Grand Tour of Austria<br />

Austria has a great deal to offer: historic cities, imposing fortresses,<br />

magnificent mountains and sparkling lakes. On this tour you<br />

will get to see some of the country's highlights and hidden secrets.<br />

Suggested programme:<br />

Day 1:<br />

Arrive at your hotel in the Salzburg area and enjoy a welcome drink<br />

and evening meal.<br />

Day 2:<br />

After a relaxing breakfast, travel to the city of Salzburg, home to<br />

Mozart and "The Sound of Music", where we recommend taking<br />

Within 20 minutes from the historic city center<br />

up to almost 7,545 ft above sea level.<br />

enjoy the spectacular view of Innsbruck and<br />

look into the heart of the Alpenpark karwendel.<br />

a guided tour. Your guide will introduce you to some of the highlights<br />

of the city before you have free time to explore on your own.<br />

Why not take a ride up to the spectacular fortress, Hohensalzburg,<br />

which sits high above the roof tops of the city? Return to your<br />

hotel for your evening meal.<br />

Day 3:<br />

Today travel from the musical city of Salzburg to the waltzing city of<br />

Vienna, your home for the next 3 nights. En route drive through the<br />

picturesque Wachau, the romantic stretch of the Danube between<br />

Krems and Melk. Visit the magnificent abbey of Melk and stop off<br />

in the small market town of Krems. The Wachau is also home to<br />

some of the best wines in Austria; if you have time we recommend<br />

a wine-tasting session, a boat trip on the Danube or a visit to the<br />

lovely village of Dürnstein, where King Richard the Lionheart was<br />

held prisoner.<br />

Day 4:<br />

Start your day with a leisurely breakfast before joining your guide<br />

for a city tour. Discover some of the highlights and hidden points<br />

of interest before having free time to explore further on your own.<br />

Not to be missed is a visit to the spectacular "Schönbrunn Palace"<br />

with its wonderful gardens and excellent zoo. In the evening we recommend<br />

a traditional meal in a "Heuriger" (wine tavern) in Vienna.<br />
