  Our guide was waiting for us atthe allotted time. We appreciated the flexibility in that we originally thought five fingers would be a good option but changed our mind to go to the salt mine - no problem! The vehicle was a sort of minibus but quite comfortable for the trip. The whole day was amazing. Our guide knew exactly where to go and what to see. Admittedly we benefitted from a (rare) clear day but the lakes we visited and the views were terrific. The salt mine might lack the adrenaline punch of Five Fingers but turned out to be a very interesting experience and tour was in English as well as German so easy to get teh most from it.

• Fantastic day out from Salzburg - a must do trip for anyone visiting the area!

  Fantastic day out from Salzburg - a must do trip for anyone visiting the area! Michael was very knowledgeable and made the trip even more enjoyable with his facts and humour. Sadly the mine was closed so we visited the five fingers view point which did not disappoint. Hallstatt was so beautiful, I only wish we had a bit more time to explore the town. I would recommend getting there early before the large crowds gather.

  Such a wonderful experience! We absolutely loved exploring the area with Michael as our guide and driver. He was knowledgeable and entertaining. He also made sure to take us to all the best spots for photos and sound of music filming locations, and he was happy to take pictures for us. The experience was well worth the price! We highly recommend this tour and Michael in particular! -The Andersons from Sacramento

  This was the most incredible tour to see some of the most amazing places but the best part was Michael! He had such vast knowledge of the areas we hit on the tour and was able to provide unique insights on the culture, history, and lore behind it all. He accommodated every request we had and more! He also had key insights to when attractions would be busy to help us plan accordingly. Michael even went as far as to return my scarf I had left in the vehicle to Munich! He went above and beyond to say the least and really made our stay in Salzburg and our tour special.

  Carlos was awesome! Super friendly, prompt, and flexible. The charter van is a very comfy ride. Great little tour with friends. We especially enjoyed the salt mine experience!

  

  

  

  

  

  

• A Fun Ride Down!

  It was interesting and fun, however, beware there are a lot of stairs involved. We took the funicular up thinking that would save us from having to climb, but not true. You take 2 slides down that’s the fun part, but it’s a chore getting up there. If you have teens or preteens they will love this. They take pictures of you on one of the slides which was fun. Didn’t get to eat at restaurant but our guide said it’s excellent but small. The village was really cute. We went as a group on a bus, however, you could easily take a train from Salzburg and a short ferry ride over to Hallstatt.

• Awesome tour to Hallstatt

  Ten of us booked two vans for the day tour to Hallstatt from Salzburg. Michael and Luciano were our drivers and guides for the day. We appreciated the flexibility to decide on the way down whether to go to the Salt Mines or 5 Fingers. Since the weather wasn't totally clear and a few had knee troubles we decided to go the Salt Mines. (There are a lot of steps to reach the entrance to the Salt Mines. A couple of people with us struggled with this.) Michael assisted us in purchasing tickets and guiding us to the entrance. The Salt Mines were busy on the day we went, so the tour took a longer than expected. But it wasn't a problem for Michael and Luciano. They were in constant contact with each other. Once the tour was completed, Michael met us at the bottom by the tram and then took us to the center of Hallstatt. Several couples wanted to get something to eat, so Michael got them situated at a restaurant. One couple wanted to shop. My husband and I wanted to stroll around Hallstatt. Michael walked with us and pointed out interesting details on the way. Everyone was told where to meet at the appointed time. One couple misunderstood where the meeting point was, so it took several minutes to track them down. After locating them we were on our way back to Salzburg. We appreciated the fact that this tour went back to Salzburg by a different route, through some beautiful countryside. The scenery both going and coming is absolutely stunning especially around the lakes. We had a 6:00 reservation at one of the bier gardens in Salzburg and we made it right on time. Michael and Luciano were wonderful drivers and guides throughout the entire day. All ten of us highly recommend this tour. The experience and price were absolutely worth it.

  Our guide Carlos was friendly and great. He planned the tour to make sure we made the best of the weather. He had a lot of knowledge about the history and the area around the places we visited. To make full use of your trip, private tour is the way to go.
  Thanks and a big thumbs up to Carlos for the guide and safe journey for our tour.
  Hallstatt and 5fingers platform is a must see.
