I am proud to work as a tourist guide and love to show you my favorite places and sights! And maybe YOU will will find YOUR favorite place here, too. I have guided visitors from all over the world through the beautiful province of Salzburg since 2008. Originally I am from Styria ("The Green Heart of Austria") but my studies in interior architecture and work in the tourist industry as a tour guide and incoming operator initially took me to Amsterdam and then to New York City and Los Angeles for almost two decades. Salzburg became my new home in 1997! The combination of nature and culture convinced me and my family to move into this area.  The city optimally meets my expectations of a place with international flair and interesting history. I would be delighted to introduce you to the variety that Salzburg has to offer, the historical locations in Salzburg, the customs and traditions of Salzburg and its people along with plenty of unique and special places…. . Austria Guide certificate Most tours will be walking tours. But I can arrange for a private car and driver if requested or needed for some tours. I also can accompany you in your vehicle.

Michaela was an absolutely wonderful tour guide - she tailored the tour to be exactly what we wanted to see and do while in the city. She did a wonderful job of explaining the history and culture. We had a delightful time and really enjoyed having her as tour guide - highly recommend!

Micheala was very professional. She was at the meeting point before time and she went out of her way in showing us Salzburg. Her knowledge of Salzburg was great and in addition to the sound of music tour, which we had booked, she also gave us insights into salzburg in general. We are very thankful for her advise to visit Lake Hallstat the next day as we all enjoyed the trip immensely. Thank you Micheala

We had a great tour of Salzburg, focusing in the Sound of Music movie. Michaela was a superb guide and a great person to spend the afternoon touring. Her insights and knowledge of the movie were very educational. We can't wait to sit down and watch the movie again, this time with a new set of eyes and perspective. Her english is perfect, having spent 12+ years in the USA virtually guarantees her fluency. We are already planning our next trip to Salzburg and will certainly book our next tour with her.
