As others have said, these are 2 different trips. The morning was spent exploring the salt mines on a train, a slide and a raft - great fun! The afternoon trip to lake Wolfgang was beautiful. Quaint little villages and stunning scenery.
-
This really is 2 separate tours, even with separate guides. Both were great, just seemed like a lot of wasted time driving back and forth to Salzburg. Also, spent a lot of time dropping other tours off, since one bus can be used for multiple tour groups.
-
Great.
-
The tour was split into 2 parts: salt mine and then lake districts.
The view to the salt mine and dropping by the bavarian town was beautiful though the salt mine was a little too commercialize for my liking. However the lake district tour to st gilgen and st wolfgang was great! Pretty towns! -
The salt mines visit was excellent. We had a good time sliding and riding onto the cart
-
