We loved this tour. The tour guides are soooo much fun and such a great price. You see everything up close and personal. I would recommend this to all fitness levels. More

Our group was only in Salzburg for a day and decided to give a bike tour a chance. This tour went beyond our expectations. We saw all of Salzburg. We learned about spots of the sound of music, but the guide, Jonas, was extremely knowledgeable about everything having to do with the city too. We enjoyed Salzburg mainly because of... More

we rented bicycles for two days and rode in different directions each day - out 2.5 hrs and then back. My friend and I went to Salzburg for the marathon and so the next day rode by bicycle over the course and got to take pics which we couldn't take during our run. The streets are soooo bike friendly and... More

The tour is super fun. Salzburg is a great city for biking. The guide was wonderful and the sites are amazing. It's such a beautiful city. Those people on the bus tours are missing out. This is the way to see Salzburg. More

My daughter and I agree - best tour ever, hands down. Our Danish guide, Jonas was exceptionally congenial and well-informed. We biked around town and through the countryside, taking time to stop and enjoy all the points of interest from Sound of Music. Our guide took many, many photos for us and was patient and accommodating. Anyone can do the... More

We did the Sound of Music Tour in late April 2012, and our guide and tourfounder Rupert was kind enough to accommodate the two of us out of the regular season. He was responsive to the emails, which was really appreciated! We had a really wonderful and awesome time. Rupert was really knowledgeable about all the sites in the movies... More

The guide Claudio couldn't be nicer (immediately offered his sunglasses to a Guest when she lost hers), and informative. Cycling through the city and the fields was such a fantastic experience that I borrowed the bike after the tour and did it again, almost! All the staff were so friendly and helpful, totally will do the tour again when I... More

This was the perfect tour to do with our two kids who are 7 and 8. Luckily we had the guide - Gertraude - to ourselves so we could go at our own pace, which turned out to be very slow! She was brilliant with the kids and so patient and it was just a really fun way to see... More

I love most bike tours that I have been on, but this one the day was beautiful and loved looking at all the sound of music sights. Like the other review just said, it is not too hard, except for one steep hill. I would recommend this over any bus tour. We did the afternoon tour, there were only 4... More

We are happy that you enyojed our Sound of Music Bicycle Tour. Ok, there is one short steep hill, but as Julie Andrews already sang: "The hills are alive..." And the view from up the Abbey no other tourcompany can offer their guests. spring greetings from Salzburg Rupert More

I'll confess that I'm not a Sound of Music fan, but my wife wanted to do this tour. After bicycling around, I found that this is probably the best way to see Salzburg: it's faster than walking, but you're not stuck in a bus... plus you get some exercise. Anyway, this tour stops at all the Sound of Music locations... More
