Exceptional Tour from Salzburg to Vienna

Published on Apr, 2024

We traveled with Manfred from Salzburg to Vienna through the Wachau Valley, and saw all of the beauty along the way. Manfred showed us sparkling lakes, vineyards, the Danube river, and old towns. He knows all of the stops along the way. Our group found this day to be a highlight of our entire trip. Having Manfred plan the tour, and escort us to these places made this area accessible to us which was a really unique way to experience this part of Austria. I enthusiastically recommend this tour with Manfred!

Well worth it!

Published on Dec, 2022

Our guide was perfect, very personable and had great recommendations. Going up to the castle ruins will no doubt be a highlight of our trip. We considered taking a train and I am so glad that we chose this route instead. We got to see more than the two main cities (Vienna and Salzburg) and that deepened the experience of our whole trip.

Our trip could not have gone better. Manfred is an exceptional guide. New everything about everything. We are extremely interested in all thing "Sound of Music" and he had all the answers, took us to secret spots for amazing pictures, and left us with smiles on our faces. We have him booked for tomorrow to complete our "Sound of Music" experience and we have no doubt that he will fulfill our desires. It seems he knows the exact place of every scene from the movie.
