Austria Trips

Why Austria?

Bordered by seven countries, including Germany to the north and Italy to the south, Austria offers a quintessential taste of Central Europe.

From the Habsburgs to the Austro-Hungarians, Vienna has long been the seat of expansive empires, with a glittering heritage to match.

Known as the City of Dreams for its association with Sigmund Freud, and the City of Music for its classical traditions, the Austrian capital captures a sense of historical Europe – all unfolding on the banks of the blue Danube (the very one that inspired Strauss).

While times have since changed, to visit Vienna is to immerse yourself in the pomp and splendour of 19th-century Europe. The ideal destination, then, for your cultured city escape.
