3.From Salzburg Romantic Carriage Ride through the Countryside

★★★★★★★★★★4.6 · 32 reviews · 4 hours

Leave Salzburg with a private guide and ride by horse-drawn sleigh or carriage through the countryside near Lake Wolfgang. Snow decides whether you glide on runners or roll on wheels. You’ll have time in St Wolfgang for coffee, a lakeside walk, or seasonal Christmas markets. Guides may include Alenka, Werner, Josef, or Lisa.

“Beautiful surroundings; sleigh and mounts in fabulous trim; and a local tour guide to escort "to" and "from" the sleigh location (arrived perfectly on time, unfailingly courteous and informative). The most romantic may cavail at the driver's sensible perference for compacted snow on paths rather than risking the snow drifts - but we found it a wonderful experience; perfect for small groups and families.”
