35 Aerial Tramway, Kitzbuhel, Austria

Advantages: Great scenery in the summer
Disadvantages: A long way by coach

...I have recently been to Austria on holiday, as a regular traveller I have visited Austria on many occasions during the winter and the summer.

If you are contemplating taken a summer break there are a number of places to visit and things you you must do while your there. First things first, Places to visit. Salzburg. This city is one place you must visit, it offers too many places of interest to mention, but one way to see all of theses is to take one of the many guided tours around the city, such as the Sound Of Music tour which visits the buildings etc used in the film.

Advantages: Great scenery, Great Food
