5.00Fun and informative tour of this wonderful story visiting so many of the places where filming took place and how things were done to produce such a great production. Beautiful country to visit and experience putting yourself in the setting of the VonTrapp family. Our guide was very pleasant and informative in providing details of the actual story of this family and bringing things to life. Thank you for a really fun tour.
Very good tour guide. He...

4.00Very good tour guide. He knew the history of the movie and related historical sites. it was pouring rain. It would have been helpful if the tour company sold umbrellas or ponchos as stores were not open.
Loved this tour!

5.00It was so much fun immersing ourselves in the beautiful sights and filming locations of Sound of Music. We laughed, we sang and we made many new friends! Our tour guide Conor was fantastic. I’m a big fan of the movie and still learned new facts about the film. The pace of the tour was perfect with plenty of time for photos and bathroom breaks. We very highly recommend this tour!
Great tour with Jose

3.00We visited 3 places. It was too much time on a bus. I would rather stay closer to Salzburg and see all the sights there. If you want time to take pictures, go to the sights on your own.

4.00Interesting tour for Sound of Music fans. Learned a lot of behind the scenes information whi h was cool. Our guide was into it and made the tour fun! It was a little too long in our opinion. Probably could have skipped the long ride at the end or shortened the time spent after the church. Fun day!
Excellent! Must do!

5.00Excellent way to see the iconic sites from the movie. The guide was fun and engaging and told us a lot of historical facts about the family and the filming of the movie. The bus takes you to all of the places you could not possibly make by foot because one part is up the mountain. I would not have thought that to be critical but the views are amazing. Even my 15 year old son enjoyed the tour and I would have thought he’d think he was too cool at this stage. My 6 year old and 12 year old daughters had the best time. A highlight and top life moment for sure!
Highly recommend!
