The combo tour is very convenient. The first half of the day was Berchtesgaden and the salt mines. Only 30 minutes to wander around Berchtesgaden itself. I would have liked to spend more time exploring the town and if you want to get a quick glance around it's not bad. The mine tour is very interesting. There is an option for not sliding if you don't want to. Once we returned from the first part the Sound of Music tour was next. If you are here in the winter time I recommend booking this separate as when you return to Mirabell Garden it is dark and the garden is not well lit. However the tour itself is fun, informative, and offers some amazing countryside views. Well worth doing it you have a short amount of time in Salzburg.Fun for the whole family! Sing along was great. Guide Christina was a lot of fun. Would have been nice to see Nonnberg Abbey...

The salt mines I could’ve skipped. I would suggest just doing the Sound of Music tour which is why I scored this as a 4 on the scale. The salt mines were average, but it was a German tour guide so I had to use a translator radio thing. Not a big deal, but my device, as well as others in my group,...
The salt mines I could’ve skipped. I would suggest just doing the Sound of Music tour which is why I scored this as a 4 on the scale. The salt mines were average, but it was a German tour guide so I had to use a translator radio thing. Not a big deal, but my device, as well as others in my group, were not working, so I couldn’t understand what was going on or the information being shared. A lot of a light show with dramatic music than I’d anticipated. On top of that, I’m not sure if the tour for the Eagle’s Nest excursion was overbooked or what. Apparently there was a full bus for the Eagle’s Nest, and since we had room on our salt mine bus, their spillover came with us to Berchtesgaden Salt Mines. So, we had to take a detour and take them all up to drop them off at their site. Then we went to our excursion and had 80 minutes (which is what it is for everyone I was told). Then we had to go back up the mountain to pick up the Eagle’s Nest people. After that, we went and spent about 45 minutes in the town of Berchtesgaden, which was totally fine by me, I just didn’t realize that was a part of the tour. We were back by 2:00pm for the Sound of Music Tour though. Christina was my tour guide on the Sound of Music Tour and she was fantastic! By the end, we really were all freely singing along to the soundtrack and she was so knowledgeable. I learned many facts I hadn’t heard before! I smiled most of the tour and left in a good mood. I wouldn’t change anything about that part of the day.
