The Original Sound of Music Tour (4 hours):
The hills are alive with the Original Sound of Music Tour! After you depart Mirabellplatz with your professional guide, visit breathtaking landscapes and locations, and see where the famous musical, The Sound of Music, was filmed. Highlights of the Original Sound of Music Tour, recommended by Maria von Trapp, include a tour of Mirabell Gardens, where Maria and the children danced to 'Do-Re-Mi,' and a look at the wedding church at Mondsee. In between film locations, relax and listen to the famous songs and lyrics from the film, including 'Edelweiss,' 'Sixteen Going on Seventeen' and, of course, the glorious title song 'The Sound of Music.'

Tour company well organised and helpful. Knowledgable local guide and Sound of Music guide we had was hilarious. The Sound of Music Tour doesn't officially include the Mirabell Gardens, although the tour guide did mention this at the start, but as the tour bus starts and finishes outside the Mirabell Palace you only have to walk to the gardens free of charge (if you do an afternoon winter tour and only have one day in Salzburg, visit the gardens beforehand (as part of the historical walking tour or independently) as I suspect it will get quite dark by the time the bus returns. Highly recommended.

Having seen the Sound of Music as a child multiple times in the '60's, I was living my childhood dreams!! Such a well done tour of the major places from the movie, and loved hearing songs from the movie during the longer bus riding intervals. Guide was wonderful, and very helpful with pictures, etc. If you're a Sound of Music fan, don't miss this tour.
The Historical Walking Tour was excellent, and gave a great overview such that we were not feeling lost on our subsequent trips into the Historical City area... well done!
