About this activity

A private day for the two of you, with a local driver-guide and a glass of Austrian Sekt to welcome you in the car.

In Salzburg we walk the old town together: the Cathedral, the lanes of the Getreidegasse and the Mirabell Gardens, with time up at the fortress and on the Moenchsberg for the view over the rooftops. Then we drive out to the lakes, to Fuschlsee, St. Gilgen and St. Wolfgang on Lake Wolfgang, and back to Salzburg for the evening.

We reserve a table for you at a romantic restaurant for dinner (the meal itself is paid on the spot). If you would like a horse-drawn carriage ride through the old town, tell us and we arrange it as an extra.
