Welcome to Austria!

Austria is drenched in history and culture and flaunts its heritage in exuberant fashion. Vienna and its Habsburg palaces and the baroque splendour of Salzburg are a must to see. Of equal interest are Roman archaeological sites at Carnuntum and its medieval festivals. In the country where Mozart composed and Strauss taught the world to twirl, you won’t need to search hard for culture – it waltzes right up to you.

Drink cider with local farmers in Mostviertel orchards, then catapult down the hair-raising Harakiri in Mayrhofen to swim in the crystal cold lakes of Salzkammergut. Enjoy a spa resort at Bad Ischl. There is always so much to do in Austria - visiting castles, palaces or skiing some of the finest slopes in the world.
