburg, shop, go to museums, churches and enjoy the town itself. I would strongly recommend it. more

It was very misty on the way, so we were a bit worried, but be the time we reached Salzburg the weather cleared and it was very ni...ce. If you are in Salzburg you have to get on the rope way to the Hohensalzburg Castle, the views are amazing!

Time distribution for this tour was poor. We spent 8 hours driving on the bus, and actual visiting Zalsburg was less than 31/2 hou...rs. Furthermore, the point of boarding the bus to return was not clear, so time was wasted just locating and assuring that we are at the right place. We had no ID to familiarize us with other tourists, so we had either to search on our own, and to ask others to concur. The extreme hot weather did not help to make us enjoy the visit, and the guide brought us to the center of town and told us to be at the bus at a certain time. He explained to us the major places, and we felt that we could have spent more time, had we had it, to take the cable up the mountain, yet, with my experience of the day before, i was afraid that I might be left behind, and no one would look for me, so i did not venture taking the cable. In general, this tour was better organized, however, the distance was far from Vienna, so that the time was a factor in limiting our visit experience. . more
