Overview
UNESCO–listed Hallstatt and the Eagles’ Nest are widely considered among the Bavarian Alps’ top attractions, but organizing admission fees and transportation to visit independently takes time. On this tour, begin with pickup at your Salzburg hotel and reach both sites in one day by private vehicle. Explore Charnel House, Fuschl Castle, St. Gilgen Mozartplatz, and more with your guide, and enjoy panoramic views over the Bavarian and Austrian Alps.

Book this tour you won't regret it!
Kara_R, Jan 2025
Book this experience you won't regret it! This review is long overdue so apologies. My mom and I booked a private day long tour to Hallstadt. We were caught in the national disaster level flooding in September, which altered our plans. Patrick responded to my frantic emails quickly and made sure our trip would be wonderful after the ordeal we had been through. Our tour guide was Gabriele and was the sweetest person ever! She was very knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and felt like family. She did an awesome job of driving us around the area, giving us history lessons, and taking photos of us. This tour van was new and comfy and the scenery was magnificent. Gabriele allowed for photo stops along the way but was great at keeping us on schedule. I would highly recommend this tour company, Gabriele, and Patrick. They were exceptional!
Personal Touch for a once in a lifetime trip for us!

Patrick Fussl at MCM Tours & Travel in Salzburg was an excellent tour guide! He drove us to Hallstatt & Eagles Nest, but we also stopped many places along the way. I popped open my Red Bull and within minutes Patrick pulled off the road in front of the Red Bull headquarters so I could get a picture with the bulls! Patrick took us to see his favorite views, let us walk by a Sound of Music site even though that was not part of our package and added historical references that really helped us to appreciate what we were seeing even more. I suggest this tour for everyone!
Great tour of Hallstatt and the Salzburg region!

Our family had a really great day with Manfred as he led us on our tour of Hallstatt and Berghof during our time in Salzburg. Manfred was very knowledgeable of the surrounding areas and we had a great time seeing the beautiful mountain views. We got to see a variety of different sights to include lakeside resorts and towns, castles, mountain ranges, famous spots from the filming of The Sound of Music as well as historical WW2 locations. Manfred gave us a lot of time in each location to really explore the different spots and we enjoyed learning about the region. Rain and Snow in previous days had closed the road to Eagles Nest but Manfred quickly pivoted and we had a very informative time exploring Berghof and the underground bunkers. We would definitely recommend Manfred and MCM Tours for sightseeing in Salzburg.
Excellent

Itinerary
Be ready for pickup at 9.00 am at your Salzburg hotel. Make yourself comfortable in your comfortable touring vehicle and experience the beautiful landscape that the famous ‘Salzkammergut’ lake region has to offer. After a short drive from Salzburg you’ll reach the castle of Fuschl. Capture a picture of the castle of Fuschl with the emerald-green Lake Fuschlsee as its backdrop, before heading on to St. Gilgen with Lake Wolfgang, the next photo stop.
15 minutesSt Gilgen Mozartplatz
After a photo stop overlooking the lake and St. Gilgen, there are a few more Kodak-moments waiting with the town hall and Mozart's mothers birth place.
15 minutesNext is the view over the lake to Saint Wolfgang. From that vantage point continue to Hallstatt via Bad Ischl and Bad Goisern.
5 minutesHallstatter See
Having reached Hallstatt and the first highlight of this full-day tour, your private guide will point out the must-sees of Hallstatt to you, which include a beautiful photo spot of Hallstatt, Charnel House (Bone House), Hallstatt Museum, Hallstatt Waterfall "Waldbachstrub", Hallstatt's local residence area and more. You will have 2 hours to explore Hallstatt and all these sites on your own as well as to have lunch in one of the great lakeside restaurants in Hallstatt (at your own expense).
2 hoursKehlsteinhaus
From the Obersalzberg you will access the Eagle's Nest with special busses and elevator. You will have 45 minutes at the Eagle's Nest. Take a stroll to the very close summit Kehlstein to overlook the picturesque Bavarian and Austrian Alps.
From November 1st until about May 10th (depends on the snow conditions of the year), the Eagle's Nest direct access road is closed, alternatively, we offer to visit the Rossfeld summit instead. From this vantage point, soak in panoramic views of the stunning Austrian and Bavarian Alps and the nearby Eagle's Nest. Feel free to choose this option also when Eagle's Nest is opened if you prefer a much less crowded, more local site than the Eagle's Nest.
1 hourAdmission IncludedSalzburger Altstadt
Finally, finish the day with a drop-off at your Salzburg hotel.
