The activity was purely for being in Hallstat. Though there was a guide, the guide was mixing languages with most being non-English. It was helpful for her to share some information along the way, but was only speaking in the bus ride back and forth. Nothing much of a tour is included when you have arrived. The location itself is sadly under renovation, so we were just there to soak in the environment and the touristy views. Other than that, the place is nothing special and was concluded slightly before 2pm, where we had enough time to roam around Salzburg, ending the whole trip comfortably in one full day. The price does not feel justifiable, but will be helpful if you wish to skip the inconvenience of changing bus rides or train + boat rides
