Original Sound of Music Private Tour Salzburg
Begin your experience with hotel pickup in Salzburg. Settle into a comfortable minivan and set off on an unforgettable "Sound of Music" tour led by a local driver-guide. Along the way, enjoy fun facts, behind-the-scenes stories from the film, and the chance to sing along to some of the movie’s most loved songs. Your first stop is 17th-century Schloss Hellbrunn to see the reconstructed garden gazebo made famous by Liesl and Rolf’s “Sixteen Going on Seventeen.” Continue into the Salzkammergut region, known for its Alpine peaks and crystal-clear lakes, and featured in the opening scenes of the film. Pass through the picturesque village of St. Gilgen, home to the movie’s mountain railway. Next, visit Mondsee to view the yellow church where Maria and Captain von Trapp’s wedding was filmed. Then, return to Salzburg to explore two more locations: Mirabell Palace, with its beautiful gardens, and Nonnberg Abbey, the setting of the convent scenes. Your private tour concludes at your original pickup point.
