Bavarian Mountains and Salt Mines Tour

Panorama Bus Terminal, Mirabellplatz, Salzburg

This bus tour is well worth leaving the city for when you get to visit the salt mines for which Salzburg is named. The four-hour tour travels into the Bavarian Alps to the 500-year-old salt mines of Berchtesgaden. Learn about the salt mines and the history of Salzburg with a two-hour underground tour that includes slides, train rides and boat rides. You’ll have a chance to take home salt from the mines, as well. Dress or bring warm clothes, as the salt mines can get quite chilly.
