Itinerary
Day 1
Fly into Munich, meet your tour manager and journey across the Austrian border to the scenic Tyrol, to enjoy the warm welcome and hospitality of your hotel in Kramsach. Settle into your room, explore your surroundings and enjoy a first evening meal.
Day 2
Join your tour manager for a full-day sightseeing tour. You'll begin by travelling to picture-postcard Rattenberg, the Tyrol's smallest town, which is beautifully set beneath the ruins of its castle, and famous for its glass-blowing and crystal work – as well as for its traditional Apfelstrudel. See artisan craftspeople at work, and taste the traditional dessert as prepared by master bakers, before completing a wonderful day with a visit to Lake Achensee. Relax on one of the beaches that fringe its wooded shores – many of which are popular spots for swimming – or take a cruise on a lake steamer (payable locally). You'll return to the hotel in time for dinner.

Combining hotel transfers
We sometimes need to combine transfers to and from your hotel. We always try to keep any wait to a minimum, but you may be asked to wait at the airport for up to an hour, while other incoming flights arrive, before the transfer to your hotel. Similarly, we may need to transfer you back to the airport up to three hours before your flight home departs.
Special requirements
If you have notified us of any special requirements, please check that they have been noted and acknowledged. This is especially important with any dietary needs you may have.
Disabled access
The majority of our tours involve a certain amount of walking, including a short walk from the coach stop to the town, attraction or venue you're visiting. If you are bringing a wheelchair, please let us know at the time of booking so that appropriate arrangements can be made.
Itinerary changes
Occasionally, for operational reasons, we may have to change the order of the excursions on your holiday. This includes reversing the itinerary. The final day-by-day itinerary will be confirmed on your Final Travel Documents, which you will receive approximately three weeks prior to your departure.
