 On our way to Mozart's town of birth you become acquainted with the beautiful Salzkammergut landscape with its mountains and its numerous lakes, where the Emperor Franz Joseph and his family used to spend their holidays. Skirting Lake Fuschl and Lake Wolfgang, we will arrive in Salzburg, where you will have time for lunch (not included). The afternoon will be dedicated to a stroll through the old city, showing you the most important sights of this old Bishop's seat including the Cathedral, the Festival Hall, St. Peter's Abbey Church and its graveyard (tomb of Mozart's sister Nannerl). You will also see Mozart's birthplace in the Getreidegasse. Perhaps the Edelweiss song from the movie Sound of Music will come to mind while we pass the horse pond. You will have a marvelous view of the Hohensalzburg Fortress from the Mirabell Palace gardens.
