I've had many private tour guides across Europe, but Michaela stood out with a combination of in-depth knowledge, charm and empathy. Her knowledge, passion and enthusiasm   are contagious. We were so happy that she accommodated our different tastes and interests.  After this great experience, we immediately booked others and look forward to seeing Michaela again soon!

Michaela stepped in at the last minute when our guide got sick. She came on time and was pleasant to listen to. She kept our family of 4 engaged throughout the tour. She explained to us many of the special features of Salzburg that we probably wouldn't have experienced on our own. That is exactly why one should opt for a private tour. Thank you again Michaela

We booked a 4 hour bike tour to the south of Salzburg.

We cycled comfortably to the most beautiful vantage points in and around Salzburg.   Our guide knew how to present the history of the city in an entertaining and informative way. We highly recommend this private tour to anyone looking for Salzburg with a dedicated guide. It was an impressive bike tour, accompanied by a lot of knowledge and stories about the city of Salzburg.

Private & personalized tours in salzburg with a local.

When you hit the road and land in a new city like Salzburg, there's an exciting way to dive into its soul: personalized local tours. Forget the typical touristy routes – these tours are like having a local friend show you around all the cool spots.

Imagine having someone who lives and breathes Salzburg spill its secrets. That's what local guides bring to the table. They know the hidden alleys, the best bites, and stories that never made it to the guidebooks. Whether you're into munching through food tours, wandering the city's streets, or going off the beaten path, a local guide hooks you up with a private tour that's authentically Salzburg.

The best part? These tours are all about you. No herding in big groups or rushing through places you're not interested in. With private tours, you're the boss. Whether it's snapping pics at iconic landmarks, diving into history, or checking out the art scene, the tour is tuned to your vibes at your tempo.

But it doesn't stop at city limits. Day trips let you escape the urban jungle and explore nearby wonders. And if you're just setting foot in Salzburg, kickstart tours give you a taste of everything. Think of it as a crash course in Salzburg awesomeness, guided by a local who knows the city like the back of their hand.

So, next time you're in Salzburg, ditch the ordinary. Grab a local tour and unlock the city's real magic – the stories, flavors, and places that make it uniquely Salzburg. Get ready to explore like a local!

The square is famous for its colossal bronze statue of the city’s musical hero.

This two-hour private walking tour explores the highlights of historic Salzburg, including iconic panoramic views of the city from the bridge and a fascinating tour of the 17th century baroque cathedral with its mighty dome, impressive towers, and the baptismal font where Mozart was christened!

Salzburg is also famous for its quaint narrow streets and magnificent open squares lined with baroque architecture. On the craggy hill overlooking the city is the imposing medieval Hohensalzburg fortress. After you’ve explored the interior of the stunning cathedral, you’ll visit all the highlights of the Old City including the Old Market. From here you’ll walk down Getreidegasse, the most famous shopping street and where the young Mozart lived at number 9 until he was 17.

Walking through Sigmund’s gate into Karajan Square, fans of the classic Hollywood movie the Sound of Music will be delighted to see the Horse Pond (Pferdeschwemme). Built in 1603 as a place to wash the parade horses of the princely archbishops of the city, the statue of the Horse Tamer and the amazing frescoes gives us a unique insight to the customs of the age. It is also visited by Maria and the Von Trapp children!

You’ll walk past Festival Hall, opened in 1960 it is one of the biggest concert halls in the world, and hear about Salzburg as a global center for music to this day. Finally, you’ll walk into the beautiful, tranquil and evocative grounds and buildings of St Peter’s Abbey and Cemetery. The first abbey was built in 696 by the Bishop of Worms; today’s church dates back to the 12th century and is a combination of many styles – including Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque, and Rococo. Both Mozart and Haydn had works commissioned by the Abbey.

The cemetery dates back to late antiquity and is decorated with many impressive funerary monuments and Gothic crypts. You’ll hear of many famous personalities who are buried here. You may also recognize the atmospheric Abbey and Cemetery from the Sound of Music when the Von Trapp family goes on the run and into hiding. The tour ends inside the cemetery grounds for you to continue exploring, or you’re a short walk from cafes, bars and restaurants in the Old Town.
