I didn’t expect much from thus tour from a bad experience I had with the tour guide Martin on yesterday trip to Hallstatt. But it was a pleasant surprise with Silvia who is very nice, she provided clear instructions, apologized for unforeseen delay on highway which is not under anyone control. Salzburg is very nice, a lot of places to see. I will comeback to spend more time there.

The music - both the instrumentalists and the two singers - were excellent and the programme delightful, performed with grace and good humour. The meal was adequate but not excellent, given that the restaurant where it all took place prides itself on its fine cuisine. However, it proved to be a most enjoyable evening.

It was wonderful time. The musicians incl the soprano and tenor were great. The food was great. The restaurant was one of a kind and beautiful. Thank you for a wonderful experience 🥰

Was a nice experience, time enough at all visited places, considering that was a day trip. I came back with good memories!

Very impressed with our guide’s knowledge, friendliness and presentation. I would recommend Heidi as a guide
