Austria holidays
Austria holidays & Austria tours pack a pretty punch for a small country. When snow covered Austria is cross country and snowshoeing central, with a brilliant trail network emanating, in particular, from Seefeld which has hosted the Winter Olympics twice. As well as the Alps’ omnipresence, the Northern Lakes are #nofilter nirvana, and the River Danube weaves its way through the country, with hiking and cycling routes along the way through pretty villages & ancient byways.

The most memorable was everything, from my first foray into Prague to my last walk on the Danube in Budapest. Its the history, the glory, the subjugation, the castles, the rivers and the people. (more)Peter Perlmutter

Memorable parts?
The bike path along the Danube along some of the initial parts of the trip. Early morning fog that would then clear off over the river, the hardwood forests along the hill sides, small historic structures and castles built on their steep slopes.
Tips?
Stop often and take plenty of pictures. There's no rush.
Local benefits?
Yes.

Wonderful hosts, yoga instruction and tour guiding. Nothing was too much for
them. The chef was outstanding and the food was an unexpected highlight of the
stay. Better than any vegan restaurants. (more)Susan Picton

Loved it all, especially the fabulous evening meals at the chalet and the fun we had with the group. The setting is spectacular, and the chalet very comfortable and Sophie and Tobias looked after us very well indeed. I enjoyed the yoga especially the last morning when we had our class outside (more)Jane Roberts

All the festivals we kept stumbling across!
Tips?
You have to pay tourist tax of about ten euros at each accommodation - in Germany this also gives you access to free local transport.
Local benefits?
Yes, they were all local hotels and many didn’t do room service unless requested, instead giving the money saved to local environmental orgs.

Snowshoeing high in the mountains through virgin snow, no one else around, beautiful and hard work rewarded by schnapps and lunch in a cosy Austrian hut at the top. (more)Rachael Chung
Great views of the mountains, exhilarating, challenging hikes and warm, fun atmosphere. We went down the hill on toboggans on the last day which was a first for me in 50 years! (more)Hugo Macey

So many things about the holiday were delightful, I find it hard to pick out one thing as a top memory, but overall, perhaps, the quiet majesty of the location, which I was lucky enough to see in sunshine and after a good snowfall.
Tips?
You'll get the most variety if you are pretty fit and follow their kit list closely. If you have doubts when you see the word vegan - put them out of your mind. I ate amazingly well.
Local benefits?
Although there's no ... (more)Philippa Kershaw
