5.00Wonderful river cruise in Salzberg, followed by dinner in the fortress and a magnificent concert! Dinner was delicious, service impeccable, and the views breathtaking. The concert was superb! The musicians were fantastic. We went on a warm summer evening, so the venue was warm. Dress appropriately for the weather. Highly recommend this experience!

1.00From the start, this tour is a disaster. The directions for picking up tickets and where google map directs you is extremely confusing. You end up in the wrong place. We walked around 10-15 minutes to locate it. You have to walk a very long distance, climb many many many stairs to get to the restaurant. Our table was filled with ants. No vegetarian options on the menu and had to pay 17 euros for a mango juice and a beer although, it says one free drink. The directions to get to concert is confusing and again there are flights and flights of stairs. The worst tour. Not for the aged. Wasted money; There is absolutely no guide. The cruise was not great either! This was one of the worst tours I have taken.
For all ages to enjoy!

5.00Overall rating great. Great concert with top quality performers. Fabulous location and meal was good quality for a set meal. Drinks priced excellently given captive market. Great waiter service. Boat tour. Very poor. Captain great and entertaining but you can't charge to set sail to go 200m down the river and back due to global warming and low tide! That should have been cancelled rather than a 4 euro refund.

5.00Great experience except for trying to find available parking nearby. Get there early. There is a long walk from boat dock to the funicular station.
