Austria & Germany

1 itinerary · 0 open departures · 0 missions

Austria and Germany together form one of Europe's most rewarding travel combinations, spanning the Alps, the Rhine and Danube valleys, medieval old towns, and world-class cities like Vienna, Munich, Salzburg, and Berlin. Germany is celebrated for its diverse landscapes — from Bavarian castles and the Black Forest to the North Sea coast — alongside a thriving arts and nightlife scene, particularly in Berlin. Austria draws visitors with its imperial Habsburg heritage, stunning Alpine scenery, and a reputation for skiing, hiking, and classical music. Both countries are popular year-round, with summer hiking and Christmas markets in winter adding to their enduring appeal.

Christmas Markets in Central Europe: Vienna to Berlin (Self-Launched)

A 7-day self-launched clone of G Adventures' Christmas-market run from Vienna to Berlin, swapping group hotels and a CEO guide for central hostels, city transport passes, and public trains. You'll hit Vienna's Rathausplatz Christkindlmarkt, Salzburg's Domplatz market, Munich's Marienplatz and Tollwood, Nuremberg's world-famous Christkindlesmarkt, and Berlin's Gendarmenmarkt and Lucia market — with a dose of Glühwein, currywurst and free walking tours instead of a fixed group schedule. Costs are approximate budget-traveller estimates in GBP; book trains 3-6 weeks ahead on ÖBB and Deutsche Bahn for the cheapest Sparschiene/Sparpreis fares.

Missions

Nobody's posted a Mission for Austria & Germany yet — which, frankly, is an opportunity.

Wait, what's a Mission?It's not a scheduled trip with dates and a minimum group size like a Departure — it's a goal. Learn to dive, do a Muay Thai camp, live somewhere for a month and work on something, chase one very specific experience. Post it, and other people chasing the same thing find you.

Be the first to post one: "Learn the first 20 seconds of a local dance, then perform it, uninvited, at every bar you visit."
