This sounds great to me as I am keen to have the experience of skiing in Austria but I have never been skiing before (never even seen snow!)

The website I found this on really only gave that short description so I tried doing a search of my own for an official website but all I can find are the…

Hi,

I got a urgent question. I have a Eurail pass and I've checked my itinerary for my route from Budapest Keleti station to Venezia Santa Lucia station includes a bus trip on an OBB-Intercity Bus (number 835) that I have to take from Villach Hbf to Venezia Piazzale Roma. Is my Eurail pass valid for this particular bus?

I will be in Vienna for two days in mid-December, en-route to the US from Dubai for the Christmas holidays.

This will be my first time in Vienna and at the Christmas markets, and I am looking forward to seeing both.

I have a few questions which I hope people will be able to answer:

  1. Do the markets have a different personality, perhaps with a different theme to the items for same (which begs the question of what exactly is for sale at the Christmas markets?)

  2. Are some markets…

Hi,

I'm planning on spending 2-3 nights in Hallstatt in December and would like to know if there are any good nature-like things to do at this time like a day walk somewhere. Are there specific tours that do day walks in Hallstatt?

Also, are there any hostel-type/budget accommodations in Hallstatt?

Thanks.

My wife and would like to visit Austria and Florence (10 days) mid Winter 2011 (Any Austria/Italy Holidays to avoid?).
We'd like to split the trip up between snowboarding in Austria and visiting Florence.
My wife is learning to snowboard, I've been snowboarding for 15+ years and we are both in our early 30's.

My wife hates changing hotel rooms, so a two destination trip might be our limit.
Traveling from Philadelphia (or Newark, NJ airport)

A few questions I have:
First; anyone have a perfect…
