Salzburg: 2-Hour Guided Walking Tour with a Photographer

Your tour kicks off in the heart of Salzburg, where you’ll meet your guide and start with a relaxed walk through the beautiful Mirabell Gardens—perfect for soaking up the city’s baroque charm and getting a feel for its history. From there, it’s time to leave the busy streets behind and head up Kapuzinerberg, a quiet forested hill with some of the best views of Salzburg and the impressive Hohensalzburg Fortress towering above the city. It’s a bit of a climb, but totally worth it. The adventure continues as you wind your way down through the narrow, romantic Steingasse, one of the oldest streets in town, before crossing the river into the lively Getreidegasse—home to Mozart’s birthplace and full of that classic Salzburg vibe. You’ll finish the tour in the old church quarter, surrounded by grand baroque buildings and hidden corners that feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Throughout the tour, your guide (also a professional photographer) will be capturing your experience with natural, high-quality photos. You’ll get at least 50 edited shots delivered via a private gallery within 24h—so you can just enjoy the moment and leave the camera work to someone else.

The bike ride was fantastic and the guide great but it felt like a rip off as we’d booked for 4 hours yet it seems the guide only had it booked in for 3 (she kindly did 3 and a half hours) and I hadn’t realised the cost of bikes weren’t included (it was in the detail of the booking but I’d missed it and I assumed a 4 hour bike ride would include bikes?)! In the end they didn’t charge for the bikes which was good. Impressed with the guide but not the get you guide service.

This is highly recommended. Edwin arrives on time and he is very academic and professional. He has a very good historic knowledge about the place and he will fill you with that. Edwin will point out the best spots as recommendation for your next activity and for the photograph of course! Pictures are really great. Edwin also translating everything in English so I can understand which I am grateful for. This photowalk really exceeded my expectation. Thanks Edwin!

A+++ tour guide. What a great experience! Edwin took the time at the beginning to understand what we were most interested in seeing/learning. We learned and saw so much that it was hard to believe that we only spent 2 hours together. Besides really enjoying our time with Edwin, he gave us the best suggestions on how to spend the rest of day. We only had one day to enjoy Salzburg and we are so very happy with how we spent our time there.
