This was our first Private Tour using Viator. We have used Viator extensively, taking over 15 tours. Given this was a Private Tour, it was expensive. Really didn't know what to expect. Well, it was a GREAT experience. Viator used a local company called Salzburg Private Tours, which was somewhat confusing because I didn't understand that it was a company name at first. Anyway, our Guide/Driver, named Carlos (from Portugal) was simply AWESOME! He promptly showed up to pick us up at our hotel in a Mercedes Van (new and well maintained). He was polite, professional and extremely knowledgeable about the history of Salzburg. On our journey to the Ice Caves (first stop), he shared his tremendous knowledge with us. Based on experience, we started with the Ice Caves to avoid the crowds and that was really smart. We were one of the first groups (second one) to tour the caves that day. When we came out, there were a lot of people queued up to get in. Then we went to the Waterfalls (Go

What an amazing day out.
Manfred was my guide for the day and picked me up in time from my hotel, he even suggested bringing a change of clothes in case the weather tuned.
On the way to the ice caves, he pointed out all the sights, explained the history of the area and even suggested other places for me to visit.
The ice cave was spectacular, a little hike up to the cave entrance, nothing to really worry about.
The views from the cave area was lovely and just completed the entire package.
Waterfall was a very nice spot, off the beaten track, doubt if I would have discovered it in my own.
Salt mines was very interesting, more educational than anything else, I did enjoy it,
We were ahead of schedule, so Manfred suggested we visit the town of Berchtesgaden. Bonus!
On the drive back, and after he returned me safely to my hotel, he took the time to give me suggestions on places to visit and activities I might enjoy.
Would recommend thi
