A few days ago I went to Vienna, Saltzburg (in Austria) and Bratislava (Slovakia) with some friends.I had a great time and I show a lot of interesting places and buildings.Wherever you will turn you see beautyfull buildings surrounding you. I was impressed with all of them. We had an excellent conducted tour with a greek guide that live permanently in Vienna that gave as a great experience through knowledge to all modern and past buildings and sightseeings. We had a lovely tour in Schonbrunn Palace (Princees Sissi summer palace). We tasted local food snitzel, sachre torte and melange coffee. People were friendly and very helpfull for us when we asked for directions. We communicated in English. It took me under surprise that in coffee shops and restaurants in the bottom of the receipt they added an extra 10% in the bill for the waiters and that the waiters underlive it with the finger.Generally it Austria it is an expensive country but you have the ability to find ways for more cheap opportunities like the finger food that you can found in kiosks almost everywhere. In clothes and cosmetics we have almost the same prices or a little more expensive. A difficulty I had faced was the food because I do not eat much meat and they do not have many options in their food catalogs other than snitzel or beef. Their coffees started from 4 euros (the single espresso).
I will place here some of my experiences in photos.
