The city is wonderful, small, and very calm, you can do everything on foot. The old town is very charming, and all the attractions can be visited in a day or a day and a half. The restaurants in the … Full review by geisagaigerdeo

Wonderful, walkable and small city to explore. The old town area on the south/west side of the river has Mozart's birthplace, horse-drawn carriages, baroque churches, and you can take the (funicular… Full review by BlueRidgeTourist

Salzburg is not what it was years ago. Quiet city streets and a chance to discover it for yourself. It’s just shopping shopping shopping. And places to eat. The old world charm is lost. Consumer heav… Full review by Pannipannini
I am keen on the old central Eurpean cafes/coffee houses and wonder which the best are in Salzburg. Thanks.

If you want to visit an authentic, not so touristy Salzburg Café, try Café Wernbacher. This is where Salzburger are hanging out. In the same street there is Fingerlos. They have the best cakes, but it is not that comfortable to hang out for a longer time. Nevertheless I would recommend it for the "real" experience. I should know, as I'm from Salzburg :) We actually avoid Fürst and other Cafés in the old town, because they all are tourist traps. The service is mostly bad there.
Hi Hope you can help! We plan to make a short stop to Salzburg after visiting Vienna and before visiting Munich. Comparing the Hellbrunn Castle ver the Fortress Hohensalzburg, which one is the one that we should not miss? I’m not sure that we can fit them both in the trip. Thanks for any input.

Aloha, we looked at the going to the Castle, but it was away from old town with its cathedral, cemetery, and other sights. So we stayed, took to the tram to the top of the Fortress, ate, enjoyed the wonderful view of Salzburg, and had a marvelous time. But if we were staying longer, the Castle would have been next on our agenda. It was further away from old town, but you can take the city bus to get around, too. Aloha
What time are most shops here open and close? Is it a good idea to go at night (after 6:00?) Thanks!
A:
Shops close at normal European times, and close at 5pm, 6pm at the most. There's no siesta here like in the South of Europe (like Spain) where shops close between 2 and 6pm and …
Shops close at normal European times, and close at 5pm, 6pm at the most. There's no siesta here like in the South of Europe (like Spain) where shops close between 2 and 6pm and open again untill 9 or 10pm. Only restaurants are open later, but even they usually close their kitchen at 10pm (except for maybe pizzeria's), so if you get in late they may not be able to serve you even though earlier customers have not recieved their meal yet.
Where can I find out about free tours in Salzburg, are there any that operate in the morning?
A:
I have never been in a country offering free tours. Tourism is a large part of the economy in many Nations and as such is not free. The previous post by Ramesh is your best bet.
