About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- Meander268123727680 contributionsPerfect for Architecture LoversThe balance of guided insights and free time made it enjoyable without feeling rushed. Every site told its own story. From the grandeur of Neuschwanstein to the elegance of Linderhof, the tour was a dream for anyone fascinated by history and design. Highly recommended! I’ll remember this experience for years to come!Written 26 February 2025
- Meander268123727680 contributionsA Deep Dive into Bavarian HeritageThe intricate details of Linderhof Palace amazed me, and Oberammergau’s artistic touches were delightful. The tour was perfectly planned, and every moment was worth it. I particularly enjoyed the time spent exploring the quaint streets of Oberammergau, which had a charm unlike anywhere else. This tour is a must for anyone visiting the region.Written 26 February 2025
- jimmymiguel0 contributionsThe Hills Are Alive… and So Was My Inner Julie Andrews!Let’s cut to the chase: this Sound of Music tour in Salzburg isn’t just for musical die-hards. I went in skeptical, left humming “My Favorite Things” like I owed Julie Andrews money. Credit? All Bernhard. Dude’s a mix of Wikipedia, and your coolest history teacher. Think Jimmy McGill (Better Call Saul) if he traded scheming for Salzburg trivia—charm for days, zero BS.Written 22 February 2025
- fhj20250 contributions1. A Royal Adventure Beyond ExpectationsThe trip was a perfect blend of history, nature, and awe-inspiring architecture. Neuschwanstein Castle was a highlight, but the peaceful beauty of Linderhof Palace left me speechless. The guide was fantastic! The scenic drive through the Bavarian countryside was equally breathtaking, making every moment feel magical. A flawless experience from start to finish.Written 16 February 2025

We had a fantastic day with our guide, Bernie. It was great to spend a day cruising the sights outside of Salzburg in a nice car without crowds. Both the salt mines and eagles nest were amazing and fun but we also saw many other tucked away gems. This tour is a bit pricey for a small group but well worth it to set you own pace and itinerary.

We took this tour with Be Special Tours and I can say that they really made us feel special. Our family enjoyed it to the fullest. We saw the lake district area, went on a summer toboggan ride (great fun for the kids), and had some great experiences with a nice mountain lake where we had lunch before arriving in Hallstatt. We enjoyed this little town and despite the crowds, we got a true feeling for the village. We saw so many things we would have never been able to see on our own. I cannot thank you enough for this day!

I knew that this area can be crowed and I have read that the eagle’s nest has sometimes huge waiting lined but what we got was so much more.
Our Guide Bernie had the tickets ready, avoided the crowds so that we did not even realized how many people were there. We had the elevator for ourselves, we saw the submarine engine and the views are just stunning!
We loved the village of Berchtesgaden and loved the walking tour through it with so much fun stories.
Thank you for making this day such a treat.

We were incredibly disappointed with the “custom” tour today. While the Mercedes van is nice and comfortable, what Be Special offers isn’t much more than hired car service. We were driven to the ice caves, and then had separate fees for entrance and a tour. When that ended three hours later, we were driven to the Eagle’s Nest. Again, separate fees and guides. Just to be driven back to our rental apartment. No food or snacks were provided, just one bottle of water per person. Do NOT recommend.

Hello,
Thank you very much for your comment and feedback.
We have stated that there was an extra entrance fee to the eagle’s nest and ice caves.
Gary your guide has received many positive reviews and explains normally everything. So we will check with him again to change that he is going up to the ice caves’ entrance and to the eagle’s nest with you.
We will contact you again.

I am very aware that the tour operator cannot control the weather. Rain and overcast conditions hamper any sightseeing opportunities. That being said, we paid a lot of money (full fare) to see the outside of a lot of Salzburg’s sites. The salt mine tour was outstanding, but I feel we were rushed through, due to our driver needing to pick up her children from school. My advice, pay close attention to the weather before scheduling a tour of this type.

Dear Joe,
Unfortunately we cannot control the weather. Unfortunately due to the weather there were also longer lines at the saltmines. Therefore we did the tour an hour longer without extra cost.
We are working with the saltmines to make sure it will work smoother.

A must do when in this area
We booked the tour as I found out during my research before the trip about the Hitler’s eagle’s nest.
I really wanted to see it but unfortunately due to snowfall in September this year we could not see it. Bernie still made the day so much more than I expected: From driving to the remains of the original house of Hitler to the see some of the other remains to the documentation center including the bunker systems and then to the top of a mountain to get almost the same view as from the eagle’s nest. We also saw a nice lake (I do not remember the lake any more) and the spectacular nature there. Absolutely outstanding. If you like the history of World WarII a definite must see!

What a tour! Despite the history that Bernie explained us in a very interesting way, as well as sharing such a big knowledge about this delicate history, it was a great way for us to see the beauty of this area and the views from the mountain tops. We also saw a great lake that made us remind so much of our trip to Canada. We really enjoyed this day and seeing the beauty of this area.

We highly recommend Be Special Tours for a memorable and unique experience. We especially appreciated the personalized attention and the little extras that made the day so special. We visited the Eagle's Nest, the Salt Mines, and several beautiful villages in the lake district. Gray provided so much interesting information and made sure we had a great time.

We booked this tour through Trip Advisor about 3 weeks before we left for Salzburg. Not only was our tour guide, Bea, super knowledgeable and efficient, but she was fun, very personable and truly cared about us having a good time. We wanted to see Eagle's Nest and also do a toboggan run/Alpine slide. She recommended one in Hallein and that did NOT disappoint!
Also, when we arrived in Salzburg, we wanted to see Hallstatt but came to realize getting there without having our own car was a bit of a chore for our group of 6. Since I already had booked a tour with B(e) Special Tours, I reached out to them to see if they could accommodate a last minute planned trip to Hallstatt (very last minute as I emailed them through Trip Advisor at 8 pm on Friday night to see if they could arrange a trip with us for Saturday morning at 10 am). Not only did I receive an email back within 15 minutes, but they were able to meet our request! Our trip to Hallstatt with Bea will be a lasting memory for our family. She even took us to her personal, super secret (NON touristy) place to have lunch - the BEST freshest grilled fish place ever (and we're from Washington state so we know our fish)! She also gave us a little lesson on how to properly enjoy schnapps and had us taste her personal favorite schnapps - which was spot on. Thank you, Bea!!!! You are truly the best! We HIGHLY recommend B(e) Special Tours.

I was blown away of how much history I learned during this tour.
Maybe I forgot about the positive side of hitler when he raised up and how evil it all turned out. the area is mind-blowing beautiful. Our Guide Gary showed us the mountains and the lakes of this beautiful area. But it really shocked me to learn also the history. I really would not want to have missed this tour. I wish this day could have continued! Such a treat!
