Let the hills come alive on a private journey through the real "Sound of Music" film locations, then continue into Austria's Lake District. After hotel pickup in Salzburg, visit Mirabell Gardens with the "Do-Re-Mi" steps and Pegasus fountain, Nonnberg Abbey where the real Maria was a novice, Schloss Leopoldskron (the von Trapp villa terrace and boat-scene lake) and the glass gazebo from "Sixteen Going on Seventeen" in Hellbrunn Palace Park. Then head into the Salzkammergut for a photo stop at Lake Fuschl, the Basilica of St. Michael in Mondsee where the wedding scene was filmed, the lakeside promenade of St. Gilgen and the postcard village of St. Wolfgang on Wolfgangsee. Your private guide shares local tips and recommendations, and you explore each stop at your own pace. Recorded audio commentary is available in the vehicle in nine languages.
