Review of Salzburg’s Christmas Eve Silent Night Chapel tour, with coach transport, Christmas market time, outdoor mass, costs, crowds, and cold-weather tips.
“Unhelpful tour leader who wouldn't organise a down stairs seat for a disabled man. Our family group of eight was split between two buses with children separated from their parents. Bus driver got lost and school house/museum component didn't happen. Food stall owners only served the locals and ignored the tourists - waited 35 mins in the front row for 4 sausages! So much emphasis was put on getting back to the bus quickly 8 year old was panicked into wanting to leave before Silent Night was sung. I suggest leaving it to the locals.”
