As expected, the Salzburg option was the most popular excursion. Salzburg is pretty and you get a good (2+ hours) of free time to explore the city, but man the Salzburg core is packed with people. This is also a LONG amount of time on the bus. About 1 hr 30 min on the way there - but you stop at Mondsee so it doesn’t feel as long. Wished I had more time to explore Mondsee as it was very scenic and ...
This port just didn't connect for us. There are some cute areas of old town, and the churches are interesting. But this felt like the time in port was just too long. ...
Our included excursion was on a day they were having a "festival" so we got to see an Oompah band. Had the Linzer Torte at a recommended cafe.
Visited Salzburg as part of a pre-cruise extension and it was wonderful. Thoroughly enjoyed the Mirabelle Gardens and the shopping area across the river. Hyperion Hotel was wonderful - full of modern touches including motion detecting night lights near ...
Linz is a city and not as appealing as the other stops on the cruise. We had previously been to Salzburg, so we chose to go to on the Cseky Krumlov tour about an hour away. Lovely UNESCO town and worth the trip. ...
We did the Salzburg excursion, and transportation was via a very comfortable coach. We stopped at the church where the wedding was filmed for the Sound of Music, and walked around the fortress of Salzburg. Only reason it is not rated 5 instead of 4 is because there isn’t enough time in Salzburg. ...
Linz is also a place I would relocate to. What a beautiful city. Quite a lot to see and do beyond our tours. The Christmas market and area decor for the season was awesome. ...
