About this tour

Join a guided day trip from Vienna to Salzburg by comfortable minivan, with scenic stops through Austria’s Salzkammergut lakes and mountains, the heart of “The Sound of Music” country.

On the way, pause in lakeside Mondsee to see St. Michael’s Basilica, where Maria’s wedding was filmed, then continue to St. Gilgen, the birthplace of Mozart’s mother on Lake Wolfgang.

In Salzburg, meet a local guide for a walking tour of the highlights: Mirabell Gardens and the Do-Re-Mi steps, Mozart’s birthplace, Salzburg Cathedral, and St. Peter’s Abbey, plus the original Mozartkugel chocolates at Café Fürst.

After the guided portion, enjoy free time for lunch, shopping, or wandering the UNESCO World Heritage old town. Then relax on the return ride to Vienna, with drop-off at your hotel or apartment.
