What To Expect
Mondsee
The town of Mondsee, with its famous St. Michael's Wedding Basilica, lies in the beautiful countryside between the lakes Mondsee and Irrsee. This basilica is famous for the wedding of Maria and Captain von Trapp in the world-famous musical To the Sound of Music. Since then, more than 400 weddings have taken place here. The 12th century basilica is the symbol of Mondsee and one of the largest Gothic churches in Austria. The church received its extraordinarily rich decoration at the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries. However, the history of this place goes back much further. Originally, the Mondsee monastery stood here, founded in 748. After 800, the so-called "Mondsee Matthew", the oldest translation of the Bible into German, was written in the monastery. After the dissolution of the monastery in 1791, the building was converted into a castle and is now a hotel. The lake is considered one of the warmest in Salzkammergut area.
St Gilgen
The ancient town of St. Gilgen is set in a stunning and breathtaking landscape on the shores of Lake Wolfgang. This spa town has several interesting buildings. One is the birthplace of the famous composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's mother, which has now been converted into a museum. The Zwölferhorn mountain overlooks the town and can be reached by cable car. Enjoy the ride up to 1,522 m above sea level to reach the top of the mountain and enjoy the views not only of St. Gilgen and Lake Wolfgang, but also across the lake area to Upper Austria and the Dachstein mountains near Hallstatt!

Fantastic tour and service!

5.00We had an excellent time visiting Hallstatt, St Gilgen, and Mondsee. There were four of us (couples). Eduard was our driver/guide and very knowledgeable about the area. He flipped the order of the tour to align better for the weather and sun in each place and it worked so well. Because the cable car was under construction in Hallstatt, he adjusted to find another close by so we could see the views. We came in January and he was cautious and a good driver for winter weather. Overall, we highly recommend this tour!

4.00We were picked up from our hotel. Our driver Peter was on time and very friendly. He first dropped us at Mondsee, then St Gilgen, then Hallstatt. We had two hours stay on each location. In Mondsee and St Gilgen most of the shops are close due yo the holiday, in Hallstatt the que was long from toilets to shops to restaurants but we were warned by viator that it will be crowded. They are all beautiful places.
A plus, plus
