This list of flight options should be used as a guide only, and you should check each airline’s website for current routes, frequency and schedules. Not all flights operate daily, and may not run for the entire season. You should also heed the latest flight arrival time and earliest flight departure time stated in the connecting travel section, as it may not be possible to arrange connecting travel outside these times. Please do not book your flights until we have confirmed your accommodation to you. Alternatively, our expert reservations team will be happy to offer advice and to make flight bookings for you. We charge £35 per person for our flight booking service (£60 for India and Nepal). Your flights are then covered by our package-booking conditions, which give you greater protection in the event of delay or cancellation, as well as providing ATOL cover.

Marvellous hotels, lovely sights and a good mix of scenery and travel makes this a much more interesting holiday than one might imagine a river based cycle ride would be.
A fantastic holiday in a lovely part of Austria. The cycling was easy and provided a great framework for the day's exploration. There were so many photo opportunities as the area travelled was so picturesque. There was a lovely atmosphere on many parts of the route, meeting fellow cyclists and stopping off at places to eat and drink along the way. The hotels were of the usual Inn travel high standard with good facilities, service and food. It felt very safe in general and so there needed to be less anxiety in terms of the cycling and possible bike theft.Vienna [optional add-on] was a fantastic city, as cities go, and my only criticism is that 2 days was nowhere near enough to explore properly!
We all really enjoyed this cycle tour. The Wachau is a beautiful part of Austria and cycling is an ideal way of exploring it. It was very hot when we went (we hit the heatwave in July), so we didn't stop at as many of the recommended sights, as we would have liked. However, we all loved the lake at Weitenegg (much better than Luberegg), which had plenty of shade and a mid-lake trampoline. The hotel pools were also a blessing: an outdoor one and an indoor one with roof terrace at Maria Taferl, and a small but beautifully formed rooftop pool and terrace at Durnstein. There is also a very good outdoor pool complex at Melk with slides and a diving pool - bring your own towels though, we forgot! The hotels we stayed in on this trip were all good; Hotel Schachner and Gartenhotel Pfeffel were excellent. We enjoyed delicious and copious breakfasts and dinners at all three places, to the extent that we barely needed lunch. We did have the odd ice cream and cake though - regional specialities being apricot tart (it was apricot season when we went so the fruits were everywhere!) and Mohnkuchen, a poppy seed cake. Altogether a very enjoyable week in a lovely part of Austria, and one to which we hope to return - perhaps in spring or autumn next time though!

It was an outstanding holiday from the beginning to the end.... Great customer service from the Inntravel team, quality hotels with superb facilities and timely transfers throughout.... We’re already planning our next Inntravel holiday and we’ve only been back in the UK for 24 hours!
