What people are saying about Salzburg

A nice meal in a restaurant that was not overcrowded and with beautiful views from the window by our table. The meal was well presented and unhurried. The service staff were possibly short staffed as service was strangely out of keeping with the event. Our bottle of white wine was left by a radiator without comment while the waitress addressed another table. She returned around 10 minutes later and seemed surprised that we had moved the wine and even opened it! The concert was fine for the occasion and an undemanding audience

Michael was awesome and very informative. He tailored the trip as we were progressing that helped based on the dwindling energy levels of my kids.

Very great experience even if there is no snow : it is always a good time to go to the mountains and see the majesty of the Tyrol

The activity was quite good and the stops and hotels where they stop for the break had good options even for vegetarian people.

A wonderful experience! So skilful and entertaining. Thoroughly recommend!
