Vienna to Salzburg with Austrian Train Pass (Duration: 3 hrs)Morning post breakfast, we depart for Storybook region of Austria (Salzburg). With the help of the Flexible 3 Days Austrian Pass you can travel from Vienna to Salzburg.
Welcome to Salzburg! The joke 'If it's baroque, don't fix it' is a perfect maxim for Salzburg: the story-book Altstadt (old town) burrowed below steep hills looks much as it did when Mozart lived here 250 years ago. Beside the fast-flowing Salzach River, your gaze is raised inch by inch to graceful domes and spires, the formidable cliff top fortress and the mountains beyond. It's a backdrop that did the lordly prince-archbishops and Maria proud.
Upon your arrival at Salzburg train station, make your way to the hotel on your own.
Rest of the evening is free for leisure or optional activities

Salzburg: Sound Of Music Tour & Salt MinesFollow in the footsteps of the Von Trapp family and relive the classic movie on the Sound of Music tour. See the Mirabell Palace and gardens, where Maria and the children sing Do-Re-Mi and Residenz Square, which Maria crosses by bus from Nonnberg Abbey – where the real life Maria and Baron von Trapp were married in 1927 – on her way to the Trapp Villa singing I have confidence in me.
The Rock Riding School is a particularly significant location as the real life Trapp family sang there before they fled Austria following the Nazi takeover. In the film, they sing Do-Re-Mi, Edelweiss and So Long, Farewell in a memorable scene. Leopoldskron Palace was used as the Von Trapp family home and while the gazebo used for the famous ‘I am 16 going on 17' scene was here in the film, it is actually at the Hellbrunn Palace.
Head out of town before finishing this part of the tour and visit the beautiful church at Mondsee, where the wedding scene was shot. Continue on to visit one of the salt mines that are central to the history of Salzburg, which means ‘salt fortresses. At the mine, receive protective clothing to keep warm – and to look the real deal!
Travel in a former miners’ train into the heart of the mountain and discover this secret world of kilometres-long labyrinths. Have fun on the miners' slides, enjoy a raft cruise across a subterranean salt lake with a multimedia show that will not light up the underground lake but also your hearts.

The jagged rock spires of the Nordkette range are so close that within minutes it’s possible to travel from the city's heart to more than 2000m above sea level and alpine pastures where cowbells chime. Summer and winter activities abound, and it’s understandable why some visitors only take a peek at Innsbruck proper before heading for the hills.

Visit to Swarovski Kristallwelten {Approx. 30 mins drive from Innsbruck}Breakfast at the hotel. Today you will make your way to Swarovski Kristallwelten. Founded by Daniel Swarovski in the Austrian village of Wattens in 1895, Swarovski has become the world’s leading manufacturer of precision-cut crystal. And today, more than 125 years on, Swarovski remains a family-run enterprise under the management of Daniel Swarovski’s fourth- and fifth-generation descendants.
For Swarovski Crystal Worlds, the multimedia artist André Heller designed 17 underground Chambers of Wonder dedicated to the versatile artistic interpretation of the material crystal. The result is a universe of discoveries and a simply unique experience with every visit.
Kids can explore a play tower, run through a hedge maze, and ride a carousel that would look at home in the palace of any make-believe kingdom. Adults can join in on the fun too, then marvel at the beauty of the Alps from an observation deck or even explore Roman ruins on the site.
The highlight of any visit to the park, though, is The Giant. Carved into a hillside, a waterfall runs from the giant's mouth and hides an entrance to the Chambers of Wonder. Inside, visitors will find 17 rooms with unique installations created by leading artists from around the world. The Chandelier of Grief is one of the main highlights – you can step inside a mirror-lined room with a revolving crystal chandelier that creates haunting shadows and unique light displays. Another sparkling sensation is the newly interpreted chamber “Silent Light”, a poetic installation with real snow and temperatures as low as -10° Celsius.
