    Getting TO/AROUND: It is extremely easy to get to Vienna by train. Trains arrive and depart nonstop to Ljubljana, Budapest, Zagreb, Munich, Salzburg, Innsbruck, Venice, Zurich, Bregenz, and many other surrounding cities. You'll find the Austrian trains very efficient and comfortable and many have onboard restaurants that are reasonably priced. Below, you will find a website that lists schedule, fares, and other pertinent information.

    If you are interested in buying a railpass for Austria, try www.raileurope.com. They can come in handy if you expect to cover long distances and plan on staying a week or longer.

    Getting TO/AROUND: If you're planning on spending a week or so in Austria and going from one end of the country to the other then the railpass is a good buy. From Bregenz to Salzburg it's about $50 and then from Salzburg to Vienna another $50 so you almost get your money's worth in two trips. You also receive some bonuses such as: Danube river trips with DDSG Blue Danube: scheduled trips Melk - Krems, Vienna - Dürnstein- Vienna (on Sundays only), sightseeing trips by boat in Vienna: 20% reduction

    Danube river trips with Wurm & Köck (Linz to Passau): Reduced rates.

    'Swarovski Crystal Worlds' in Wattens, Tirol: Special prices.

    ÖBB-lounges in Wien Sued station, Wien West station and Salzburg Hbf for 1st class pass holders

    Price List:
    3 days in 15 days (1st class) $164.00 (second class) $112.00

    Additional Rail Days $22.00 $16.00
