Amazing tour! We had such a great time with Mitch as our guide on ebikes. He was so charming, kind and knowledgeable , not only about The Sound of Music sites and history, but also the sites and history of this incredible city of Salzburg. I came away learning and seeing so much. My heart and eyes were completely full afterward. We are a family of 5 with 3 teens and found the ebikes easy to use and the city amazingly easy to navigate. So many great bike paths, we are in love with this place! Thank you Mitch and thank you Panorama tours for providing such an unforgettable experience for me and my family.

We did the Sound of music tour. Our tour guide Christina was wonderful , very informative. We never would have found or known some of the locations we saw by car. She was singing and had the whole bus singing. The tour takes 4 hours with frequent stops and getting off the bus to see things, take pictures. My son never sat down and watched the whole movie when we watched it every year. When we got back to his house he watched the whole movie and recognized places we just saw for real.

The tour guide was excellent (entertaining, informative) so it was disappointing that most of the sites visited were either closed to the public (no special access) or inaccessible from the tour route - distant views only. Wouldn’t recommend it. Better to hire a car for less money and do same route at own pace.

Hello,
thank you for joining our Original Sound of Music Tour® and for taking time bringing your experience to our attention. First of all we are delighted to hear that you were fully satisfied with our guide! However we are very sad that the tour did not live up to your expectations and that you left our coach disappointed.
We do understand that you would like to gain a deeper insight into the Sound of Music locations. Please be aware that some of the sites are not open to the public and therefore cannot be visited directly. Thank you for respecting that!
According to our evaluations and excellent reviews here on Tripadvisor, we get a lot of positive feedback on the running of the tour. We are sorry that you had not the same personal perception of this tour.
We would be happy if we could get another chance to welcome you on board of any of our tours someday.
With best regards,
your Salzburg Panorama Tours team

A lovely experience led by the funny and entertaining guide Michelle. You get behind the scenes information and see many locations of memorable moments from the iconic musical. In and around Salzburg to a short drive to the lakes and mountains, this half day trip is nostalgic and breathtaking.

Wonderful service from A-Z by Panorama Tours. Easy to order a tour by phone and online; friendly service, prompt email exchange.
Our guide was “Leo”, very knowledgeable about Salzburg’s history, informative, enthusiastic and humorous! He truly goes the extra mile! We were a group of seven Americans and extremely satisfied with our private, custom-made Sound of Music/Silent Night Chapel tour. Highly recommended!!

We took the Half day Sound of Music Tour. We were extremely lucky that it was a beautiful, crisp sunny day with snow covered mountains as a backdrop which only added a nagical aura to this excellent tour. The locations visited were stunning. Our guide David was excellent. Gave us a real insight into the filming and some of the filming techniques together with a wealth of information on the sites. He made the whole tour so entertaining. Our driver Eno was also excellent. Would recommend this tour.

Get all the info an more on the tricks of Hollywood in the making of this classic film, visiting many of the original locations and seeing some beautiful scenery. Expert guide, sing-a-long, lovely coach and great value for money.
There were people from all over and not a miserable one left the tour at the end.
Wished we had taken a whole day and included say the Eagles Nest - still there's always next time!

We took this tour on a beautiful sunny day last week. It was thoroughly enjoyable with a lots of stops and opportunities to take photographs and lots of background information from Peter our guide. The lunch stop in Mondsee was just long enough to view the church have a walk around the town and still have time for coffee and strudel. definitely recommend this tour even if you are not a Sound of Music fan as you will be by the time it is finished!! Great to listen to the songs from the film and we were encouraged to sing along!

As a fan of the Sound of Music movie, our tour guide, Luciano, did a wonderful job showing us all of the places where the movie was filmed. Luciano was very accommodating to stop any additional place we wanted to see which wouldn't have happened if we were on the tour bus. It was a wonderful experience!

Hello! We are arriving in Salzburg on a bus at 10AM on Wednesday July 3 and would like to do a private tour starting at 11AM. There are currently two of us but we may find others from our group to join in. Since this is a private tour, is the 11AM start time possible? Please advise.

It is possible. You can directly talk to tour operator. Private tours cost more, but at the same time flexibility is more too.

I am thinking about taking the afternoon tour in October. Will it be too dark in the evening to enjoy the sights?
Why does it say from $59.90 but the ticket is actually $479?

I called TripAdvisor about this and they told me that if you book a group of 8 people then it is $59.00 per person. there are only 2 of us travelling and I said I was happy to go with other people -- was there a way to go on a tour with another family and cut down the cost. they said, no, this is a tour for small groups who don't want to go with other people. Kind of disappointing because I like smaller groups, but it seems like both tours go to the same places anyway.

Would like to book but your prices don’t add up?
Please clarify pricing from €45!
When trying to book it is asking €370 for two?
What is the correct rate please?
What time is pick up from hotel?

We went to the depot, but I believe the morning pick up is about 9am. Afternoon 1pm
*Likely to sell out: Based on Viator’s booking data and information from the provider from the past 30 days, it seems likely this experience will sell out through Viator, a Tripadvisor company.
