Private Car Tour to Sound of Music locations in Salzburg

About this activity

Visit the filming locations of The Sound of Music on a private half-day tour of Salzburg and the surrounding lake district, with a dedicated driver-guide. Tour covers the film's most recognisable sites: the Mirabell Gardens and Pegasus Fountain where "Do-Re-Mi" was filmed, Schloss Leopoldskron seen across the lake as the von Trapp family home, the glass gazebo from "Sixteen Going on Seventeen" at Hellbrunn Palace, and Nonnberg Abbey, where the real Maria lived as a novice.

If the time permits, the tour continues out into the Salzkammergut lake district seen in the opening scenes — a scenic drive past Fuschlsee, St. Gilgen and the Wolfgangsee, viewed from the car rather than as separate stops — with a stop at Mondsee's Basilica St. Michael, the church used for the wedding scene.
