Great tour with young adults! - Well worth paying extra for the private tour! We had a great time with Erik as our tour guide. He was knowledgeable, friendly and efficient. We had plenty of time at each location, and managed to be in between the tour buses so we could see all the sites. The visit to the countryside was peaceful and lovely.

Lovely day with our tour guide and trip! - I think that the only thing we regret is perhaps not doing the full day tour. Our tour guide from Slovenia was very friendly and knowledgeable about the show. She and my wife sat in the front and sang all of the songs. The kids not so much, but we got them to sing some of them. The drive around Mond See and Wolfgang See were very cool. This will be a must stop for us when we return to Salzburg. For those who like the movie this is worth the tour, but I would suggest you do the full day.
