We were 4 couples traveling on a Viking cruise. We opted to book our own excursion to Salzburg and were thrilled that we did. Michael was the perfect guide. A few of us were long-time Sound of Music fans. He took us to several sites where parts of the movie were filmed. My personal favorite was seeing the landscape where the opening scene was shot. It was as breathtaking in person as on the big screen. To wander the streets where Mozart was raised, learn some of the history of Salzburg along with the back stories of the shooting of the Sound of Music was a day beyond my dreams. To top it off, Michael knew just where to take us to meet up with our river boat. We really couldn't have asked for more.
