Description

Experience the magic of Christmas Eve with a guided journey from Salzburg to Oberndorf, Austria, where the beloved carol "Silent Night" was first performed. This four-hour tour invites you to celebrate the season in a place steeped in tradition and festive spirit.

Your adventure begins with a scenic drive along the Salzach River, winding through the snowy foothills of the Alps. A knowledgeable guide shares stories of local customs and the origins of "Silent Night," setting the mood for an unforgettable evening.

Arriving in Oberndorf, you'll visit the iconic Silent Night Chapel, the historic site where Joseph Mohr and Franz Xaver Gruber debuted their timeless song. The chapel and its surroundings glow with candlelight, creating an enchanting atmosphere unique to this region.

Join locals and fellow travelers in the heartwarming Christmas festivities held outside the chapel, as the church's intimate size means the Holy Mass is celebrated outdoors. Dress warmly to fully enjoy this authentic Austrian tradition under the winter sky.

The evening culminates with a moving rendition of "Silent Night" sung in several languages, uniting everyone in a moment of peace and joy. Secure your place on this special Christmas Eve tour and create cherished holiday memories—book your spot now!
