Let's start at the very beginning , a very good place to start. Jose was our host for the afternoon and what confidence he had. He brought the hills alive with warmth and charm. Highlight must be the trip out to Mondsee to visit the beautiful church with one hour stopover for coffee, perhaps with apfelstrudel mit schlagsahne. A chance to see a deer and golden sun. So long , farewell, Jose and Salzburg. ( And I found the taxi rank )

We had a great time on the Sound of Music tour. Our guide Peter was great….witty and very informative. We spent just enough time at each stop. I highly recommend this tour.

Had a thoroughly enjoyable tour with David and our driver Sammy. If you are looking for a concise 4 hour tour. This fits the bill. Would highly recommend. Informative and entertaining.

We had a great time on this tour! Would recommend to any Sound of Music fan!! We got to go to all the sights and our tour guide was very knowledgable about the movie and describing each scene that occurred at each location with behind the scenes facts! The bus ride was comfortable and my favorite part was getting to sing the songs with everyone. It was a great bonding moment with other Sound of music fans especially during the 60th anniversary.

The guide Kylie was amazing, funny and full of sound of music trivia, she even goes all out with the singalongs which was fun. The only thing that bothered me was the rude attitude of the driver as we got on the bus.
