Sound of Music movie location tour in January!
JandJBird,,Jan 9, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00This is such a good tour to do! Bob’s company are very efficient, with a max of 8 people on the mini bus, and our guide Elvis was great fun! The tour takes you out of the city and around all the sites of the movie locations and Elvis kept us entertained all the way round. He was full of information about anything and everything and we had a great four hours together. We sung ‘The Hills Are Alive’ running through the field of snow, and stopped for hot drinks and cake before coming back to the city to the Mirabell Gardens to see the location shots in town. We’re coming back to do this again in the Spring one year, to see Salzburg in the sunshine! A highly recommendable tour. Thank you Elvis!
Great guide with lots of information

5.00Great tour! We saw all our favorite sites from the movie; but learned so much more about the filming of the movie and of the area.; the drive alone from Salzburg to Mondsee was breathtaking. I would highly recommend this tour and Elvis our tour guide was wonderful.
Wonderful small-group Sound of Music tour experience
Legitimate Parker,,Jan 2, 2026
- Review from Tripadvisor
5.00We thoroughly enjoyed our small-group (eight people plus tour guide in a small van) tour with Franceska. She was very knowledgeable, sharing not just Sound of Music movie filming insights, but the real family history and connection to the area. Of course we listened to all the songs from the movie, appropriate to what sight we had just visited or were about to visit, and she showed us many still shots from the movie when were were at the various locations. The tour went well out of Salzburg to the church where the movie wedding scene was filmed, so it was really nice to get a sense of the countryside and small towns. The time went very quickly, with ample opportunity to get out and stretch our legs, take bathroom breaks, or get a coffee. At one point we crossed paths with one of the big bus Sound of Music tours (about 50 people), and we agreed we were so happy we were with a small group! If you're a Sound of Music film buff, I really recommend using Bob's Special Tours.
Must do in Salzburg

Ultimate tour for Sound of Music fans

5.00An absolute must do for any fans of the Sound of Music! The small tour size meant we covered a lot of ground in 4 hours, and got so many behind the scenes tidbits, with plenty of time for photos. A really wonderful experience!
The Hills are Alive!

5.00An enjoyable tour of the key sights of the movie with a couple of sing-alongs and surprising treats along the way (the apple strudel was divine!). Elvis added a whole other bit of magic to the tour with his facts, insights and some good goss on behind the scenes shenanigans of the movie! Lots of fun!
Guide Laura was...

5.00Guide Laura was fantastic, kind, excellent driving skills and enunciation. The sites covered Were vast even given it was the busy weekend before Christmas. I do wish we would have e stopped at the look out in the Lake District for photos, before heading to the wedding church. Mondsee has its weekend market so that was a special highlight!
A fabulous tour!

5.00What a fabulous tour! Five in our group on a Monday morning (although the van could seat 7) was a very comfortable and convenient size. Our guide was a last minute fill-in due to a home emergency with our scheduled guide. She did an amazing job narrating the entire time using a microphone so all could clearly hear. We learned tons of fascinating information related to every site we visited, all movie locations for to the Sound of Music movie. We weren't rushed but made efficient use of our 4 hours. This tour was worth every penny. It exceeded our expectations. Our guide's knowledge base was impressive.
Highly recommended Sound of music tour in Salzburg
