Combine our Sound of Music tour with a tour to the historical Salt Mines.
Part 1: „Sound of Music“
In the first part of this tour, you will visit the original filming locations of the movie together with our guide and receive interesting information about the filming of "The Sound of Music". After all, our bus company (Albus) was directly involved during the filming of the movie. Julie Andrews, who portrays Maria von Trapp in the film, travels in one of our buses in the film. The excursion offers you the additional opportunity to get to know the historic city of Salzburg and the enchanting landscape of the Salzkammergut.
Part 2: Salt Mines
In the second part you drive directly to the entrance of the salt mine. There you will be dressed in protective clothing, which will be provided for you on site. Then a mine train transports you into the salt mine. An expert mountain guide leads you through the branching tunnels and explains exciting and interesting facts about salt extraction. You then go deeper into the mountain, this time by slide, an adventurous pleasure for young and old! Finally, inside the mountain, you board a raft and enjoy a spectacular and impressive ride across the salt lake.
