★★★★★★★★★★4.7 · 1,547 reviews · 9h 30m · from $93

Take the train to Salzburg for a guided Mozart and Sound of Music walk, then 3 hours to roam old town and choose Festung Hohensalzburg.

“Maybe ID map to location. Because we are in each location for just a few minutes, I might have the guide to identify where we are on the map at a few key locations so tourists can more readily make their way back to certain spots. I lost track and kind of wandered around and lost time (but I also attempted the castle as well).”

The Alps and lakes along the way were stunning. It’s a long day, but worth it if you want to see many beautiful places in one trip.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 738 reviews · 13 hours (approx.) · from $172

Coach day trip from Vienna to Salzburg with Mozart and Sound of Music sights, guided Old Town walk, scenic Salzkammergut views.

“Of the 13 hours of the trip, 10 were on the bus. While technically a day trip from Vienna, I would recommend doing the trip to Salzburg on your own if you're adventurous. Salzburg is pretty compact, with most of the sights in the old partod the town. During this time of year, the town is decked out for the holiday and the Christmas market is fantastic! There were two parts of the tour: the part on the bus and the part with a local guide. Our guide on the bus led the Spanish speaking tourists while we English speaking ones had a local guide (Hans), who was awaiting us…”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 537 reviews · 12h 30m · from $126

Guided day trip from Vienna to Bratislava and Budapest, featuring Blue Church, castles, Parliament views, optional Győr, and flexible free time.

“I had Matus as my tour guide for the day. He was excellent - he knew so much history about Bratislava and Budapest and was very informative, which I enjoyed a lot. Matus was super friendly, and most importantly, he was very patient. Even though some of us arrived late to the meeting point as we got stuck in line ordering food, he was flexible and patient while waiting for us. He made sure we were comfortable, gave us some yummy snacks, and made sure we had an excellent time. He even did an extra stop for us to see the parliament building closer up. Thank you Matus you were…”
