Self-guided rail holidays in Austria

If you wish to discover the highlights of Austria, holidays by rail are a great way to do it. An enticing combination of spellbinding mountain scenery, warm hospitality and great cities makes our Austria multi-destination holidays – self-guided adventures through the very heart of Europe – a thoroughly enriching experience.

Austrian multi-destination holidays –

explore the ‘crossroads of Europe’

Our rail holidays in Austria take you through some of Europe’s most spectacular mountain scenery. Sprinkled with jewel-like lakes and laced with broad, fertile valleys, the landscape is a dream for the modern-day traveller. Self-guided, and armed with our comprehensive notes, you have time to take in the views, and to admire some splendid cities – Innsbruck’s cobbled streets and Vienna’s famous Kaffeekultur – while taking things at your own pace.
