5.00Our first full day in Austria & it rained (hard) on & off during this tour. But everyone had raincoats & some umbrellas so the weather only added an authentic charm to our experience! Andrea was an excellent guide. She was warm & welcoming, professional, & very knowledgeable. She imparted a great deal of knowledge about Salzburg, it's history, & many of its landmarks. She interjected some humor & a personal touch to the narrative. She was keen to answer questions & make recommendations to the participants. The tour was well paced & of a suitable length. My husband & I would highly recommend this tour to others who are experiencing Salzburg for the first time. Thank you Andrea!
