Private Tour to Lake Königssee and Salt Mine Berchtesgaden with Bavarian Lunch

My husband and I had the pleasure of doing a private tour with Sepp to Lake Konigssee and the Salt Mine. From pick-up to drop-off Sepp was the absolute best tour guide we've ever had (and we've had plenty). I won't spoil anything by telling you all the special things he did for us, however, I have to say by the end of the day we felt we had made a friend. Thank you, Sepp, for a wonderful day!

After seeing photos of Lake Königsee and Lake Obersee, I decided to add this tour at the last minute. I’ve never done a private tour before but let me just say—-it was worth every single penny. First, Sepp was an amazing communicator. I felt like all the i’s were dotted and the t’s were crossed by the time the tour came around. He had a bag full of pretzels, croissants, sandwiches and a selection of beverages for us for the car ride to the Alps. Everything went seamlesly! We hopped on the boat across Lake Königsee (where Sepp graciously translated some of the commentary) where we hiked over to Lake Obersee for the most amazing photos ever. We had a fabulous lunch with a couple of beers and a relaxing boat ride back to the shore. My teenage sons said this was their favorite part of our entire European trek. They thought the world of Sepp. The Salt Mine was really interesting but it was difficult to maneuver if you don’t speak German. They have translation audio tour sets but ours weren’t working correctly. But the slides down to the bottom of the mine were awesome. It was one of the best days we have ever had as a family and I am so great to Sepp for all of his insightful history of the region and his jovial demeanor that made the day light and fun. I highly, highly recommend taking a tour with Sepp!
