Discover Salzburg

Our story

About Discover Salzburg

Discover Salzburg grew out of a simple idea: to give visitors an alternative to crowded tour buses by offering private trips in their own vehicle with a driver who genuinely knows the region. What started as a small driving service for friends and acquaintances has grown into a reliable partner for visitors from all over the world who want to experience Salzburg and the Salzkammergut at their own pace.

From the very beginning, it mattered to us that a tour never runs on a rigid script. Whether it is an extra photo stop at Fuschlsee, a longer break in Hallstatt, or an earlier pickup time at the airport — we adapt to you, not the other way around.

Team

Our drivers

Every Discover Salzburg driver knows the area well, speaks multiple languages, and is familiar with the applicable regulations for commercial passenger transport. Regular vehicle checks and driving safety training are a matter of course for us — your safety is our top priority.

Local knowledge

Our drivers have known the region for years and will show you the quieter corners of Salzburg and the Salzkammergut, away from the tour-bus routes.

Reliability

Pickup times are kept, flights are tracked, and if there is a delay we adjust — at no extra cost.
