Hello my dear guests, I was born and raised in Salzburg. I did my University in Kufstein, Austria. Since my studies I was doing tour guiding. I lived for about 10 years in northern Italy (close to Milan) where I wrote my theses, worked there in a company and did my license for becoming a tour guide in the region of Lombardia. My wife brought me back to Salzburg where I immediately did my license for tour guiding and also for being able to drive the people around. My passion is it to concentrate and learn more about my guests and fulfill their interest and giving you a great time during your vacation. Looking forward welcoming and hosting you in Salzburg, Munich, Linz, Vienna, or Innsbruck I am a licensed Austria guide. I have the license of driving the people around (please check for the M behind the windscreen and in the usage of the car must be code one from 22-31). All licenses can be checked any time and are carried with in the car or personally. I am Austria Guide for english, italian and german and I have a panorama glass roof van limousine service.

This tour will combine spectacular mountains, crystal clear waters, gentle people, untouched nature and history. From the city of Salzburg we will pass by the city of Hallein, where one of the co-composers of the Christmas carol "Silent night" was buried. Let me take you to Bad Dürrnberg, where the history of the celts and 2,500 years of salt mining history become alive. You have the possibility to see the saltmines, fun for children and older children. Enjoy wearing a miners suit and slide down the old slides, as the miners used to do. Then continue to pass the border to Germany to the Obersalzberg, the summer residence of Hitler. Lots of history waits for you and see the Hitler's eagle's nest on top of the mountain (only accessible between May and October) and enjoy a summer toboggan ride before seeing the village of Berchtesgaden, with a summer residence of the Bavarian kings. See then crystal clear lakes bedded in the mountains: quietness and views that you want to remember for long time!
We take a lot of tour with Toursbylocals and this was one of the very best. Bernhard is totally professional and went out of his way to make sure we had a good time. We had front of the line tickets at every stop and he took us to see things that were “off limits” to others. Our trip to the Eagles Nest was a bucket list item and he made the day special. I recommend him to anyone visiting the area who wants to go on a terrific tour.
Peter was a great guide, very knowledgeable and informative. We had a very enjoyable time with him. He got us everywhere at the head of the line with inside tips. We couldn’t be more pleased.
Our tour day with Bernard was fantastic. He picked us up promptly at our hotel and made changes to our day based on our requests. He was very knowledgeable and it is obvious he loves his city and country. We enjoyed the history he shared with us. He had pictures from previous days to compare with present. He knew many of the people we encountered. And we enjoyed our time with him. He even made recommendations for our continued travels on which were right on target. I would highly recommend.
We travelled for a day trip from Vienna to Salzburg for an all day tour of Salzburg and driving trip to the mountains. Bernhard was knowledgeable of history and culture and had a fun approach to blending interesting details and experiences. We very much enjoyed our visit to this fascinating place with spectacular views. Bernhard provided a great deal of flexibility, tailoring the day to our interests and comfort. He chose the perfect lunch spot and clearly is well-known around the Salzburg region. A beautiful day!! I highly recommend Bernhard.
We had an amazing day with Bernie and cannot recommend him highly enough! We had limited time to see Salzburg and get to Obersalzburg and Eagles Nest but Bernd made the very most of our time. The clouds were hovering on Eagles Nest but that part of the day was still incredible. We were going through doors that no other tourists were and seeing things that we never would have if we hadn’t had his direction. Book with him now!!
I spent the day with him and he is both knowledgeable and quite a lovely person! I would highly recommend
The tour whisks away from the city to the beautiful mountain area south west of Salzburg. Passing by the second biggest town, called Hallein in the area of Salzburg we will drive to Bad Dürrnberg, where the Celts mined salt 2,500 years ago and you can enter the Saltmines (extra entrance fee). Then we'll drive through a panoramic road to the bavarian mountain skyline and end up at the Obersalzberg where you can visit the Kehlsteinhaus (Hitler's eagle's nest: only between may and October accessible) or the Documentation center (both extra fee). We will make a stop at the village of Berchtesgaden - a typical alpine village and the former royal palace where you also have time for a lunch before going to one of the mountain lakes. You have then the possibility to see the Lake Hinter (a small and crystal clear watered mountain lake) or the King's lake (one of the most famous lakes in the area and also visible from the top of Eagle's Nest), bedded in the middle of mountains. Enjoy a short hike along the lake.
