Experience Austria’s stupendous countryside en route to the storybook city of Salzburg. Highlights - Pass by spell-binding glacial lakes and mountains - Explore the old town of Salzburg - Walk in the footsteps of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart This is no mere transfer to the city. The drive through the Salzkammergut region will amaze you with its crystal-clear glacial lakes and soaring mountains accentuated with white, limestone deposits. You’ll feel like you’re driving in a landscape painting. No surprise many artists have flocked to this resort area to capture the incredible views. The region’s name means ‘Estate of the Salt Chamber’ and it was here that the Habsburg dynasty became very rich mining the so-called ‘white gold’. Today what glitters are the spectacular lakes carved from the landscape during the Ice Ages. We pass Lake Wolfgang, the region’s largest lake. We also drive around the beloved Lake Fuschl protected by Castle Fuschl. Marshy inlets rim the water that is so clean that it’s drinkable. The visibility reaches six metres and, even though it’s a glacial lake, the water is warm attracting travellers and Austrians alike. You’ll be inspired to belt out an aria or two amid this spectacular scenery. However, the true crescendo will arrive when we reach Salzburg, the home of the 18th century musical maestro Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. We set off to explore its old town; admire the well-preserved historic centre with its elaborate Baroque architecture and well-manicured parks. A UNESCO Heritage Site, Salzburg’s old town retains its old-world charm with a vibrant present-day art and music scene. See the principle sites and hear an aria or two drifting from the many music halls or homes. Languages English, German, French and Spanish Tours in Italian on Tuesday and Saturday

We begin our Vienna tour on one of the most famous and attractive shopping streets in the city: The Graben. Home of the court jeweller Heldwein and the famous porcelain factory of Augarten, the area is littered with imperial architecture, opulent coffee shops, and first-rate eateries. It would be rude of us not to offer you a coffee before getting started properly, so after our brief stroll we will stop for a quick coffee and a snack, but not at one of the famous cafes, because only tourists go there, instead we will head to one of the few cafes that locals still visit in the first, a proper and still functioning ‘Kulturcafe’. To Nasch means ‘to nibble’ and that is exactly what one could do at the Naschmarkt, easily one of Europe’s best open-air markets. It is a mile long and showcases over 120 food stalls and some delectable restaurants that are cooking up some of the best food in the city. Here you will find the most diverse array of fruits, vegetables and delicacies that are available in Vienna from all over the world. While the Naschmarkt is a must-see, any local will tell you that they rarely pay it a visit, unless they fancy fighting out with tourists for the vendor’s attention. Instead every local has their own market that they like to visit, these may not be as big as the Naschmarkt, but they are certainly more lively and less touristy. To that end, you will be whisked away from the Naschmarkt to a real ‘functioning’ Viennese market. Whether that be the trendy Brunnenmarkt in the 16th with its cafes and creative, the lively Viktor–Adler–Markt in the traditionally working class 10th or even the peaceful farmers markt at Karmeliterplatz in the 2nd will depend on the day and the guide. But don’t be afraid to ask for directions to the others, there is never enough time in a day, let alone in a tour to visit everything! Irrelevant of the market, one thing we can promise is that there will be food. Our guides will introduce you to some Viennese guilty pleasures, sweet and savoury and life on the streets that no guide book would ever mention. Pausing to take in Wurstelstand life offers you the chance to taste Austrian’s favourite dish (Hint: it’s not schnitzel) while grabbing a cheeky beer or spritzer (soft drinks are available) will help you rehydrate after the buzz of the markets. All along the way we will sink into the famed Viennese coffee culture. Coffeehouses have played a very important role in shaping the culture of the city over the centuries, with the first cup being brewed all the way back in 1683. The Austrian Inventory of Cultural Heritage describes the coffeehouses as places “where time and space are consumed, but only the coffee is found on the bill.” Our introduction to Vienna’s food and drink scene ends back in the city centre, in front of the Opera house, the perfect springboard location to head off to any number of recommendations our guides will give you. Or you may simply wish to retreat for a cheeky nap back at your hotel, if so your guide can help you with directions.

Your evening tour of Vienna will begin with a look at the beautiful Karlskirche, considered to be the most outstanding baroque church in the city. From here, we’ll walk around the corner to reach our first stop, the colourful Naschmarkt, a popular spot for locals and tourists alike. With its well-stocked market and array of dining options, this is the place to go for all things food-related! Here we will treat you to a very special chocolate tasting. We’re talking handmade, fair-trade delights produced by the eighth best chocolatier in the world! You are welcome fellow traveller, and you can thank us by giving us a 5-star review! After soaking up the sights, smells and chocolate-y delights of the market, it’s time to find out where the Viennese go for a good night out. Not far from Naschmarkt is the 4th District, the part of town that never sleeps! We’ll take you to one of our favourite industrial chic-designed bars that boasts rotating DJs and killer cocktails! Are you in the party mood yet?! Our next stop will be the 16th District, another buzzing square where you will find a cheerful mix of people enjoying the good life. Here, we’ll stop to enjoy some tasty street food from a famous würstelstand, a Viennese food vendor well known for their hot dogs, sausages and other popular local dishes. As we scoff our snack we’ll indulge in a spot of people-watching. Neubau in the 7th district is one of our absolute favourite places in Vienna. We will show you why we love this charming area so much and why it’s one of the city’s leading creative centres, thanks to its cool, quirky stores, bars and restaurants. Here we will stop and to round off a great night, we’ll taste a delicious glass of Zweigelt, an Austrian red wine, at one of our favourite rooftop bars, admiring stunning views across the city. Our tour ends here but before you go, don’t forget to ask us for tips on where to go to continue your Best. Night. Ever!
