Description:

Join a leisurely walking tour led by an expert guide through Salzburg's historic center, a UNESCO World Heritage Site often referred to as “storybook Austria.” See such landmarks as Mozart's birthplace, Salzburg Cathedral, the Residenz, and the splendid gardens of Mirabell Palace.

Once ruled by wealthy archbishops who lavished art and architecture on the city, Salzburg's charm is simply irresistible. Mighty Baroque churches and opulent palaces line the enchanting squares and perfectly manicured parks.

Take a stroll with a local guide and listen to anecdotes that bring the city alive. Visit the birthplace of Mozart and the cobbled streets in the picturesque Old Town, and get insider tips on where to find the tastiest local delicacy, the Mozartkugel.

Marvel at the impressive beauty of the 17th-century Salzburg Cathedral and the ancient Benedictine monastery of St. Peter's Abbey, dating back to the 7th century—1 of the oldest monasteries in the German-speaking world. Admire the grandeur of Mirabell Palace, and the intricate artworks of its fountain displays in the charmingly landscaped gardens.
