Brigit's information was concise, interesting and useful. We are so happy we did this tour as an introduction to Salzburg. But even if you did the tour before you left the city it would be very worth your while.”

Review of Salzburg’s private Old Town tour, with Mozart, Mirabell, the cathedral, and Hohensalzburg Fortress, plus practical booking advice.

“Such a great introduction to Salzburg including all the big highlights, hints on when to time visits to the fortress and cathedral and many away from crowd restaurant recommendations. Igor included lots of little details that made the tour interesting and helped us get the most of out of our other days in town. There were four of us and Igor did a good job adapting to everyone’s interests. If you’re willing Igor will walk you hard for four hours but will adapt if that’s not for you.”

We walked throughout ALL of old town. Liza would stop us periodically to explain the histories behind the squares, churches, shops, buildings, etc. I feel like a Salzburg expert after just 2.5 hours with her! Everyone in our group, young and old, had a wonderful time. I would recommend this tour to anyone traveling to Salzburg.”
