The enchanting Austrian resort town of Zell am See delivers two standout tours worth your time and money. The Christmas Magic walking tour packs local history and seasonal charm into a well-organized 2-hour stroll, hitting the festive market and the town’s gorgeous Parish Church. For a grander adventure, the private day trip from Salzburg is my favorite – you’ll get your own guide and transportation while discovering medieval castles, taking in stunning Alpine panoramas, and enjoying peaceful lakeside walks at your own pace. Let’s explore these memorable tours in detail.
