Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We had a great time with Stephan on this fun bike tour through Salzburg. Good combination of Sound of Music and Salzburg history entertained women and men alike. Gave us the chance to get outside of Prague and into the countryside. Stephan was knowledgeable and entertaining. Highly recommend!

Amazing city. What a relaxed informative tour. Went to lots of highlights from the film. Even acted a few bits too. Would recommend to anyone who wants to explore the city with the Sound of Music experience theme. Thank you.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Sound of Music tour.
The bikes were cool, the basket up front handy and I loved the little booklet on the basket with pictures of the sites the movie so you could compare it to the real thing.
Our guide was Johan whose English was excellent, explanations were clear and made the tour fun while keeping a close eye on our group .
The tour hits a lot of scenes from the movie along an easy bike path ( there is only one steep but doable ascent.)
Johan played music from the movie and it’s hilarious to be biking through the country side with this music on.
Even if you haven’t seen the movie it is still an interesting and fun bicycle tour as you get to see a lot of Salzburg Old Town and its surroundings.

Very enjoyable, would recommend. Johann was very informative, interesting, fun and went through safety carefully. Felt safe. Beautiful route with the stops well explained. We wouldn’t have thought to do this had it not been recommended to us by previous customers. Excellent tour.

What an amazing tour. I love The Sound of Music film and have wanted to visit the locations for a long time. Our guide Santino was so friendly, enthusiastic and knowledgeable about everything. The weather was perfect and I would highly recommend this tour.

We enjoyed the bicycle tour very, very much! Our guide Santino was a superguide. He was very kind, expert on the Sound of Music and created a good group vibe. He remembered the names of the group members and their favourite Sound of Music songs. The musical movie most of us saw many times really came alive during this tour. We saw a lot of locations and heard unexpected stories! We saw part of the beautiful green countryside too. There were two stops to go to the toilet and fill your water bottle. Yes, it was a great experience!

This was so much fun! Our tour guide Santino was very knowledgeable and energetic. He really made this tour memorable. We saw several sites in town and then rode through the countryside with the Sound of Music soundtrack playing along. I highly recommend this tour!

Had a great time on this trip, our guide Mirella was very happy and knowledgeable, giving fun facts as well as the information about the locations. Bikes were good quality and cycle helmets supplied. Most of the route is cycle path and very easy on the legs, just 1 steep hill but you can get off and walk. Plenty of opportunities to stop and take pictures and the heel click is a must (it just takes confidence), we’ll worth it. Enjoy the singalong 🚲 🎶

Do you bike in the same lane as cars while riding in the city, or are there designated bike lanes? I am an entry level bike, not sure if I am confident enough to ride in the city streets. Does the route involve riding in busy streets with cars and pedestrians? Thank you
