A memorable and unique experience - We highly recommend Be Special Tours for a memorable and unique experience. We especially appreciated the personalized attention and the little extras that made the day so special. We visited the Eagle's Nest, the Salt Mines, and several beautiful villages in the lake district. Gray provided so much interesting information and made sure we had a great time.

A Truly Special Experience - We took this tour with Be Special Tours and I can say that they really made us feel special. Our family enjoyed it to the fullest. We saw the lake district area, went on a summer toboggan ride (great fun for the kids), and had some great experiences with a nice mountain lake where we had lunch before arriving in Hallstatt. We enjoyed this little town and despite the crowds, we got a true feeling for the village. We saw so many things we would have never been able to see on our own. I cannot thank you enough for this day!

What a tour! - What a tour! Despite the history that Bernie explained us in a very interesting way, as well as sharing such a big knowledge about this delicate history, it was a great way for us to see the beauty of this area and the views from the mountain tops. We also saw a great lake that made us remind so much of our trip to Canada. We really enjoyed this day and seeing the beauty of this area.

Delightful day in Bavaria and the salt mines! - This was a terrific tour for all ages. Bernie drove us through beautiful Bavarian towns and villages and pointed out interesting sites before we arrived at the salt mine tour. My 20 year old said the salt mine was “the best” with a train, a boat and two slides plus free samples! Really interesting. Bernie them showed us a few more highlights on the way back to the hotel. Delightful’

Great tour guide! - Our tour was terrific. Bernd was a wonderful tour guide. He took us literally off the beaten path. He was informative, serious, funny, and shared details beyond what was core to the tour. We never felt rushed and really enjoyed our full day experience. He was a safe driver and the van was super comfortable. We would highly recommend him.

Excellent. - Excellent service. We went to a lake called King”s Lake…beautiful. Our chofer was very kind. The car was in excellent condition.

Great tour company! - We had a fantastic day with our guide, Bernie. It was great to spend a day cruising the sights outside of Salzburg in a nice car without crowds. Both the salt mines and eagles nest were amazing and fun but we also saw many other tucked away gems. This tour is a bit pricey for a small group but well worth it to set you own pace and itinerary.

Not a custom tour…just a car service. - We were incredibly disappointed with the “custom” tour today. While the Mercedes van is nice and comfortable, what Be Special offers isn’t much more than hired car service. We were driven to the ice caves, and then had separate fees for entrance and a tour. When that ended three hours later, we were driven to the Eagle’s Nest. Again, separate fees and guides. Just to be driven back to our rental apartment. No food or snacks were provided, just one bottle of water per person. Do NOT recommend.

Rainy Salzburg - I am very aware that the tour operator cannot control the weather. Rain and overcast conditions hamper any sightseeing opportunities. That being said, we paid a lot of money (full fare) to see the outside of a lot of Salzburg’s sites. The salt mine tour was outstanding, but I feel we were rushed through, due to our driver needing to pick up her children from school. My advice, pay close attention to the weather before scheduling a tour of this type.

Don’t waste your money! - We were picked up on time from outside our hotel. Our guide didn’t introduce himself and wasn’t particularly friendly. He dropped us at the salt mines which we throughly enjoyed and when we met with him afterwards he said we were going straight to Konigsee. We were surprised as there were several places on the itinerary that he said we couldn’t go to. For example there was another lake other than Konigsee but he said it wasn’t worth taking us there as once you’ve seen one lake, you’ve seen them all! He offered nothing as an alternative and dropped us at Konigsee. He barely spoke to us on the whole journey. We enjoyed our trip on the lake and had a nice lunch there. The driver then just headed back to Salzburg but when we got there he realised he hadn’t used all the allotted time, so drove around showing us a few places of interest in the city. This turned out to be nothing more than a very expensive taxi as the so-called guide just drove the car and offered very little else.
