'Sound of Music fan or not: Take advantage of your stay in Vienna and visit Salzburg. With a friendly driver you depart from your hotel in Vienna in a private limousine or minivan.

Take pictures of the region’s gorgeous mountain lakes and villages and visit the locations from „The Sound of Music“! In Salzburg you will be joined by a local expert guide who will take you on an extensive walking tour: hear intriguing stories about the history and the city’s famous inhabitants while you see the most important sights.

After the walking tour spend a couple of hours in Salzburg for lunch, do some shopping or explore the city further on your own.
