My sisters and I can't say enough good things about Patrick's all-day Sound of Music and Hallstatt tour. Patrick is a wealth of cultural, historical and entertaining information about Austria in general, Salzburg and Hallstatt in particular - and of course the filming of The Sound of Music. On top of all that, he is kind, funny and thoughtful - anticipating and accommodating our needs and desires and making helpful recommendations and suggestions along the way. We got to see the beautiful Austrian countryside and mountain ranges as we drove from Salzburg to Hallstatt and as Patrick answered our many questions and pointed out the sites of most interest, all in the comfort of a luxury vehicle. Because we were not on a big bus tour (no thank you!!), we were able to drive to the more intimate sections of various towns that cannot or will not permit the big buses. The tour was the most memorable part of an amazing two-week trip in Austria. It was worth every penny and we can't recommend it enough!!
