Enchanting Christmas markets in the city of Mozart

The city of Mozart, Salzburg, captivates visitors with its unique charm and magic, especially during Advent. In the lanes, the cheerful bustle of the Salzburg Christkindlmarkt spreads a cosy warmth, and the chiming of the many church bells reminds you that Christmas is approaching. The city is of manageable size yet, at the same time, boasts a touch of worldly glamour.

Day 1: Switzerland - Salzburg

You travel through the Arlberg to the enchanting Baroque city of Salzburg. Arrival at approx. 16:45.

Day 2: Gut Aiderbichl - Salzburg

(Optional) Today you have the opportunity to visit probably the best-known farm in the Salzburg region. Every year at Christmas, Gut Aiderbichl shines with a very special glow together with its animals. Regional treats such as mulled wine or punch are also on offer for your refreshment. You can bake delicious bread on a stick over the campfire in the inner courtyard. In the afternoon, return to Salzburg.

As an alternative to the optional excursion, you can explore the Baroque city and its Christkindlmärkte on your own. The historic centre of Salzburg is an outstanding UNESCO World Heritage Site. Magnificent churches, squares and fountains blend together in Salzburg to create a magic that captivates people. The city is overlooked by its two mountains, the Mönchsberg and the Burgberg, at whose foot the Old Town lies.

The Christmas market at Mirabellplatz enchants visitors in front of the magnificent backdrop of Mirabell Palace. The "Starry Sky" on Domplatz and Residenzplatz gives the Christmas market its distinctive appearance. You will have time to shop in the festively illuminated Getreidegasse, to enjoy the famous Café Tomaselli, or to visit the Mozart House.

Day 3: Innsbruck - Switzerland

Drive to Innsbruck, the capital of the Austrian federal state of Tyrol. On the square in front of the world-famous Golden Roof, you can visit the Innsbruck Christmas market. A large, illuminated Christmas tree and numerous festively decorated stalls will put you in the pre-Christmas spirit. Arcades and centuries-old houses give this city its special character. In the afternoon, return to Switzerland.

The elegant 4* Hotel am Mirabellplatz (official regional category) is centrally located right next to Mirabell Palace, only a few minutes' walk from the Old Town. The stylish rooms feature a shower/WC, hairdryer, TV, Wi-Fi, safe and air conditioning. Equivalent hotel if unavailable.
