      A memorable and unique experience
      We highly recommend Be Special Tours for a memorable and unique experience. We especially appreciated the personalized attention and the little extras that made the day so special. We visited the Eagle's Nest, the Salt Mines, and several beautiful villages in the lake district. Gray provided so much interesting information and made sure we had a great time.

      Last-Minute Trip to Hallstatt
      When we arrived in Salzburg, we wanted to see Hallstatt but realized getting ther without our own car was a bit of a chore for our group of six. Since I already had booked a tour with be Special tours, I reached out to them to see if they could accommodate a last-minute planned trip to Hallatatt.

      A Truly Special Experience
      We took this tour with Be Special Tours and I can say that they really made us feel special. Our family enjoyed it to the fullest. We saw the lake district area, went on a summer toboggan ride (great fun for the kids), and had some great experiences with a nice mountain lake where we had lunch before arriving in Hallstatt. We enjoyed this little town and despite the crowds, we got a true feeling for the village. We saw so many things we would have never been able to see on our own. I cannot thank you enough for this day!

      Amazing Day with Bernd!
      Thank you for sharing your positive experience! Bernd sounds like an exceptional tour guide. His ability to go beyond the basics and share additional details truly enhances the tour. It's great to hear that you felt comfortable and enjoyed the full day. Safe driving and a comfortable van are crucial for a memorable experience. I'm sure your recommendation will be valuable to others looking for a fantastic tour.

      Don’t use this company.
      Don’t use this company!! I contacted Bernhardt 3 months in advance for a private tour, specifically asking for him to be our guide. The date was chosen based on his availability. Two days prior he emailed to say someone else would be our guide. I expressed my disappointment and received NO response. Be Special is merely a car service, nothing more. Don’t waste your money like we did.

      Not a custom tour…just a car service.
      We were incredibly disappointed with the “custom” tour today. While the Mercedes van is nice and comfortable, what Be Special offers isn’t much more than hired car service. We were driven to the ice caves, and then had separate fees for entrance and a tour. When that ended three hours later, we were driven to the Eagle’s Nest. Again, separate fees and guides. Just to be driven back to our rental apartment. No food or snacks were provided, just one bottle of water per person. Do NOT recommend.

      What a tour!
      What a tour! Despite the history that Bernie explained us in a very interesting way, as well as sharing such a big knowledge about this delicate history, it was a great way for us to see the beauty of this area and the views from the mountain tops. We also saw a great lake that made us remind so much of our trip to Canada. We really enjoyed this day and seeing the beauty of this area.

      Charming Island Palace Tour with Be Special Tours
      Last-minute tour with Be Special Tours was a delight. Guide Bee was entertaining and informative. Boat ride offered stunning reflections. Palace, a replica of Versailles, was intriguing. A relaxing tour perfect for autumn colors

      Fascinating Insight into King Ludwig's Bavaria
      The tour offered a rich background on King Ludwig, enhancing the castle visits and countryside drive. Linderhof Palace, with its impressive park and technological history, was a standout. Our guide Bernie’s expertise provided a deeper understanding beyond the fairytale image. Highly recommended!

      Beauty and physically demanding
      This was a great tour because our driver was friendly, personable, the car was comfortable. He was very proud of Salzburg and the surrounding Towns and anxious to show us all of it. The Ice Caves were a physically demanding exhibit and very cold. Even walking 700 stairs up and 700 stairs down did not warms us up. Very glad we bought sweaters in the gift shop - I was wearing 4 layers and my family was wearing 3. It’s very dark in there and everyone does Not get a lamp so you have to keep up. We thankfully made several stops on the path for the guide to tell us things about the cave or we would not have been able to keep up with the group. I don’t think we would have taken the tour if we had known the physical demands. But I am so glad we went and did it! The beauty of the ice formations is breathtaking!

      Great tour guide!
      Our tour was terrific. Bernd was a wonderful tour guide. He took us literally off the beaten path. He was informative, serious, funny, and shared details beyond what was core to the tour. We never felt rushed and really enjoyed our full day experience. He was a safe driver and the van was super comfortable. We would highly recommend him.

    our group of 4 only had one day to see the area as we stayed an extra day as part of a business trip. We wanted to see as much as possible so we booked a private tour with Be Special Bern was great in advance of the tour as he answered all of my questions quickly and provided suggestions based on what we would like to see and do. They had a nice sized van for us and a driver so that allowed us plenty of space inside the van. The weather was not great the day we went (rain) but we still had a great time. We started with a driving tour of the city to see all the main areas of interest in the city. We did not do the fortress as this is a walking tour with headphones so do this on your own to save time with the guides. After the city we went to a location where they shot many of the scenes from The Sound of Music (house and lake scenes) and then went to the summer castle of the archbishop. After this we did the salt mine tour which was fascinating and a lot of fun. We then toured the lake district and had lunch in one of the towns. We then got to see the Red Bull headquarters followed by a stop at Hangar 7 where the Red Bull owner keeps all of his "toys". After the Hangar we went on to another historical palace downtown and finished our day there. It was a lot to pack in the day but Be Special did a great job narrating and providing history of the area while customizing our tour. Highly recommend them if you are looking for a tour of the area.
