Overview

Swap Salzburg’s most popular tourist attractions for something a bit different—a grand castle tour that covers incredible historic sights outside of the city. Avoid the hassle of organizing car rental, and instead, benefit from the convenience of round-trip door-to-door transport. The tour goes to Hohenwerfen Castle, Mauterndorf Castle, and Hellbrunn Palace, with lots of scenic highlights along the way, such as the meadow from the movie—”The Sound of Music”.
