Salzburg Yellow Line hop-on hop-off bus with Sound of Music audio in 13 languages, 10 stops, and 24-72 hour flexibility.
“The sightseeing bus I took in Salzburg was a pleasant experience overall. Although I wish it had an open deck, the crew was extremely amicable, and the tour went very smoothly. It stopped at key landmarks, allowing us to see every important monument in Salzburg. Overall, it provided a good overview of the city.”
A 2-hour private Salzburg highlights tour with hotel pickup, Sound of Music photo stops, and Mozart sites, for up to 8 guests in a comfy vehicle.

“This tour far exceeded our expectations. The guide, a beautiful Polish girl whose name escapes me, had impeccable knowledge of Salzburg and took us to all the main tourist attractions and then we moved into suburbia and nature, areas that most tourists would never see. We even saw Flamingos in a pond on a farm. Would highly recommend this tour.”
