May 2018 - This was a wonderful tour. Our guide Lucia was phenomenal. She was well versed in the history and landmarks of Salzburg. She was animated and extremely funny. We had plenty of time to walk around Salzburg and eat and experience the beautiful sights. Highly recommend.

Guide did not use a microphone...so basically missed 90 of what she was saying.

We just did the Dachau tour and were very impressed by it. Unfortunately our tour guide, Achim couldn't help himself and while we were riding the train back to Munich he decided to give his uneducated opinion about US politics. There were 3 of us on the tour who were Trump supporters and he made negative comments about our president. We were each going to tip him 1

A very beautiful city and well worth visiting. Our tour guide was great and it was about the right pace of tour- from easy train travel to Salzburg dont forget your passport!, guided tour of the city and ample free time to explore on your own. Highly recommend this tour

Tour guide Iain is very knowledgeable and entertaining, with a wicked sense of humor. Radius Tours in Munich is the BEST tour company Ive ever seen. We were originally scheduled to take one tour through them, but were so impressed with the first one that we booked two more tours for our trip, and all were Excellent. The office is conveniently located in the Hauptbahnhof Station from which the tours depart and the girl in the office is super nice and helpful. Highly highly recommend.

This tour was fantastic. Our tour guide, Lucy, was absolutely wonderful. She is fluent in English, Spanish, German and the Austrian German dialect. In addition to being a tour guide, she is also a teacher, which was evident as she was a good storyteller, was sure to answer questions, and made sure to engage with everyone. She had interesting stories and historical references while touring us around the city to help us get the lay of the land. It was then wonderful to have a few hours alone to do what we wanted away from the group. Lucy had great recommendations for things to do both in Munich and during our free time in Austria. We took her advice and instead of going up to the castle, we went to the modern art museum and saw the most fantastic view of the city while enjoying a glass of wine. Absolutely great trip highly recommend!

Out tour guide was Maxine. she was organized, informative and helpful. We had a lovely day in Salzburg - although if you can, allow 2 days as there was much to see and we couldn't pack it all into one day.

The trip started out great and we made it onto the train and on time without any issues. The issues started once we got to Salzburg, the tour guide walked very fast in front of the group standing at 4ft 9in max and wearing all black without any marker to indicate where she was at different points. She marched along like an army general most of the time and could only be heard by people standing next to her. Her directives were often unclear and she publicly reprimand members of the group when her instructions or lack of where confusing. On the way back to the train, because of her style of walking way ahead of the group, she got on the bus and left 5 members of the group behind. She then decided to get off the bus and left 20 members on the bus to return for the 5 she neglected. She went back to get the 5 people and didn't see them because they took initiative to walk ahead. Fortunately for them, and her, they were able to make the train back to Munich with only seconds remaining. Luckily, as she had all of our tickets and had she missed the train, we would have had to find another way to pay. The city of Salzburg was extremely beautiful, the guide was very abrasive with me personally and managed to make me feel very uncomfortable in her dealings. I would definitely not go on another tour with this company because of her nasty attitude. I didn't appreciate the way I was treated on this tour.

Verena was an amazing tour guide! She was fun and knowledgeable about both Salzburg and Munich and was happy and willing to give advice. She made the day even more amazing than it already was thank you Verena!

Our tour guide was lovely, very informative. Great tour if you would like to cross the border but don't feel too at ease about doing it yourself it isn't hard. The guide goes through some things with you, and then you have lots of free time. We were glad that we only did Salzburg as a day trip. It was a beautiful place, but we didn't really feel like there was much else to keep us there.

Tour guide Maxine was very excited to talk about this little town. Enjoyed having the freedom to explore the town but would have liked a little more time to explore.

Our tour guide, Lucy was fun, funny and informative. She gives you some interesting historical notes on the train ride, as well as some best practices of how to spend your time during the 3 hours you have on your own._br/_ You're dropped off on Makartplatz 4748'11.2N 1302'37.5E. Lucy walks the group past Mozart and Doppler's houses. She pointed out Café Sacher Salzburg which has a fantastic chocolate cake. We crossed Makartsteg bridge with all the love locks on it. From there we headed into the old town of Salzburg down Getreidegasse to Mozarts Geburtshaus birth house. You'll go by University Square 4747'58.2N 1302'36.6E where they sell wonderful sausages that you should come back to later. The tour with Lucy ended at Salzburg Cathedral, a baroque-style 17th-century cathedral 4747'51.5N 1302'47.3E. From there you have to pick where you want to spend the rest of your time. We went hunting for food and Sound of Music locations, many from our group went for food and then off to the modern art museum to see a birds-eye view of Salzburg while eating chocolate cake. I would recommend not heading straight back to the University Square immediately for lunch. You'll have to back track to get to the Sound of Music abbey 4747'44.5N 1303'04.3E. I'd suggest plotting out a course on the map with less overlap. 3 hours goes by so fast and you have to be back at the bus pickup to meet the guide before a final walk through a garden and palace used in Sound of Music. It was a beautiful town and deserves far more than a day trip. But if you have other places to be, this is a great way to see the city of Salzburg. Thoroughly enjoyed it.

Truly amazing city! Love the history and culture of this popular place. The tour was exceptional. Guide Maxine was great. Small group tour made it friendly so got to know a lot of new people. Well worth it!

Verena, our guide, was absolutely captivating. She gave us marvelous information and recommendations, spent extra time with our group explaining things in Salzburg and listened to people's interests. The day was absolutely fantastic! The only thing I wish is that we had a longer time on our own in Salzburg. It would have been nice to return after 19:00 so that we had more time to walk to places and have relaxing supper first. I would definitely do this tour again, and well worth the money and time. Verena, our guide, really added to the fantastic experience!!! Thank you
