Austria is a land of majestic mountains, tranquil lakes, fast flowing rivers, streams, deep forests, undulating meadows, charming villages clinging to their architectural traditions and cultural heritage.The cities still reflect the artistic grandeur of the old Austro Hungarian empire. Vienna is a whirl of gilded Hapsburg palaces and regal parks on the banks of the blue Danube. Salzburg has been an endless source of inspiration to the prince-archbishops who created its mighty baroque churches, famous son Mozart, whose symphonies regularly headline the Salzburg Festival.

Alpine views are around every corner and ski slopes just a funicular ride from the center. This medieval Old Town of Innsbruck is home to imperial palaces, world-class galleries and Zaha Hadid’s avant-garde designs.

Switzerland is a country from unspoilt mountain forests, lush Alpine pastures, rushing mountain streams and valleys with their rich traditions.. Interlaken is the captivating “capital” of Switzerland’s beautiful Bernese Oberland and a must for every Swiss visit. Lucerne is the scenic city of stunning lakeside and mountain sceneries on its doorstep.
