Join this tour for a full day Sound of Music Tour.
Starting with a private walking tour through the old town of Salzburg you will learn a lot about the history of Salzburg. You will also see all the filming locations which are located in the pedestrian area and can not be seen on any other Sound of Music Tour.
At lunchtime, you will join a cooking class and prepare your own apple strudel. While the strudel is baking you will be served goulash soup as lunch and then enjoy your apple strudel as dessert.
After lunch, you enter one of our minivans to continue the private Sound of Music Tour.
We will show you the back of the movie version of the Von Trapp Villa and bring you to the 16-going-on-17 gazebo. Afterwards, we will drive on a small countryside backroad and show you the real Austria, away from mass tourism.
The final stop of this tour is the picturesque town of Mondsee where we will visit the wedding church before we head back to Salzburg.

We booked a private Sound of Music + Hallstatt tour with Bob’s Tours, and we are so glad we did. Our day began with a small hiccup, but the team recovered with such professionalism and care that it quickly became one of the highlights of our entire trip. Because of that adjustment, we had the pleasure of spending the day with two outstanding guides, Elvis and Francesca. They brought an extraordinary mix of knowledge, passion, humor, and calm confidence behind the wheel. Their storytelling made Salzburg’s history and the Sound of Music locations feel alive, and their familiarity with the region gave us insights we never would have discovered on our own. Hallstatt was absolutely spectacular. Even after years of seeing photos, nothing prepares you for the beauty of standing there in person — the lake, the mountains, the village… it’s breathtaking. If you’re considering this tour, we highly recommend including the Hallstatt portion. It completes the experience in a way that’s hard to put into words. What started with a moment of uncertainty became an unforgettable day, thanks to Elvis, Francesca, and a company that truly puts its guests first. We would book a private tour with Bob’s Tours again in a heartbeat.

A definite must for Sound of Music lovers! Our guide Elvis was professional, timely, courteous, and knowledgeable. He shared many "behind the scenes" details about the movie and its performers as well as general information about the Salzburg area as we toured. Elvis sought out our input on how we wanted the day to go and adjusted easily to our requests. A very educational and pleasurable day.
