Salzburg Private City Tour
What your day looks like
We operate our tour either in a Volkswagen or Mercedes minivan (up to 8 passengers) or Mercedes limousine (up to 3 passengers) and are happy to arrange your private tour according to personal interests and individual needs. Salzburg is proud of its past. As an ecclesiastical principality that enjoyed the exclusive status of being responsible to the Emperor directly, Salzburg was ruled by archbishops, uniting both secular and ecclesiastical power. The modern city is located on the site of Roman Juvavum, a settlement that grew up on one of the major military roads of the ancient world. After the collapse of Rome, centuries passed until, in 696, Bishop Rupert founded the city new. The face of contemporary Salzburg, dominated by the baroque majesty of the old city, was created in the 17th and 18th centuries. It was then that the Prince-Archbishops Wolf Dietrich, Markus Sittikus, and Paris Lodron realized their major building programs, thereby leaving an indelible mark on the architecture of the city. Even today, over one hundred churches, castles, and palaces bear witness to the power of the Salzburg archbishops. Meet your English-speaking local guide at your hotel lobby or at the meeting point in Salzburg and follow him on the footprints of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, the world-famous: Sound of Music Story, the historical buildings, and the funny stories of our Archbishops.

What travelers are saying
We loved our private city tour in Salzburg! Our operator was delightful and full on interesting information about the history of the city. I highly recommend the driving tour over the walking tour. You'll see more. BONUS: our operator offered to take a photo of my daughter and me. When we got back to our hotel, we saw that he had left us with this gem of a photo of himself! LOVE IT!
