So much fun in the hills and the mines - Peter was an excellent guide for the Sound of Music tour. It was very fun. We also had a great time in the Salt Mines. Our guide was very nice and with our small group he was very attentive to help us get going and find our way in the village we visited after our salt mine tour.

Top Attraction!! - Fantastic guide on Sound of Music Tour. Shared a lot of information that was new to me. Would recommend to my best friends. Salt mine trip was unusual experience. It was more fun than expected with slides and boatride inside mountain.

Breathtaking tour. - This was an exceptional day tour - with the Sound of Music, saw some breathtaking views of the mountains and learned more on the history and impact that the movie had on the region. The salt mines were beyond anything I would've expected to see. Additionally, the pickup area for both tours is in the middle of an exquisite food market - highly recommend anyone looking for fresh food to shop here - heads up, it is cash only.

Good tour, especially if you are a fan of Sound of Music - We joined the two half-day tours in early June 2024. The tour at the Salt Mines was interesting, though we got trapped in the elevator for some time at the end of the guided tour :p
For the "Original Sound of Music Tour", the tour guide was funny and informative, telling us stories about the making of the movie, leading us to sing the songs of the movie, etc. If you are a fan of the movie, you'll definitely love this tour. If you are not so familiar with the movie, better watch it again before joining the tour :p

Only do the Sound Of Music - The Sound of Music Tour was fabulous. Great guide and bus operator. Lots of fun facts shared. Hit all the major locations the film was shot. The guide for the salt mine tour was not good. He did not choose to use the microphone so that everyone in the van could hear. Only the couple in the from seat could hear. The actual tour at the mine was great. Very interesting. A long ride to and from to not be able to hear the van driver.
