I'm heading to Austria tomorrow. Any good tips? Thanks?


Like the subject stated, I'm heading to Austria tomorrow. I'm going to be there with a small group (my college choir) for a little over 2 weeks.
Any good suggestions as for what to bring, important info, etc... Not looking for things to do, as we already made an itenerary. Thanks bunches!

we're going to be staying in Eisenstadt. Bout 2 hours from Vienna...

Walking shoes - remember that cobbled streets are NOT high-heel friendly (voice of experience).
Pocket umbrella - while the weather will likely be HOT, you could get rain on a moment's notice.
A SECURE purse (with a long shoulder strap you can put over your head/across your chest) - pickpockets from neighbouring countries are PLENTIFUL - watch for teams working to distract/rob - often use children as part of their operations.
Travel document/money holders which can be worn under your clothes.
Lastly, an adverturous palate - by all means EAT LOCAL - stay away from tourist traps ($$$) and stuff you can eat at home - choose local cuisine. Ask store clerks where THEY eat with their own families.
Have a BALL - I envy you ! It's been a couple of years since I was there last.

its going to be cold. so bring a jacket and warm clothes. dont forget tennis shoes! and a camera!!!!! its gorgeous over there!


dont forget hair ties.. lol

It's going to be cold??? That person doesn't know what they are talking about. Hey chrissy, maybe you were thinking of Australia? My best friend is getting back from Austria today actually. Once I talk to him maybe I'll come back here and post more info.

Where in Austria? Bregenz, SalzBurg, Vienna or Graz?

EDITED BASED ON STADT:

Eisenstadt is beautiful and I would stronly suggest you take a pair of hiking boots and tennis shoes. You will be traversing cobblestone streets and if you go into the outlying hills, tennis shoes will shred on the rocks.

I would also suggest changing your currency at Vienna if you can but NOT at the airport. Otherwise, you will get a very low exhange rate

If you get the chance to go to Vienna take at least 4 rolls of film and nag your guide to take you to MariaHilfe Stre. starting at the Palace.

My apartment is three blocks from there <grin>

NH Hotel.....there are your all tips for Austria

its NOT cold in summer, just have a map, have a bag with stuff u need so when u go out walkin all day u got everythign u need..camera to take pics. if u r going to stay out until after 12 u r going to get a taxi..
