- Max YTexas167 contributionsEverything was perfect. Just remember bring layered clothes, weather can change quickly and early morning is cold in April.Written April 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- TommoMelbourne, Australia50,585 contributionsThe Old Town Centre of Salzburg also known as the Altstadt, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996. Its located on the left and right banks of the Salzach River.
Its one of my favourite cities in Europe.
The very old buildings have been preserved from yesteryear and its a joy to walk around all these historic buildings.
When visiting Salzburg its my preferred area to stay as it has so much atmosphere, hotels, restaurants, bars, shopping including designer brands and the annual Christmas Market.Written February 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The garden design was very attractive with its symmetry in layout and geometry. The broad strip of space looked beautiful with the blooms adding colour and elegance. It was a place to appreciate Baroque Garden style in the heart of Salzburg.Written March 25, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Patti BAlcester, United Kingdom47 contributionsFabulous views from the top of Untersberg... although quite slippy underfoot. We took advice of other reviewers and picked up no 5 bus ... last stop is the cable car station. The cable car is packed but very smooth. A must if you are in Salzburg. Cable cars go every 30 minutes .. on the hour and half hour.Written January 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Stirling BOttawa, Canada656 contributionsThe Salzburg Cathedral has been around for 300 years and was where Mozart was baptized so there is a lot of history within the walls. We took the Dom Quartier tour which included entrance to the Cathedral but from the second floor right by the massive organ. The church is airy and imposing, but filled with light. There is also a small museum that has some beautiful religious artifacts.Written January 8, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Martin D2 contributionsThe water games are unique. Loved them. Take care of your mobile phone (you will get -though not soaking- wet) )and go for the water experience.Written April 16, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ThesecretdinerHampshire, UK136 contributionsWell worth visiting and its FREE. good selection of historic Red Bull cars from F1 etc... and rallying as well as a selection of aircraft and a back story for each exhibit. nice shop (although expensive) and a restaurant (also very expensive) on site. if your not driving its a walk up from the main road trolly bus stop and back as no public transport stops at the museum and although its on the airport its the wrong side or where all the transport is. Well worth the visit though and an easy place to get to if you are driving.Written January 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Max MBournemouth, UK19 contributionsLong queues but brilliant place, lots to entertain young children, especially if it is a wet day. Would definitely recommend.Written February 11, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- AttitudeAdjusterGillingham, UK1,024 contributionsEasy to find cemetary next to the funicular station. Lovely to wander around the graves, sadly I was there New Year's Day so the catacombs were closed but it's well worth a visit.Written January 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- JElizJAlsager, UK15 contributionsWe took the bus, easy to get there and buses were very frequent, clean and inexpensive. Great audio tour and the water features were wonderful to watch. We got there at 10.30am and it wasn't too busy. If you want to get soaked you can, but for most you get a tiny spray of water on you. Took advantage of it being such a nice day to wander around the gardens and to view the pavilion from The Sound of Music and had a cooling drink in the cafe. We didn't bother going into the Schloss as our main purpose of visiting was to view the water features. I would strongly recommend.Written June 21, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
