Austria Travel Budget Guide

Austria offers a refined Central European experience with imperial grandeur and Alpine adventures. Vienna is reasonably priced for a major European capital, especially compared to London or Paris. Salzburg and Alpine destinations are pricier during ski season and summer peaks, but shoulder seasons offer excellent value.

- Vienna: Capital city prices but excellent public transport and free museums. Very livable.
- Salzburg: Tourist-oriented, especially during festival season. Mozart and Sound of Music pilgrims push prices up.
- Innsbruck: Alpine gateway. Expensive in ski season, affordable in shoulder months.
- Graz: Austria’s second city, student population keeps prices reasonable.
- Hallstatt: Tiny, famous, and expensive. Consider day trips vs overnight.
- Ski Resorts: St. Anton, Kitzbühel are luxury-priced. Smaller resorts offer better value.
