Fantastic. Not to be missed. Salt mine tour was an unexpected highlight of our entire three-week trip across Europe from Bucharest to Salzburg.

We had a very nice driver, Luciano. He was on time and very pleasant. He spoke good English and pointed out sights along the way. We went to Eagle’s Nest, the museum then to the salt mine where we had lunch at the snack bar. The Viator itinerary stated we would visit Lake Konigsee, stop in Berchtesgaden with time to explore and possible lunch at a Bavarian restaurant. We didn’t get to do those things. Those were definitely reasons why I chose this tour.
Excellent Tour that was well worth it

Carlos was an excellent guide and a true professional. He knew exactly where to go, where to stand, and how to navigate the crowds efficiently, saving us a tremendous amount of time and making the entire experience much more enjoyable than it would have been on our own. He was incredibly knowledgeable, personable, and easy to spend the day with. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the Private Eagle's Nest and Salt Mines tour, and Carlos played a huge role in making it such a memorable experience. If you're considering this tour, we highly recommend it. And if you're on the fence about visiting the Salt Mines, don't be. Our family found it surprisingly entertaining and one of the highlights of the day. We were pleasantly surprised by how much we enjoyed it.
Great tour and guide

Our driver was friendly, punctional & attentive to our needs and request. His past experience made the whole trip easy and and relaxing. As a history buff the Eagles Nest was my favorite part of the trip but my thirteen year old grandson loved our tour of the salt mine. We toured several countries in Europe and he said this was his favorite part of the entire sixteen day trip.
Can’t do it all.

The itinerary listed Eagle’s Nest, Documentation Center, the town, and the Salt Mines. Our guide was great, but said that we could not do that itinerary. He said we could do the Documentation Center and a brief visit to the town, or we could visit the Salt Mines. He was correct — we could not have done all of these activities in the allotted time. We were disappointed that the itinerary was so inaccurate.
