On the way back to the drop-off zone, you enter the Salzach with a “splash down”, allowing you to see the skyline of the city of Salzburg from a unique and truly once-in-a-lifetime perspective.
Afterwards, one of the worldwide most famous and highly popular Best of Mozart Fortress Concerts in the Golden Hall on Hohensalzburg Fortress, the fortress’ magnificent chamber room and perhaps the most beautiful room in Salzburg. Highly qualified artists, the breathtaking view from the concert hall of the city of Salzburg illuminated against the backdrop of the evening sky and combined with the historical environment of the time-honored Hohensalzburg Fortress all make this concert the highlight of your stay in Salzburg. An experience which is unlike any other!
Enjoy this wonderful combination unique to Salzburg which includes a city round trip and classical concert high above the city rooftops.
