A must on your trip to Salzburg - This tour was a highlight of our trip to Salzburg. We were lucky enough to get Connor as our tour guide. He was outstanding. The scenery, landmarks and singing on the bus made the four hours pass too fast. Big recommend!

Wonderful experience! - I have wanted to visit Salzburg since I was a child, mainly as many for the Sound of Music so this has been on my list for a while! Naturally this was the tour for me! It did not disappoint! Kylie was our wonderful guide and she was fantastic, full of knowledge and a natural! So pleased we had her, also great sense of humour, thanks Kylie for being so good 😀
We visited it all, and I cannot praise it enough, so well organised. Would love to go back one day and do it all over again, Salzburg is as beautiful as I expected it to be.

Truly magical experience! - The Original Sound of Music Tour exceeded our expectations, primarily due to our amazing tour guide Kyle from Australia. She was a true fan of the movie and personal friends with the actors and members of the real von Trapp family. She sang the familiar songs from the movie and the entire bus sang along. It was truly a fun and magical way to explore Salzburg and the movie shooting locations. Panorama tours does an outstanding job with all their tours in Salzburg. They are very professional, have clean and modern coaches, and are fortunate to have fun and engaging tour guides.

Brilliant - absolutely book it! - We had the best tour we’ve ever had today with Jose. He was super positive and passionate and maintained a real energy throughout the morning. He was extremely knowledgeable and got us all involved in the tour, and we felt well looked after. We saw all the sights and - most importantly - my wife and I had a real laugh, and excellent time. We would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for a Sound of Music tour - and would say it’s our favourite activity we have completed during our trip to Austria, let alone Salzburg!

Good fun, great scenery. Worth booking. - The trip was fantastic, our guide Antonio was funny and knowledgeable. We learnt history regarding Salzburg as well as so many unknown facts around the sound of Music and filming locations....and of course the sing along on the bus was fun. Highly recommend you book this tour.
