The tour starts after a personal and musical welcome from our entertainers Dana Hammett and Dmitry Iogman directly at your hotel.
The group will proceed to the first stop, the lakeside palace known as Schloss Leopoldskron. In addition to the nearby Frohnburg Palace, this rococo mansion was used to depict the front of the Trapp family’s villa. Primarily interior scenes were filmed here as well, and it was also the location for the scene in which the children fall into the adjacent lake. Scenes for songs like Edelweiss and “My Favorite Things” were shot here. During the tour, the palace will be viewed from the opposite side of the lake, which offers the very best view of it.
Our next destination provides a breathtaking panorama of Nonnberg Abbey, a location steeped in cinematic and historical significance. This very site marks the inception of the beloved narrative from “The Sound of Music.” As the oldest surviving convent north of the Alps, Nonnberg Abbey is not just a testament to spiritual endurance but also played a pivotal role in the film, setting the scene for the memorable melodies of “Maria” and “I Have Confidence.” Here, you will be treated to an extraordinary view encompassing the majestic Alps and the serene beauty of Nonnberg Abbey. Additionally, for those who wish to immerse themselves further, there is the option to ascend the hill to the iconic gate featured in the film.
Then on to the Frohnburg Palace, which was also chosen as the location for exterior shots of the Trapp family’s mansion. This is where Maria danced along the tree-lined Hellbrunner Allee to the song “I Have Confidence“. We’ll view the Frohnburg from inside the bus. Today it houses part of the Mozarteum University, one of the world’s most famous music conservatories.
Continuing on, the tour takes us to the world-famous Gazebo, which now stands in the park surrounding Hellbrunn Palace. The romantic love scene between Maria and Georg was filmed inside it, as well as the scene for the song “Sixteen Going on Seventeen“.
From Hellbrunn, the tour heads out into the nearby lake district known as the Salzkammergut. The fabulous scenery around the lakes Fuschlsee and Wolfgangsee, where“Do-Re-Mi” was shot, also served as the primary backdrop for the aerial shots at the beginning of the film.
After a brief stop to take photos from a spectacular viewing platform, the Mercedes Minivan makes its way to the idyllic lakeside village of Mondsee. This is where the beautiful basilica stands in which Maria and the Baron von Trapp said, “I do” in the wedding scene.
The tour ends at Mirabell Gardens. This is where the scenes were filmed featuring Maria and the children singing the song “Do-Re- Mi” as they danced around the Pegasus Fountain.
