Very good - Wolfgangsee was absolutely the best part, so beautiful. 5/5! Bring swimmers and a portable charger - this bus was the first of Gray Line’s I’ve been on without charging ports on the bus.

This was a long but lovely day to Salzburg and Wolfgangsee. Our tour guide Monika was absolutely wonderful and provided a great experience. They aren’t allowed to guide in Salzburg so be prepared to be on your own, but I thought it was perfect!

Hop aboard a comfortable and climate controlled bus at a centrally-located meeting point in Munich. Relax on the drive and spy the enchanting Chiemsee, also called the "Bavarian Sea," as it is the largest lake in Bavaria.
Arrive in Salzburg, the city of Mozart and have around 2.5 hours to see the city's impressive buildings, take in the vistas, and wander through the Baroque Old Town. Have time to take in sights like the Hohensalzburg fortress and the birthplace of Mozart. 
Spend your free time checking out the cathedral, Hellbrunn Palace, and the fountains. Take a stroll through the Old Town to uncover boutique shops and eateries offering culinary delicacies.
Get back on the bus and, in the summer (from April until October), travel thorughthe Salzkammergut to the Wolfgangsee. Purchase a boat ride to St. Wolfgang, the Hotel zum Weißen Rössl, and see the pilgrimage church. 
Drive by the Mondsee, a location for the film "The Trapp Family." In the winter (from October to April), instead of the visit to St. Wolfgang you'll get to enjoy more time in Salzburg. During December enjoy the colors and aromas of Christkindlmarket Christmas market.
Return to your meeting point in Munich by bus at the end of your tour.
