Europe Austria
Romantic Chalet Villages in a Mountain Setting
Welcome to Austria – a country full of majestic mountains, fascinating history and warm hospitality. From the splendid capital Vienna to the picturesque Wachau and the impressive Alps – Austria has a wide range of varied destinations to offer. The Vienna State Opera and the impressive Schönbrunn Palace bear witness to a rich cultural tradition, while the unspoiled nature of the Tyrolean mountains invites unforgettable outdoor experiences. Salzburg, the birthplace of Mozart, enchants with its baroque flair and its proximity to the dreamlike lakes of the Salzkammergut. These places are perfect for a road trip on which you can discover the most beautiful sides of Austria – breathtaking landscapes, historic cities, idyllic villages and, of course, excellent culinary specialities.
- Thanks to its proximity to Germany, reaching Austria is effortless: direct flights from Frankfurt, Munich or Düsseldorf to Vienna, Salzburg or Innsbruck take only around 1 to 1.5 hours, and Salzburg and Tyrol are equally easy to reach by car or train.
- The winter season from December to March transforms Tyrol and Vorarlberg into a skiing paradise, while the summer months from June to September invite you to explore the Salzkammergut and Carinthia's mountain lakes and hiking trails at a pleasant 20–26 °C.
- Whether a private tour through the Alps, a bespoke chalet stay with a private ski instructor, or a cultural city break in Vienna and Salzburg, Austria can be shaped entirely around your wishes.
- Austria combines beautifully with Bavaria, South Tyrol or Slovenia, and also lends itself to a multi-day Danube river cruise through several countries.
- Vienna's coffee house culture has been recognised as UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage since 2011 — a symbol of Austrian hospitality and way of life.
- From Wiener Schnitzel and Sachertorte to outstanding wines from the Wachau Valley, Austrian cuisine offers a richly varied journey of flavours, rounded off by Vienna's storied coffee house tradition.
- Grand palaces such as Schönbrunn and the Hofburg, Mozart's birthplace Salzburg and the Salzburg Festival make Austria a hub of European music and cultural history.
- The range of exceptional stays spans historic city palaces in Vienna, exclusive chalets in Tyrol and wellness resorts on Lake Wörthersee.
- A private box at the Vienna State Opera, guided off-piste ski touring, or a hot-air balloon ride over the Salzkammergut rank among the country's most unforgettable experiences.
- Austria is equally suited to a romantic city break for two and a multi-generational winter holiday in the Alps.
