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 very knowledgeable about the history of Salzburg and Austria. She was friendly and funny and showed us the major sights of Salzburg as well as some fun shops to buy local foods and gifts. I highly recommend doing a tour with Michaela.

Great tour with a great guide. Michaela was knowledgeable and enthusiastic. It was cold and rainy so we didn’t want to be outside and she had no issues with being flexible to find something that worked for us. She was extremely personable and we really enjoyed being with her. Would highly recommend.

We had an amazing time! The tour was a great blend of history and culture. We went during the Christmas market season and had some information on the markets thrown in as well which was great. The organ concert was amazing as well. Highly recommend this tour!
