Overview of your Salzburg tour:

Step into a winter wonderland as Salzburg transforms into a festive dream! Imagine a 100-year-old Christmas tree standing proudly in Residence Square, surrounded by 96 charming market stalls offering handcrafted Austrian gifts. Stroll through the snow-dusted old town, where the scent of mulled wine and the sounds of Christmas carols fill the air. Did you know that the beloved song *"Silent Night, Holy Night"* originates from Salzburg? Inside the majestic Salzburg Cathedral, uncover its fascinating history, admire the nativity scene, and visit the baptismal font of Joseph Mohr, the man behind the song’s timeless lyrics. Wander through Salzburg’s enchanting narrow streets, explore its rich history, and discover how the city’s Christmas markets evolved over time. Find unique, locally made crafts and indulge in seasonal treats like roasted chestnuts and spiced punch. With my deep knowledge of Salzburg, I'll bring the Christmas spirit to life and help you explore like a local.
