Bavarian Mountains and Salt-Mines Tour from Salzburg

This was a great informative tour. There was a lot of activity built into this tour to keep everyone entertained, starting with the train ride into the mines, slides deeper down into the mountain, border crossing, boat, etc..our guide was excellent too. He really brought things to life and provided great information.

This tour group company is incredible! Very friendly, accommodating and informative. Peter was our tour guide and handled everything perfectly. If you haven’t been in a mine before, this is a must! And a short “boat” ride on the water… underground!!!

We had an English only tour of the mountains with Johannes who knew all the sites and history. He was a wealth of information and could answer every question we had! The scenery was gorgeous! The salt mine was interesting. English translator devices not wonderful.

Wonderful tour. I loved this experience. Gergard drove us here & had extensive knowledge on the towns. The salt mine was such a unique & special experience. I would love to bring my family back here !!! One of a kind/fabulous experience.

The driver for this tour was very good, but the tour of the salt mine was not very interesting. I don’t think it was worth the price and wouldn’t recommend others doing it if they come to Salzburg. It felt very cheesy.

This was a great tour! The ride is about 45 minutes to the salt mines - but note these are not the Austrian salt mines. They are in Germany. The salt mines tour is about an hour and 15 minutes and very interesting, and then there’s some free time in a Bavarian town. Our tour guide recommended a wonderful cafe for apple strudel and tea.

The tour guide was good but this felt more like a bus shuttle. A lot of time was spent dropping and picking other tours up. Dropped off eagles nest tour> went to salt mines tour and that was nice. It is something you can do on your own so instead I probably would have looked up the city bus and went on my own. Then we had to pick up the eagles nest tour. Then we went to a little town for about an hour for lunch. The title said Bavarian Mountains and I thought this was a little misleading. I thought there would be sightseeing of the mountains. I did not get a single picture of a mountain. It would be nice if the bus incorporated this into the tour, even if it means pulling over 3-4 times at scenic pullouts for 5 minutes. Then after lunch we dropped off another tour back at the salt mines...probably wasted 1-1.5 hrs on other people’s tours.

The tour was a ton of fun. My wife and I had a lot of fun in the mines. We stopped in Berchtesgaden for a coffee/snack break after the mines. It is a very nice little old town. Our tour guide Michelle was great and we enjoyed ourselves the whole time.

Highly recommend this tour. Fabulous tour guide in Walter, so knowledgeable. Tour was interesting and also great fun.

Kind of kitschy. More a ride for kids than an actual salt mine tour. We looked forward to The part with th lake and they kept us in the dark. Couldn't even see it.
