Saw the major sites. Commentary was clear. Would have helped us if our bus driver could have spoken some English as her instructions were all in German.

We thoroughly enjoyed our sightseeing trip around Salzburg. It is a beautiful city and this is a great way to see all and go back to your chosen place of interest

Was ok so far. As it's a small town, you can do the tour on your own. But the information was good and you get a good overview. The Blueline was also interesting. As there are relatively few tours, you can't get off too often.

Good tour with audio commentary,but it is not easy to find the stops,you do not see staff at the stops themselves,and unfortunately perhaps due to the small size of the city,long intervals between runs ( yellow route). I can say that deserves praise the lady driver of the bus we took,for her kindness,communicativeness and helpfulness to the tourists on the bus

the bluie line gap of 3 hours didnt alloow us to explore any place. Plus there was no time given to see the splace around, not even 15 mins. Hence, the blue line is more of a sit in the bus & watch types.
