While in Austria, we are glad that we did not miss this chance to explore this amazing village on foot. We were impressed by the guide who narrated tales of the ancient salt mines and how they shaped the local culture. The walking route was thoughtfully planned and we enjoyed this walking tour.

This tour was like discovering the magic of the Alpine region and like a real fairy-tale and we also saw a UNESCO World Heritage site. This is indeed a picture-perfect guided walking tour and we clicked a lot of photos to show our friends back home. Do not forget to wear comfortable shoes, to enjoy this walking tour.

Our Tour guide was wonderful!! She flexed to our groups needs and wowed us with personality and information. We got a behind the scenes walking tour that kept us away from the streams of tourists while still getting the best views and insider history. Definitely recommend this tour!!
