Explore Salzburg live with a local

Sessions run live, not as a recording: you join at a time in your own time zone, and the guide follows whatever you want to see or ask about. Altstadt is worth asking about: the compact old town under the fortress.

Every date has a minimum group size: if it does not fill up, it is cancelled and you are refunded in full automatically. Small groups, real answers, no script.

What a live session shows

  • Hohensalzburg Fortress One of Europe's largest surviving medieval castles, on a hill above the old town.
  • Mozart's Birthplace The yellow house on Getreidegasse where Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born in 1756.
  • Mirabell Palace and Gardens The formal gardens used in The Sound of Music, with views back to the fortress.
  • Getreidegasse The old town's main shopping lane, known for its wrought-iron guild signs.
  • Salzburg Cathedral A Baroque cathedral rebuilt after a 17th-century fire, its dome visible across the old town.
  • Salzach River The river splitting the old and new towns, walked along by most guided tours.

How long does a session last?

Between 0.8 and 2 hours, depending on the guide and the topic.

What if I lose connection partway through?

Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up.

Can I ask the guide anything, or is it a fixed script?

Anything. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
