My heart still swells with emotion when I think about the Original Sound of Music Tour. It wasn't just about seeing the famous locations; it was about feeling the pure joy and wonder of the film come to life. As we stood in the gardens, I felt like a child again, completely swept up in the magic. Our guide's passion was contagious, and they made every moment feel incredibly personal. It was a day of shared smiles, and unforgettable memories that will stay with me forever.

Our tour guide, Connor, made our tour a fantastic and lively event. From start to finish he kept us informed and excited to be there. His knowledge was impressive. The tour was very well organised. Our stops were informative and gave enough time for some picture taking. Highly recommended even for the non movie fan.

It was a very nice experience. Our Gide, Jose, was great! Just a warning about parking in Salzburg while on the tour-park in the parking garage - not on tge street. The street parking doesn't give you a 5-hour option and you will be ticketed for at least €30!

Head out to the serene city of Salzburg, an Austrian city with lavish views of the Eastern Alps.

See the Mirabell Gardens, the Pegasus Fountain, Nonnberg Abbey, Hellbrunn Palace, the church in Mondsee, and more.

Follow in the footsteps of the Trapp family and picture Julie Andrews singing among the hills and find out about Salzburg's architectural landmarks.

Don’t hesitate to ask your tour guide any questions you have about the musical or the Trapp family!

Fun fact: In the movie, the von Trapp family escapes the Nazis by crossing mountains into Switzerland, but in reality, they took a train to Italy!

Explore the picturesque World Heritage City of Salzburg (where the opening scenes of The Sound of Music were filmed) on this iconic tour. This enormously successful Broadway Musical etched the very landscapes in our minds, making this tour a must-visit for all the fans of the musical. Follow in the footsteps of the Trapp family as you tour through Salzburg and its magical surroundings.

Featuring sights like the Mirabell Gardens (with the Pegasus Fountain), Nonnberg Abbey, Leopoldskron Palace, the Salzburg Lake District, Hellbrunn Palace with the gazebo, and the church in Mondsee (where Baron von Trapp and Maria got married), this tour gives you all the feels of the movie. While on the original film settings, picture Julie Andrews work her magic as the protagonist, Maria von Trapp. You'll also pick up on intriguing historical and architectural landmarks of Salzburg while here. Direct your burning questions about The Sound of Music, the Trapp family, and the film locations at your expert tour guide. All the while, listen to the original musical soundtrack and feel free to sing along to your favorite musical numbers!
