Our family thoroughly enjoyed the horse-drawn sleigh ride in December 2017. The joy of riding on the snow at Christmas time, under the warmth of the blanket, was one of the highlights of our trip to Salzburg. We cannot recommend this tour highly enough.

OMG - Breathtaking views. The bus trip to Ramsau was wonderful then seeing the horses and sleigh as we pulled into the parking lot was amazing. Our sleigh driver was very nice and helped us with a blanket, many times if checked to see if we needed anything to be more comfortable. He stopped several times to point out different photo ops and to let us play in the snow. One time we stopped for hot chocolate and he shared his mountain water. Anyone thinking about doing this ride should immediately book the trip. Our tour guide was very friendly and knowledgeable about Austria. She made the bus ride interesting and even played special Austrian music for us on our way back to Salzburg. I will do this same excursion any time I am in Austria during the winter.

Lovely experience. Well organised, Pleasant Tour Leader Lisa. Plenty of snow and the scenery was spectular. Lunch break of 2 hours too long if you aren't intending to ski. Ski hire reasonably priced and efficiently organised. Would I do it again? You bet!

We did our sleigh ride on New Years Eve in brilliant sunshine, just as our guide - Walter - had promised. It was a wonderful experience, which we will never forget. There was snow as far as the eye could see and on our two hour sleigh ride we passed skiers, villages and chalets. The lunch break in the middle of the ride allowed us to warm up over a hot meal and catch up with some of the other sleigh-riders. Thanks to Walter and all his associates for making this the highlight of our trip to Austria.

Magical. What a way to spend Christmas Day! We even had a light sprinkle of snow. Everything was wonderful.

This was an amazing experience. Our guide, Walter, was the loveliest man and nothing was an issue. Would highly recommend this experience - it made for a magical, snow-filled Christmas day.

Avoid...tourist trap. Bus ride was lovely...a long string of wagons with no snow...not so much.

We did this trip on New Years Eve and we had a really magical day made even better because we were lucky enough to have our sleigh ride almost entirely in snow The sleigh ride was a round trip of around 2 hours including a half hour stop for coffee or in our case just walking in the snow looking at the brilliant views. The views on the journey from Salzburg were great and made the journey go quite quickly Our guide Walter helped with his informative and at times funny narrative After our sleigh ride we had a couple of hours in Ramsau for lunch and a walk There was some confusion over lunch arrangements as there was a large party on the trip who had lunch included whilst the rest of us didn't This wasn't made clear as we were all lead up to the same restaurant and then split into separate dining rooms The journey home was non stop so we were soon back in Salzburg ready for the NYE celebrations

we had the most amazing christmas day in Ramsau! The village was beautiful, our horseman was the sweetest and most warm-hearted, constantly sharing information of the village to us, telling us stories and chatting with us. And, snow fell at the most magical moment on Christmas day! It was truly an amazing way to spend our day, seeing landscapes and mother nature in person.

The bus drive up through the Austrian Alps was just beautiful! What a way to spend Christmas Day!_br/_ This tour was so well organised - when the bus arrived at our destination, waiting for us was a long line of horses with their sleighs! With snow on mountain tops only, our sleigh ride was just magical!

A perfect day out despite the lack of snow.
Review by: Patrick H, March 2015
We did the trip on St. Stephens Day. My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There wasn't the snow that we thought we were going to have but that had nothing to do with organiser. The weather is the weather. We had an enjoyable dayand would go on sleigh ride again. Very well organised.

I signed up for this but when getting there the day before and realizing there was no snow, I asked to exchange it to the Sound of Music tour….which you did. We went the next day PAID FOR THE SOUND OF MUSIC TOUR….AS YOU PROMISED I WOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THE SLEIGH RIDE…AND YOU WILL NOT RESPOND NOR REIMBURSE ME. Please respond to this and reimburse me and I will be happy to give a good review! 615-584-4255 Becky Porter
