Salzburg & Vienna Sightseeing - Hop on Hop off Bus Tour
About
The Salzburg & Vienna Hop‑On Hop‑Off bus tour offers an effortless way to see the best sights of both cities. The yellow and blue lines in Salzburg cover the historic old town, Mirabell Gardens, Getreidegasse and the impressive Hohensalzburg Fortress, while the red, yellow, blue and green lines in Vienna run through the Ringstraße, the State Opera, Kunsthistorisches Museum, Schönbrunn Palace and the vibrant Naschmarkt. Each bus is equipped with multilingual audio guides—available in 16 languages—and a special “Sound of Music” channel in English and Spanish on the yellow line. All tickets include a free ride on selected public transport in Salzburg, on the line to the Untersberg cable car and the Gaisberg bus. With 24‑, 48‑ or 72‑hour passes starting at €29 in Salzburg and €37 in Vienna, you can explore at your own pace, hop on and off whenever you like, and even add optional extras such as a Danube Canal boat trip or airport transfer. The electric‑powered buses reduce CO₂ emissions, making the tour a climate‑friendly choice for eco‑conscious travelers.
