Take a private jet to or from Salzburg and learn what it's like to fly in a deeply convenient style. This is an experience that surpasses even the highest class of commercial airline travel between European cities. When you charter a private jet, even the wide seating room and other luxuries offered by first-class commercial flights start to seem more than a bit bland in comparison.
Here we’re going to cover the essential details of how to make the most of your trip via private jet to or from Salzburg via a luxury chartered flight of the kind that LunaJets specializes in.
Salzburg is Full of History
There is simply too much in Salzburg that’s worth seeing and exploring. This 1300-year-old city is flooded with history, and extremely unique points of interest abound. Salzburg also has a surprisingly energetic and richly diverse food and drink scene that combines beautifully with its cultural jewels.
A scattering of Michelin-starred restaurants is even available if you're looking for exceptionally fine gourmet dining opportunities.
A convenient aspect of Salzburg is its relatively small size. This means that many of the most unique locations in the city are conveniently located very close to each other right inside the Altstadt section of the ancient city center. This is also where you’ll find so much of Salzburg’s fine dining spots and most lively nightlife scene.
A few of the essential sights you simply should not miss after renting a private charter jet to visit Salzburg are worth mentioning specifically.
Visit Medieval Palaces and Fortresses
First of all, there is the sprawling Mirabell Palace, which is located in the city center and surrounded by sprawling, lush gardens. If you adore baroque architecture, this is vast old former royal home is a location that you simply shouldn’t miss.
If you want an even more medieval exploration opportunity even by the ancient standards of Salzburg, the Monchesburg neighborhood that overlooks the city is absolutely worth wandering around. This maze of winding ancient streets is home to the immense and ancient Hohensalzburg Fortress that dominates over all of Salzburg. The city’s fine art museum is also located close to the Hohensalzburg inside Monchesburg too.
Shopping Along Ancient Bohemian Streets
If you’re just dying for an afternoon of carefree shopping that lets you choose from boutiques, arts & crafts shops, antique stores and even stereotypical tourist traps while pausing periodically for a delicious café or deli lunch, then the Lingergasse historical shopping street in the center of Salzburg is absolutely worth spending an afternoon in.
This is the bohemian heart of this city and it opens its arms up to all-comers from any corner of the globe.
Salzburg has so much more to offer than we could possibly cover here. It’s one of the better preserved Germanic medieval cities of central Europe and this alone makes it a place that’s completely worth visiting as a private jet adventure destination for your next adventure.
Luxury Accommodation in Salzburg
The small ancient city of Salzburg is filled with beautiful exploration opportunities and unique strolling options. This UNESCO Heritage listed medieval city is famous for its long history of being a home to classical music and its association with the musical genius of Wolfgang Mozart.
Salzburg offers accommodation in abundance as well, for both budget and highly luxurious tastes.
Hotel Am Dom
As a well-located first option, there is the boutique Hotel Am Dom, which is perfect for avoiding long walks to historic landmarks. This luxurious and highly modern place was created by extensively renovating an 800-year-old townhouse and offers a fascinating architectural blend of medieval style and fully new amenities. Despite its dead central location and luxury boutique status, the Hotel Am Dom is moderately priced.
Goldener Hirsch hotel
Travellers who’ve hired a private jet to visit Salzburg might also enjoy the slightly more distant but deeply historic Goldener Hirsch hotel, which is slightly further from the Old Town but still superbly located and just steps away from the birthplace of Mozart. It’s renowned for its breakfast and other dining menu options.

Where to eat in Salzburg?
St. Peter Stiftskulinarium
The St. Peter Stiftskulinarium is Europe's oldest restaurant, dating back to 803 C.E. While the contemporary Austrian menu is excellent, the history and atmosphere of the various salons and dining rooms are even more appealing. During the Christmas market season, the arcaded courtyard, in particular, transforms into a winter wonderland. The Mozart Dinner will be the highlight for the majority of visitors.
Esszimmer
Since 2004, it has become synonymous with fine dining in Salzburg, earning three Gault & Millau toques and one Michelin star. The interior design is modern yet cosy, with a fireplace, warm lighting, and a glass floor that provides a glimpse into the Middle Ages. Several tasting menus with primarily Austrian and French influences are available, though individual items can also be ordered.
