During the city tour you will admire the Opera House and the Hofburg Palace, from where the Habsburg Empire was ruled. You will also visit the famous Schoenbrunn Palace with its extensive gardens, the former summer residence of the imperial family and one of the most important Baroque ensembles in Europe, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Continue the journey through the Wachau Valley, a UNESCO World Heritage Site for its natural beauty, well known for its lush vineyards, fortified churches and legendary castles. The most important attraction in the area is the monumental Melk Abbey, a Benedictine abbey founded in the 11th century, a world-famous baroque jewel! We arrive in Linz, a city full of architectural and natural highlights on the banks of the Danube that offers important architectural works of the Renaissance.

Meal Plan: Breakfast

Departure to Salzburg. Salzburg's worldwide fame is due to the incomparable magic of the city's skyline, the beauty of the surrounding landscape and the good fortune that Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was born here in 1756. The historic city center is dominated by the towers of its churches, its medieval fortresses and, above all, by the massive Hohensalzburg Fortress. During the visit we can admire the cathedral, the Mirabel gardens, the Getreidegasse and the famous Mozart House.

Meal Plan: Breakfast

Travel to the heart of the Salzkammergut, Austria's magical lake district. First stop is Lake Wolfgang, where Mozart's mother was born, and where you can take a boat trip to the charming village of St. Wolfgang. Then continue through alpine scenery to Hallstatt, the famous lakeside village, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Return to Salzburg in the afternoon.

Travel to Innsbruck, the capital of Tyrol, a city that elegantly blends its imperial heritage with a vibrant alpine flair. Its historic centre, dominated by the famous Golden Roof, invites you to stroll through narrow streets full of charm and centuries-old architecture.

Meal Plan: Breakfast

The city of Innsbruck, located in the Inn River Valley and in the middle of the Alps, is the heart of Tyrol. Admire modern architecture and historic buildings, which invite you to embark on a fascinating journey into the past of the Habsburg family. City tour with the most important monuments such as the Golden Roof, the Hofkirche or the Imperial Palace. In the afternoon we ascend with the Nordkettenbahn cable car from the city center to the Hafelekar, the summit of Innsbruck at an altitude of 2,344 m, in just a few minutes. The breathtaking 360° view with the capital of the Alps on one side and the Karwendel Nature Park on the other leaves lasting impressions.

Departure to the highest and most famous alpine road in the country, which runs through the beautiful landscapes of the Austrian Alps. After several bends the declared destination of all visitors is the Kaiser-Franz-Josefs-Höhe. From here the spectacular view opens up to Austria's highest mountain, the Grossglockner. Continue to Klagenfurt, situated at the shores of lake Wörthersee, one of the warmest alpine lakes in Europe. It has a beautiful old town, in whose main square you will find the dragon pond "Lindwurm", a characteristic stone symbol of the city, which will remind you of the legend about the origin of Klagenfurt.
