Itinerary
- Vienna: Get ready for pick-up at 10:00 AM and settle into your luxury Mercedes-Benz tour vehicle. Leaving Vienna behind, we’ll head west through the scenic Vienna Woods, bypassing the busy city traffic to make good time. This efficient start allows us to quickly reach the Salzburg Lake District—beginning with the crystal-clear waters of Lake Attersee.
- Attersee: Attersee
Your first highlight is Lake Attersee, nestled in the heart of the breathtaking Salzburg Lake District and renowned for its crystal-clear waters and alpine backdrop. Enjoy a relaxed drive along the shoreline, with the option to pause for a coffee or snack at a charming lakeside restaurant. After taking in the peaceful scenery, continue on to Lake Mondsee, another jewel of the region, as the journey toward Salzburg continues. - After the beautiful village in one of Austrias most popular wine regions lean back in your comfortable touring vehicle on the way to Salzburg. After about 2 hours you will reach the beautiful Salzkammergut near the city of Salzburg. Capture a picture of the castle of Fuschl with the emerald-green Lake Fuschlsee as its backdrop, before heading to the city.
- Schloss Leopoldskron: A little bit south of the city center, surrounded by an artificial lake, is located the rococo palace Leopoldskron. In 1964, when the film Sound of Music was filmed in Salzburg, 10 outdoor scenes were filmed here portraying the von Trapp Family home.
- Salzburger Altstadt: Continue with a tour through the old town of Salzburg, passing Mozart’s residence, Mozart’s birth place, the Salzburg Cathedral, the festival houses, St. Peter’s Church, Franciscan Church.
