Il programma nel dettaglio

Lace up your walking shoes and hit the streets of stunning Salzburg, the model of a picture-perfect Austrian town. This magical place, surrounded by a fortress of mountains, is one of the most beautiful in Europe, with the old town or ‘Altstadt’ listed by Unesco for its exquisite baroque churches, towering spires and domes and quiet side streets. Discover the beauty of the birthplace of Mozart and the setting for The Sound of Music, where you are never far away from the strains of the classical quartet.

Your experienced guide will lead you on a fascinating walk that takes in all the sites of this breathtaking town. You’ll see the house where baby Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born in 1756, with exhibits including Mozart's childhood violin, clavichord, harpsichord and documents from his life. Then visit Mozart's Residence, where he lived as an adult and wrote some of his greatest works. Wander down the busy shopping street of the Getreidegasse and stop off at the 17th century baroque cathedral.

Then marvel at the impressive Residenz Palace looking out over the Residenzplatz square and fountain, before proceeding to the Mirabell Palace and Gardens, constructed by Prince-Archbishop Wolf Dietrich von Raitenau as a token of his love for Salome Alt. If you want to enter some of the attractions you'll see all the walking tour, why not take advantage of the great value Salzburg Card which gives you free entrance to all museums and sights of the city? It’s valid for 24 hours, but you're guaranteed to fall in love with storybook Salzburg much quicker than that with the educational Salzburg walking tour.
