The Joanneum Museum in Graz, founded 1811

Itinerary:

Day 1 Vienna
Transfer by your own arrangements from Vienna airport or railway station to your hotel. Vienna, a sophisticated and elegant city, will soon make you feel at ease with its Austrian Gemutlichkeit - warmth and friendliness. In the evening dine at the historic Griechenbeisl Inn. Overnight in Vienna. D

Day 2 Vienna - Graz (2.5 hrs approx)
After breakfast, travel by rail to Graz and spend the afternoon at leisure in a city that has many tales to tell. The Old Town is one of the best preserved in central Europe. Travel on the Schlossbergbahn to visit the Clock Tower, a highlight of any Schlossberg tour and the symbol of the city. Its heart has been beating for Graz since 1712 - with the original works and one of the oldest bells in the province, made in 1382. Overnight in Graz. B

Day 3 Graz - Salzburg (4.5 approx)
Today, travel by rail to Salzburg, the city of Mozart and Music. The city will enchant you with its tiny, intriguing lanes, its magnificent churches and monasteries and the wonderful Mirabell Gardens. Salzburg is full of romantic charm and surprises. In the afternoon, enjoy coffee and cake at Cafe Sacher and in the evening, attend the Mozart Dinner Concert. Overnight in Salzburg. BD

Day 4 Salzburg
The day is yours to explore the city. Join the Grand Salzburg City Tour which includes Hellbrunn Palace and a 24-hour Salzburg Card, offering free admission to all major Salzburg sights and free travel on all public transport within Salzburg city limits. Highly recommended is an elevator ride up to the 'Winklerterrace' to enjoy the view over the roofs of Salzburg. With all this history, perhaps it's time to bring yourself back to the modern world with a visit to the Mönchsberg Museum of Modern Art. Austria is not just about the past - it's a vibrant, modern state with a respect for what has been, and a firm gaze fixed to the future. Overnight in Salzburg. B

Day 5 Salzburg - Vienna (4 hours approx.)
After breakfast, take time to enjoy more of Salzburg. Perhaps the optional day tour 'Original Sound of Music' may be of interest (4 hours, departs 9.30 a.m.). Make your way to Salzburg railway station for your rail journey to Vienna.

On arrival in Vienna, you will be met at the railway station and transferred to your hotel by private car. Overnight in Vienna.

Day 6 Vienna
Your Austrian Rail Adventure ends this morning. Consider spending more time in Vienna to further explore this modern metropolis and its imperial past.
