I loved the trip from Salzburg up the mountain. It was an amazing drive. I also liked the two slides in the mines; they were quite fun. The guide was very funny. I would recommend this tour to others.

The tour in the actual salt mines was a little rushed.

This tour was awesome. My only suggestion would be to lengthen the time in Berchtesgaden if possible.

Scope of the tour was excellent, but the guide in the mine was dreadful - no English, and did not wait for people to see things. He raced ahead all the time, leaving a very strung out group. Did not wait for group to reassemble before pointing out things.

The driver on the tour was not very friendly. He was very fast in explaining the things. Also, the tour could have been better by starting it on time. They started around 930 instead of 9 and the tour ended in time. But the salt mines were fun.

The tour was not great in the salt-mines. There should be an English speaking tour for better understanding of the salt-mines.

Our tour guide was great, very knowledgeable and helpful. The salt mines didn't open until 11.30 so we had our own personal tour of Obersalzburg! However, the salt mines were disappointing. Our tour was meant to be in English but what that actually meant was the guide spoke German and we had a couple of audio recordings on the way round the tour and got left behind whilst we listened to them! We've been to other salt mines in Austria and Poland and they were much better. The slides were good though, highlight of the visit.

No live English speaking tour guide. It felt a bit like a dull science lesson but the slides were great.

The Salt Mines were not such a good value for the money. I expected better.
