Waltz through your day in the UNESCO-recognised city of Salzburg, a baroque beauty echoing with Mozart's melodies. You'll get the lowdown on the history and highlights from your guide during the transfer, so you have more free time on arrival. Marvel at the historic charm of the old town - its ornate cathedral and hilltop Festung Hohensalzburg fortress are the showstoppers. Your journey continues through the scenic Salzkammergut lake district to Mondsee village, where The Sound of Music wedding scene was filmed. Sit back, soak up the alpine vistas and indulge in Austria's distinctive culture on this scenic tour.

Would have liked to have extra time in Salzburg and Mondsee, even extra 30 minutes in both would have been better

Enjoyed Salzburg but felt after walking tour which was very good did not have enough time to explore the town. Would have loved to go up on the fernicular railway and to explore the cathedral but just not enough time. Mondsee was a lovely place but would rather have had a full day in Salzburg

Additional tour was good, would have liked longer in Salzburg, value for money is poor when you consider total cost with additional tour but very little time to explore Salzburg after it. The visit to the Lake District was nice but would have preferred that time spent in Salzburg instead, as that is what we paid for.

George is an excellent and knowledgeable guide with a great sense of humour
