Just past St Blasius under the archway....
I was wondering if it is better to book the tour online or book it through the hotel's front desk? And I notice only two agents do the tours, panorama and bob's. which of the two are the better or are there any differences?
it might be the best to go to Mirabellplatz and buy the tickets there, where the tour starts or try at the reception, they normally have the same price, (they get a commission by the company, that is not added to your price, so you pay the same), that is the way it normally works in austria except for opera-tickets in Vienna, where the hotelporter adds quite a surcharge...
We found that much of what we wanted to see within Salzburg, within our limited time spent, was within walking distance. We spent a full day in the Old Town part of the city on the west bank of the river and stayed on the east side of the river, nearer the train station. The views from Hohensalzburg
City tours starting at 9.30 a.m., 10 a.m. and every hour until 5 p.m are quite popular among the visitors of the city.

Departure from Bus terminal Mirabellplatz/St.Andrew's Church
The lovely pegasus sculpture was designed by Kaspar Gras from Innsbruck (1661) and placed here in 1913 after it had been in several different locations. The 4 groups of figures around the fountain symbolize the 4 elements: Fire (Aeneas' flight from Troy), Air (Hercules' battle with Antaeus), Earth (Pluto, lord of the Underworld abducting Zeus' daughter Persephone) and Water (Paris carrying off Helen, precipitating the Trojan War).
It's not very easy to find friends in this city, but once you are in contact with the people here, it can be a start for a good friendship. Many people are a bit prejudicted against foreigners. Exceptions are people working in touristic sectors.
For luggage, just make sure you take good durable bags (you know how baggage handlers are). Shoes: Take brown or black leather shoes. Like I said before, from what I saw, Europeans don't wear tennis shoes unless playing a sport. Better not to stand out.
The fasions I saw were really no different, so just normal sweaters and kakis were perfect for me. Take you digital camera and an extra memory card. There are so many photo ops that you can quickly run out of room on your card. I take my laptop everywhere with me, so I tend to upload my pictrues to the computer evey couple days. This way, I can hop on the internet in a cyber cafe, and order prints that will be waiting for me when I get home.
