Why I love being a tour guide
Nothing satisfies me more as a tour guide than seeing the faces of our guests as they experience the stunning sights and beauty of Salzburg and its surrounding areas, just as I did, as a tourist for the first time, 25 years ago!

Fun TimesAnnette on Trustpilot, July 2023David was an enthusiastic and informative tour guide and we had so much fun seeing the sights and singing the songs. We learned a lot, got great pictures, and just enjoyed these few hours outside the city.
David was a great tour guide who...Elizabeth King on Trustpilot, July 2023David was a great tour guide who obviously knows, and loves, his knowledge of The Sound of Music. The tour was well planned and it was great getting to see the multiple locations In and around Salzburg. I would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Salzburg.
My Sisters Dream TourJ. Hill on Trustpilot, July 2023We took the private 4 hour Sound of Music Tour with David back in June. David was fantastic and si enthusiastic the entire tour. He gave us all the behind the scenes information, showed us all the movie spots, took pictures for us, and we sang along to the sound track in his car. The tour was allot of fun and the scenery was breathtaking. If you take this tour, do a private tour and ask for David.
Fun Highlights from The Sound of Music!Sarah, on Trustpilot, March 2023We had so much fun on this tour. David was a great guide and storyteller! He was very knowledgeable and it was fun to have someone take us arrive and show us all the places where the original movie was filmed, and share behind-the-scenes stories. It was also fun to sing along to the music while driving on the bus! We are very glad that we went on this tour! They do a great job of making it entertaining and informative :-)

David had lots of back stories about the filming of the movie. Made the bus ride fun with the sinf a long & explanation of all the various sites. Great to have time to eat & walk around before returning. Evo had beverage which were great! Definitely recommend this tour/ wouldn't have gotten much out of just walking around from place to place & trying to figure out what exactly we were looking at!

This was the highlight of my tripRenee Rohwedder, on Trustpilot, June 2022This was the higlight of my trip! Our huide David was terriffic! I have loved the Sound of Music since it came out in 1965. I was 8 years old and I have seen the movie countless times and can't wait to see it again to look for the "hollywood Trickery" David mentioned & to see the sights of Salzburg. Thanks for making my dream come true!

Juliet_W on Viator, April 2026This was the best experience ever! My teen Daughter and I had the BEST time. She is 16 going on 17 and had a blast seeing the filming locations and especially the Gazebo. Our tour guide DAVE was the best we have ever had! He was so excited and was outrageously FUN! Ask for Dave if you can!
