Hallstatt and The Sound of Music Tour from Salzburg

This day trip actually consists of two half-day tours: a morning trip to Hallstatt, followed by a return to Salzburg city center at midday, and then an afternoon tour of "The Sound of Music" filming locations. The guides for both tours were very professional, providing detailed and humorous explanations. The morning trip to Hallstatt is highly dependent on the weather; there's an observation deck on the mountain offering panoramic views of the entire lake district, but the cable car ticket is an additional cost. Alternatively, you can simply walk around the town and enjoy its atmosphere. In the afternoon, you'll visit several filming locations from "The Sound of Music." Most allow you to get off the bus to explore and take photos, while a few are viewed from the tour bus. "The Sound of Music" soundtrack is also played on the bus, which really helps you immerse yourself in the movie's scenes and atmosphere.

Very enthusiastic guide! Only thing is that the tour comes in 2 parts: We head back to Salzaburg pick up point after Halstatt, to restart our journey for Sound of Music tour. Other than that, had a good time!

Husband and I enjoyed the tour so much, visited Hallstatt am and sound of music pm. We sing along with the tour guide on the bus, it was a fun memorable moment.

The tour guide was so much fun! The Sound of Music tour played music, which created a fantastic atmosphere!

Interesting and engaging experience by the friendly and well spoken guide, especially when the sound of music songs were player in the car while cruising

Hubby and I booked the two Panorama Bus tours through Klook. The Hallstatt tour was in the morning, then the Sound of Music tour was right after, in the afternoon. Both tours are MUST DO when you visit Salzburg! Hallstatt is a lovely town to tour, while the Sound of Music tour brings you to most of the filming locations, including spending time at the Mirabell Gardens while singing DoReMi. The tour guides -- Sylvia for the Hallstatt tour and Maria for the Sound of Music tour (what a fitting name!) -- were both entertaining, knowledgeable and helpful. The whole day was very fulfilling (although tiring, as expected). If you have more time, a suggestion is to do the Hallstatt tour on one day and the Sound of Music tour on another, so that you can have more time to explore Hallstatt. The half-day Hallstatt tour was enough to give us a flavor and experience the beauty of the place, but we would have wanted a bit more time to explore.

love the vibes.... good tour but too rush on every stop

The tour has an excellent arrangement. we could enjoy a wonderful experience. The places are so beautiful like having a dream.. it is worth to have a try.

very good travel. Nice tourist guide and spectacular view!

Connor was a great guide — very knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and engaging throughout the tour. We especially appreciated all the information he shared during the drive and how helpful he was in recommending things to do in Salzburg. BUT, our experience with the other female guide and the bus driver was disappointing. My sister’s family was traveling with a toddler, and they were asked to get off the first bus (there are two) while we were quickly buying food, because "food was supposedly not allowed inside". How could there be a such a "policy" when drinks were being sold inside the bus. We booked a whole-day tour, so naturally people would need to eat at some point. Most tours usually just remind guests to eat carefully and not leave a mess. Honestly, it just came across like the driver simply did not want to clean the bus afterward, which made the situation feel unnecessarily strict and inconvenient, especially for families with young children.
