Tour Deluxe

Our main tour. A comprehensive, relaxed tour on both sides of the Salzach with lots of cultural depth and lively storytelling. This tour is our standard offering and is actively recommended.

Our Tour Deluxe is the great Salzburg overview in a compact format, perfect for those who want to experience the maximum in a short time.

This private tour includes the most important sights of the left side of the old town, as you know them from our Old Town Tour. But on the Tour Deluxe, the journey doesn’t end at Mozartplatz, it only really begins there.

In about an hour, we’ll also take you across the right side of the old town, past viewpoints, through gardens and to Mozart’s residence.

This tour is ideal for guests with little time but high expectations and for anyone who wants to experience Salzburg holistically.

Which Sights Will We Discover on this City Tour?

From Residenzplatz, we start as usual in the heart of the left side of the old town and cross the most important historical squares to Mozartplatz.

But instead of ending there, our Tour Deluxe really turns into the second half here.

We drive down to the Salzach, past the Art Nouveau classic Mozartsteg and along the promenade, where you can enjoy a wide view of Salzburg’s “skyline”: the Hotel Sacher, the Mönchsberg, the Kapuzinerberg and the ensemble of 19th century old town buildings accompany us to the Müllnersteg, one of the best photo spots in the city.

Here we get out, take pictures and are happy to ask a passer-by to photograph us all together, guests, drivers and rickshaw.

On the right side of the old town, we go through the Kurgarten and to the famous Do-Re-Mi steps from The Sound of Music, right next to Mirabell Palace.

From there we look over the Mirabellgarten to the fortress, another popular photo motif. Guests can decide whether they want to walk through the Mirabell Gardens and be picked up again on the other side, or continue with the driver along Mirabellplatz.

On the other side of the garden is Makartplatz with the Trinity Church, the Mozart Residence, the State Theatre and the Hotel Bristol.

We finally return to the left side of the old town via the Staatsbrücke, to the Getreidegasse or to the starting point at Residenzplatz.

Of course, we are happy to flexibly determine the endpoint according to your wishes.

Why Do our Guests Love the Tour Deluxe?

Many guests can hardly believe how much they see in just one hour and how elegantly the tour alternates between narrow old town streets, green gardens and open river banks.

The Tour Deluxe offers a particularly varied foray through Salzburg’s most famous squares and views, without any hustle and bustle, but also without any downtime.

If you are in Salzburg for the first time, you will no longer feel like a visitor after this tour, but like someone who has really understood the city.

And those who already know Salzburg often discover it in a completely new way on this route: from the Müllnersteg with a view of the old town, to the baroque Mirabell Gardens and Mozart’s residence on the right side of the Salzach.

This tour is perfect for those who don’t just want to drive through Salzburg, but want to see through it, compact, relaxed and personal.

What Makes this Tour Special – and What Comes Next?

Compared to the Old Town Tour, the Tour Deluxe is longer, more versatile and gives you new perspectives on Salzburg. More time with us does not mean more downtime, but more freedom: to get out, take photos, linger.

Especially if you are only in Salzburg for a short time, this tour is our honest tip: You get a complete overview of the old town on both sides of the Salzach in one hour.

After that, you know what you have seen and what you might want to explore in more detail.

If you like, we can drop you off directly at the Festungsbahn at the end, ideal for a subsequent visit to Hohensalzburg or a walk on the Mönchsberg.

Or you can stay in the city, enjoy a coffee on Makartplatz or stroll through the Mirabell Gardens again with more time.

Fancy more than just the Old Town?

Then our longer tours might be the right thing for you: With the Castles & Hidden Treasures Tour, we leave the old town after seeing the sights of the Tour Deluxe and explore the most beautiful corners around Hellbrunn Palace, Leopoldskron and the Hellbrunner Allee in a total of 3 hours, a trip into the countryside that also shows Salzburg from a different side.

And for real Sound of Music fans?

Our Round of Music is the extended version of this tour with an additional focus on the most famous filming locations of the film, perfect for anyone who not only wants to see Salzburg, but also experience it.
