A complete vacation in Austria wouldn't be complete without at least one excursion. According to travelers, the most popular excursions in Austria are in Vienna or Salzburg. These cities boast an abundance of medieval buildings, majestic monuments, and irresistible natural beauty.
After all, this is a relatively small country, so instead of a standard tour to Austria, you can go on an excursion to the most interesting parts of the country on your own. For this purpose, you can use public transportation or rent a car.
Prices for excursions in Austria will depend on the length of the itinerary, as well as whether you plan to go on a group tour or an individual tour. For example, an exciting single excursion to Tratzberg Castle from Innsbruck will cost 150 EUR for 3 hours. An equally popular individual tour is a trip to the Vienna Woods. It will take about 4 hours and cost about 350 EUR.
The most popular group excursions in Austria are the expedition to the Wachau Valley. This unforgettable trip will appeal to true connoisseurs of wine, picturesque views and medieval buildings. The cost of such an excursion will not exceed 85 EUR per person. The group consists of 8 people and the duration of the tour is 9 hours.
For beer enthusiasts, there's an Austrian tour called "Visiting Beer." It's available for groups of up to 30 people and costs 70 EUR per person for a 3-hour adventure. Austria's major cities like Vienna, Innsbruck, and Salzburg also offer exciting free city tours.
