Elect's take

"Austria operates at a level of cultural refinement that is difficult to match anywhere in Europe. Vienna is one of the great cities of the world and the alpine regions add a completely different but equally compelling dimension."

Vienna is extraordinary. The Habsburg imperial architecture, world class museums, the Vienna State Opera and a coffeehouse culture listed by UNESCO as an intangible cultural heritage creates a city of remarkable sophistication. Salzburg is one of Europe's most beautiful compact cities, birthplace of Mozart, surrounded by mountain scenery and baroque architecture. The Austrian Alps offer outstanding skiing from St Anton and Kitzbühel to family friendly Salzburgerland resorts. In summer the same mountains provide exceptional hiking, cycling and lake swimming.
