Excellent Tour Would Recommend - I would highly recommend this 4 hour trip for Sound Of Music Film lovers. Our excellent driver Ferfinand and our brilliant tour guide Conor made the experience so memorable. The scenery alone is worth taking the tour. We got great information about the making of this film. We sang several songs from the film whilst on the bus. Well worth taking the trip, value for money. Thank you Conor & Ferfinand.

Amazing birthday fun - What a joyous way to spend my birthday afternoon this was! Jose was an amazing guide, friendly, fun, informative and helpful.
My daughter of 20 was indulging my birthday wish and had only seen the film once but said what a great trip it had been.
Alongside the movie locations, you get to know all about the real Von Trapps and see a bit more of Beautiful Austria, and of course sing your head off!
Reverend Mother says bless you my son to Jose for giving her such a wonderful birthday afternoon

Well paced and enjoyable - The tour was well paced and you got to see a lot of the sites around Salzburg but also into the Lake District where we got to see other beautiful highlights. Our guide, Jose, was wonderful and brought a lot of energy to the group. Jose did a great job sharing the differences between the real Von Trapp family history and the movie’s portrayal. There is a singalong portion which was surprisingly fun - not everyone in my group’s favorite but it kept the tour interesting during the longer drive portion.

Must do when in Salzburg! - We had a great time on this tour and even if you are not a Sound of Music fan, it is well with it! They take you out of Salzburg to the beautiful lake side town Mondsee. Also, our tour guide, Jose, was great and a show himself with the bus driver, Fernand, who was a pleasure himself and very considerate. If you love the Sound of Music be prepared to sing along!

Fun way to spend an afternoon in Salzburg. - Jose was great and it was exactly what I expected. Fun trip but kind of rushed if you have to do so much driving around.

March 2025 visit - This tour was well located for pick up.
Friendly host.
Didn't have a lot of time at the places we visited to get the most out of the trip.
Received a free postcard, after buying one at one of the stops.
Was dropped off at Mirabell gardens
