tour guide salzburg or innsbruck

hello, I’m going to be following some of my dad‘s footsteps from World War II in and around Salzburg and Innsbruck.
I have some photos He took in 1945 and I’d like to try to find some of these places, so I’m looking for a tour guide who might be older and knowledgeable in the area in and around these towns. Who might be able to look at the photo and lead us to that spot . If anybody knows anybody who would fit the bill I would appreciate you letting me know.

thank you

Innsbruck belonged to the French occupation zone, whereas Salzburg was US zone. Therefore I guess that the pictures were taken more likely in Salzburg than in Tyrol.

Salzburg refers to both the State of Salzburg and the City of Salzburg, which is the state's capital.

Hofgastein is in Salzburg state, Hechtsee in the State of Tyrol, but right at the border to Bavaria (Germany).
