Fatastic entertaining tour guide and driver:-).

Reviewed by: Hilm, 2018/08/20

Great tour!
Guide and driver were entertaining and very nice.
I would loved to walk in the hills where Maria danced and see the view, instead of bus through country side...
Amazing views and stories - just would have liked to walk more.
Mondsee was beautiful.

A must do when in Salzburg!!

Reviewed by: Khaled, 2018/08/06

The Panorama Sound of Music Tour is a must do for those who are in love with the musical. The tour is about 4 hours and shows mostly all shot locations in and outside of Salzburg. We were extremely lucky to have David as a tour guide, he is so funny, knowledgeable about the musical and made all the difference in our trip. We recommend that you go with David and Karl (bus driver) if you get the chance. If you do, you will be in for a great entertaining tour.

Things to consider:
- no eating on the bus. For those with children make sure you feed them prior to the tour.
- try to get a seat in the middle of the window not next to curtains.
- try to get a seat in front close to the guide you’ll experience the tour better.
- make sure you watch the movie or know the songs you will karaoke in the bus :) great fun.
- keep some change to tip the guide and the driver at the end, they truly deserve it for the effort they put to make it a memorable experience.

PS: enjoy your time and sing your heart out...

This is the best tour, David was the best guide he made the tour lively with just the right amount of jokes, singing and behind the scenes tidbits. Highly recommend this way of seeing The Sound of Music sights.

Our delightful tour guide gave a running commentary of the sights we enjoyed on this fun and informative tour.

The bus was comfortable and the length of the tour appropriate. The guide did a good job of differentiating between the movie and the actually historical places we visited.

We had a nice tour of the country side as well as spots used in the filming of the movie.

It was a lovely day, and we enjoyed the break having the bus driver do the driving for us. We even got to sing along with a few famous songs from the movie. Great fun!

A great day! Visiting the movie sites and hearing the 'back stage" stories joining in with the songs and seeing the wonderful scenery. The tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Strazburg. Even the weather was good to us!

My mom and I had an amazing time at the "sound of music tour". There were sing a longs on the bus and we were all singing on top of our lungs. So much fun.. We also stopped at the abbey.. however we were not able to go inside as the abbey is still used by many nuns.. such an informative and fun tour

Por lo general, no me gustan los tours porque no ofrecen información detallada y las experiencias siempre nos dejan con ganas de haber visto más o conocido más.
Creo que por primera vez, puedo decir con muchísimo gusto, que hemos encontrado un tour sin desperdicio, divertido, informativo, cómodo y muy organizado.
David, nuestro guía, es extraordinario.
Simpático, oportuno, muy comprometido con todos sus clientes y nos contagió de su entusiasmo.
Me gustó tanto, que si vuelvo, lo repetiré.

Our guide and bus driver were marvelous. They were well versed in the history and the movie. Our guide had a beautiful voice and knew all the Sound of Music songs which we all participated in singing. It was a fun time. I definitely would recommend this tour to everyone. We had a wonderful time. Thanks.

One cannot go to Salzburg and not do the Sound of Music Tour. Not only was this tour enjoyable, but you actually learn tidbits of information that even after watching the movie many, many times, you still learn something new. You MUST also have the apple strudel that is recommended.
