Some destinations can be experienced in a palapa on a 100-yard stretch of sandy beach.
Other destinations require you to wander a bit to fully experience all the beauty,
charm and history they have to offer. Austrian holidays tend to be roaming affairs.

on a scenic train ride. Austrian rails, developed in the 1800s, wind remarkably through
the country's mountainous terrain, offering mile after mile of incredible viaducts,
tunnels and breathtaking views.
Depending on the season, you'll have many opportunities for fun along the way, such
as skiing, hiking, and wine touring. Vienna alone offers towering architecture, museums
and coffeehouses buzzing with good friends and conversation.
Regardless of where you go in Austria, you'll find an apartments4you property close
at hand. apartments4you resorts are sprinkled throughout the country, offering well-appointed
accommodations and home-like amenities to make your stay more enjoyable.
