Furthermore, do not forget to visit Hohensalzburg Castle when you will have free time and enjoy the magnificent view of the city.

Coming in Austria tourists are usually looking for traditional beer. Then Salzburg is the best place because the first brewery “Stiegl-Brauwelt” was opened in 1492 and it continues to produce beer till now. Moreover, in Salzburg, you may not only meet Austrians in traditional outfit on the streets but also buy this outfit in special shops.

The ErasBus team prepared an interesting city-game for groups (3-4 people) and the prize (50 Euro for the group). The task is to find nine places that are on the pictures you’ll receive and make photos near these places. So, playing the city-game you will explore Salzburg at the same time.
