The best time to visit Salzburg is from September ... until they are revived in March. Smaller attractions and tours may shut down for this low tourist season, though more commonly they reduce ...

And remember, like many of the city's attractions, admission into Festung Hohensalzburg is free for anyone with a Salzburg Card. Restaurants, shops and restrooms are accessible on site.

To be honest, a Sound of Music bus tour wasn’t on my 2024 bucket list, but it ended up being one of my favorite activities!
