Highly recommend - Wonderful tour of Salzburg that I would highly recommend. Katrina was insightful, provided great recommendations, lots of background historical information and interesting stories. Our trip to Salzburg included a visit to Mozarts apartment/museum, Mirabell’s palace gardens, Salzburg cathedral & fortress, had a wonderful lunch and topped off the tour with cocktails on a rooftop bar overlooking the Salzburg waterfront.

Highly recommend - Fabulous tour I would highly recommend. Katrina was exceptional, very entertaining and provided so much historical information and just lots of interesting facts about Germany, Austria, and Salzburg. We saw the Salzburg fortress & cathedral, walked along the waterfront for a delicious lunch, toured Mozarts apartment/museum, and walked the gardens of Mirabells palace. The day ended with cocktails on a rooftop bar with amazing views of the Salzburg waterfront.

Wonderful tour with must see views - Our trip to Salzburg was magical. Easy train ride into Salzburg from Munich. Katrina was a great guide with tidbits about the city and history. We had a great meal, off the tourist path, in a very old restaurant. Enjoyed the fortress and still cannot believe the views. A lot of walking on a gorgeous spring day in Austria! Great tour and highly recommend!

Great day in Salzburg - I had a great experience in Salzburg. The semi private tour ended up being a private tour that day and Katrina was an excellent tour guide. It was a great day seeing the popular spots and Katrina took the time to explain all the important things. She was very knowledgeable about many aspects of the trip (including giving a heads up about carrying passport to cross the border, and we did get checked) and was flexible with my dietary requirements. Highly recommend the tour.
