Fantastic
Reviewed by: Haleigh, 2018/12/11This tour is perfect for people who aren't in Salzburg for very long. It included sights and knowledge about Salzburg, the Sound of Music filming locations, and the incredible Hallstatt.
Our guide Al was enthusiastic, knowledgeable and passionate about his country. A perfect day.

A must-do side trip!
Reviewed by: KSC, 2016/11/06I highly recommend this tour for both fans and non-fans of Sound of Music. Our group enjoyed the semi private tour with 8 people (two groups of 4). The minibus was cozy. We were picked up promptly at 8:30 am from our hotel lobby. The first half of the tour was Sound of Music related, while the second half of the tour featured the beautiful Austrian country side and the truly breathtaking views of Austrian Lake region - Hallstatt. Personally, I feel that only half a day for each part is required and Veltra is the only site with this combo tour available. We went during fall season so we had the added advantage of capturing some beautiful fall colours. At the end of the tour the group was dropped off at the Mirabell Garden (another Sound of Music sight), we wish the tour guide would accompany us all the way through to walk us through the garden and point out some of the significant sights related to the Sound of Music. Overall, we enjoyed this tour very much and Hallstatt is definitely the highlight of our Salzburg visit!

Sound of Music Tour and Hallstatt from Salzburg
Reviewed by: Anonymous, 2015/02/25There were only 5 people on the tour - family of 3 from America and us 2. The guide was very good and nice.
After visiting a few Sound of Music locations, we arrived at Hallstatt.
We had lunch in a cosy restaurant in St. Gilgen called Muehlradl (www.muehlradl-stgilgen.at). The view on Lake Wolfgang was beautiful. For lunch we had local dish Bauernschmaus with sausage and beef. Then we went to the lakeside in Montsee, visited a small church and walked around the town. We had plenty of time to see everything.
The guide was a walking encyclopedia of Sound of Music and was able to answer to all our questions. We will definitely watch the film again after we come back.
I have become a Sound of Music fan again after many years!

I recommend it
Reviewed by: Anonymous, 2015/02/25Hallstatt was beautiful - definitely worth going on this tour!
The guide was very polite, he asked us if we want to have lunch at Hallstatt or the Salzkammergut restaurant with a nice view on the town, and we all decided on the latter. The view on the lake was amazing and we had a plenty of time there. I recommend it.
In Hallstatt we free time to walk around. Because we had a limited time there, we followed guide's advice and went on a sightseeing cruise first, after 45 min we arrived at a different wharf and continues sightseeing through there to the meeting point.
We bought some amazing wooden toys and some rock salt that was cheaper than in Salzburg.
You will enjoy it more if you see Sound of Music before the tour.
You should definitely go!
