Austria Self-Guided Tours

Nothing introduces you better to the delights of Austria like a trip down the Danube, where its banks are rich with history, cultural treasures and sunlit vineyards. Austria may look small on the map, but most of it is vertical, a mountainous country with magnificent panoramas. It’s a wonderful place to watch the spring sprung, and the wildflowers cover the fields. Austria is also a country rich in culture and history: try one of Vienna’s fabulous coffee houses and discover the phenomenal art of the city or the charm of the vine road. Wachau, the crystal-clear lakes of Salzkammergut, not to mention the castles and abbeys... those are just a few things you will discover during the tour. Moreover, the Austrian food is spectacular and delicious, try the traditional cakes or the delicious goulash to have a taste of Austria.

REASONS TO VISIT AUSTRIA

Its highly liveable cities: - In addition to its aforementioned architectural beauty, Vienna has been named world’s most liveable city on several occasions by Mercer and the Austrian capital is a cultural, economic, and academic hub for this very reason. Vienna usually gets all the fame but the other Austrian cities certainly also merit to be mentioned. Salzburg and Graz generally convince locals and travellers alike with their laidback feel, their cultural institutions, and their innumerable food and nightlife options.Another major factor is the proximity to nature, which is a constant advantage of every Austrian city.
Its immense architectural beauty : - Vienna is one of the most beautiful cities on the planet and a great blend of different architectural styles. In addition to that, the smaller Austrian cities, notably Innsbruck, Salzburg, and Graz, delight architecture enthusiasts with their picturesque medieval alleys and their manifold castles and other imposing structures.
Its mouthwaring cuisine:- Austrian cuisine is hearty and characterised by lots of regional variations. The most famous dish is obviously the Viennese Schnitzel but Austria has many other delicacies which will delight even the most demanding foodie. Much like its service, Austrian food is generally high-quality and comprised of local products.

Its famous art, music, and literature:Austrian classical music certainly needs no introduction. The name Mozart is still associated with musical perfection and sheer unparalleled talent over 200 years after his death. Other musicians like Haydn and Schoenberg made Vienna the world capital of music before most countries even had a music hall.
