Your alternative when the river is too low
If your river cruise is cancelled, shortened or rerouted – for example because of low water on the Danube – you don’t have to give up on Austria.
Bob’s Special Tours has been showing guests Salzburg and Austria since 1976. We pick you up wherever you are – at your hotel in Vienna, at your ship in Passau or Linz, or at the train station – and take you in a comfortable private minivan with your own guide. Instead of a plain transfer, you see the highlights along the way.
More time. More value. No rushing, no big coach groups – just your party, your pace and plenty of time at every stop.
Private transfers & tours between Vienna and Salzburg (or vice versa)
Travel from Vienna to Salzburg – or from Salzburg to Vienna – and turn the journey into a day of sightseeing:
Pick-up at your ship in Passau or Linz
Is your ship stuck in Passau or Linz? We pick you up directly at the river cruise dock, take you on a private day trip – for example to Salzburg – and bring you back to your ship in time. Please send us the name of your ship and cruise line, the date, the docking point and your latest all-aboard time. Please bring your passport or ID card, especially if you start in Passau (border controls).
Once you are in Salzburg
Spend your extra days with us: our tours to the filming locations of “The Sound of Music” movie (now 4.5 hours), and full-day trips to Hallstatt and the Salzkammergut lake district.
