Austria

A country of beautiful scenery, Austria gives the visitor spectacular snowcapped mountains, shimmering lakes and delightful cities.

Vienna was once the seat of the Hapsburg Empire and is full of wonderful buildings from that time including the old palaces of Hofburg and Schonbrunn. Salzburg is an impressive city of Baroque architecture with arguably the country’s most impressive medieval castle, and is also the birthplace of Mozart. With our holidays you can visit these and many more beautiful places in Austria, take a cruise on the River Danube or enjoy a locomotive steam railway through the panoramic Ziller Valley.
