Local tips
- Purchase a Salzburg Card for unlimited public transport and free entry to major attractions like the Hohensalzburg Fortress.
- When dining, it is customary to round up the bill or add a 5-10% tip by telling the server the total amount as you pay rather than leaving cash on the table.
- Maintain eye contact and say 'Prost' when clinking glasses during a toast to avoid appearing impolite.
- Always validate your bus or train ticket at the blue or orange machines before boarding to avoid heavy fines from frequent ticket inspections.
