I was pretty unhappy with G Adventures at the beginning as I had expressed concerns with my health and wanted to cancel but they wouldn’t refund my money. However, the guide that I had, Andrei, was so incredible. He was so comforting, helpful, kind, and fun. I was so scared going into it but Andrei was so amazing and I truly could not have asked for a better guide. If I could give him a million stars I would.

Absolute must. Everything from beginning to end was top notch. Stephan's availability and commitment to making this an extraordinary experience was much appreciated. With very short notice he was able to put together a tailored trip to meet all of our requirements.

Isabel • traveled in February
The trip was well planned among sites in different countries. Tour leaders Albert from Barcelona and Marcia were caring and professional. Other local tour guides in different countries were full of knowledge as well. The trip has its flexible itinerary such as free time in Budapest or Rome, so that tourists have a bit free time to discover the famous historical cities. Albert even made a customized little short stop at Innsbruck in Austria for us despite it was a long driving journey that day. The bus was comfortable and two drivers drove carefully and efficiently. I felt safe throughout the trip, not to mention the good and friendly people I met from all over the world. People came and went at different sights but it didn't feel a bit bad about the trip, making new friends has always been a pleasure. 9 days for less than USD1000 with professional tour leaders, well carried itinerary and comfy single hotel rooms without single supplement, I will try other euromundo trips whenever it is good for me and I will suggest to you as well. It's not a luxurious, high-end kinda trip, but u still feel that every dime you've spent was worthy.

Best time to visit Austria and Italy
- Spring 2026
Spring comes alive as mountain flowers start blooming and cafe terraces reopen. Our April-May departures let you experience both sides of the Alps - first exploring Rome's ancient sites and Florence's Renaissance art without the crowds, then heading north as mountain passes clear. The Lucerne-to-Vienna routes work especially well in spring when the solar-powered cable car up Mount Stanserhorn runs and local rangers help spot native wildlife. You'll catch prosecco tastings right as family wineries bottle new vintages and see Venice before summer fills the canals.

- Summer 2026
Summer brings long days perfect for exploring from Rome to Budapest. Our travelers love the evening activities - boat rides on the Danube in Budapest, dinner in Vienna's Grinzing wine village and late-night ghost tours through Venice's quiet canals. The mountain sections open up completely; you can take lake cruises past Austrian castles on Traunsee and explore high trails around Kitzbühel. Our guides know how to balance indoor and outdoor time - visiting St. Peter's Basilica early to avoid crowds then spending afternoons in shaded piazzas, mixing cultural sites with cool breaks.

- Fall / Autumn 2026
Fall catches Italy and Austria at their most atmospheric. Our travelers follow the wine harvest through Veneto's prosecco country, stopping at family wineries to learn the art of making the perfect Bellini. The mild weather suits city walks - ideal for food tours through Rome's Trastevere district and market visits in Florence. Mountain areas like Innsbruck and Salzburg show their golden colors, while Vienna's parks turn lovely shades of amber. These autumn routes mix food experiences with cultural highlights nicely - start your day at a Viennese coffee house, explore Hofburg Palace and finish at a traditional tavern in the wine hills.

How Do You Best Experience Austria and Italy Together?
Looking to combine these two amazing countries? You'll want to hit the major cities - Rome Florence and Venice in Italy then Vienna Salzburg and Innsbruck in Austria. The train system makes it super easy to hop between them all. For something really special take a drive through the Austrian Alps on the Grossglockner High Alpine Road it reaches an incredible 8,215 feet up or wind through the Italian Dolomites on the Great Dolomites Road the views are just breathtaking.
How Much Time Should You Set Aside for Austria and Italy?
You'll want to give Italy at least 10 days there's just so much to take in with all the different regions and cultural spots. Austria needs about 5 days minimum to really experience those imperial cities and stunning alpine landscapes. If you're doing both countries together aim for 2 weeks that'll give you enough time to not feel rushed and really soak it all in.
What Kind of Cultural Experiences Can You Have?
Venice is amazing for watching master glassblowers at work you can see them creating beautiful Murano glass pieces right there in their traditional workshops on Murano Island. Want to get hands-on with Italian food? Try a cooking class in Florence where you'll learn to make pasta from scratch it's such a fun experience. For something really special catch a classical concert in Vienna at the Musikverein or Staatsoper the acoustics in these historic venues are just incredible.
What's the Best Way to Get Around?
The high-speed trains are your best friend here they run all day between the major cities and both countries have great rail systems - ÖBB in Austria and Trenitalia in Italy they're comfortable reliable and make crossing borders super easy. Regional buses can get you to the smaller towns and rural spots. If you want more freedom rent a car especially for those mountain areas. Just so you know the train journey between Austria and Italy takes about 13 hours but it's a really comfortable ride.
Are There Any Hidden Gems for Getting Around?
The Great Dolomites Road is just incredible it takes you through these dramatic mountain passes and cute villages with views that'll take your breath away. Then there's the Alpe-Adria Cycle Path connecting Salzburg to Grado on Italy's Adriatic coast it's becoming really popular with travelers who love getting off the tourist trail. Our guests always come back raving about these routes they love how you get away from the crowds see amazing scenery and can really be active outdoors.
