Sights of Salzburg Sound of Music - Eagles Nest - Hallstatt Lakes & Mountain Tours

I offer an all-season/all-day (8-9 hours on average) private van-walking WW2 tour to Hitler's Eagle's Nest tea house and the surrounding area of Obersalzberg, which is a gorgeous 35 min. drive from Salzburg, customized to your wishes. This also includes visiting the actual Nazi escape bunker & tunnel system at the newly renovated Eagle's Nest Nazi documentation center museum and other Nazi/SS noteworthy areas nearby, including Hitler's Berghof mountain retreat house site (where he spent a third of the war plotting his evil deeds and which was the 2nd seat of power for the Third Reich after Berlin, which was destroyed at the end of the war by the British RAF). Any fellow "Band of Brothers" fans will particularly enjoy this tour!

For Sound of Music fans, we also visit the Sound of Music film sites in the mountains in that same area, including the opening scene hilltop (where Julie twirls around and sings) and final scene hilltop (where the Von Trapp family hike up over the mountains to escape the Nazis in the film).  We also visit the gorgeous Königssee (King Lake) in nearby Berchtesgaden, Germany and even can ride an electric wooden boat across the lake to the 900-year-old Baroque Pilgrimage Church of St. Bartholomew. Next to that church is a former royal hunting retreat lodge now turned into a restaurant, where we can enjoy some food & drink on the garden terrace overlooking the lake and high mountain views. This gorgeous lake surrounded by steep cliffs was featured at the beginning of the Sound of Music! This private tour is reasonably priced.

I further offer an all-season/all-day (8-9 hours on average) private van-walking tour to the gorgeous UNESCO World Heritage village of Hallstatt on Lake Hallstatt, as well as to the surrounding lakes and mountain region, including seeing the St. Michael's Basilica by Lake Mondsee (built in the 1400's), where the wedding scene was filmed in the Sound of Music. We also visit the spectacular picnic-scene meadow in Werfen where Julie Andrews plays the guitar and teaches the children how to sing DoReMi in the Sound of Music. Like all my tours, this tour can be customized to your individual wishes. 

We also visit the lovely villages of St. Gilgen or St. Wolfgang on the magnificent Lake Wolfgang.  We can also take the 35-minute steep train ride up to the top of the Schafberg (Sheep's mountain) from St. Wolfgang, as was shown in the Sound of Music during the journey up to the 'picnic meadow' hillside (but now in a much more modern and electric train than as shown in the film). From there you can see at least 5 huge lakes in the hills and valleys below! We also go to the spectacular Lake Gosau, nestled in the high mountain peak region. We can even take a swim in any of the lakes during the warmer months in June, July or August.  This private tour is reasonably priced.
