Our brand

The "Holidays in Austria" brand communication targets a highly educated audience of experienced travellers. Travel decisions are not made based on price or convenience alone, but also with a destination's history and identity in mind. For our guests it is important to be able to experience something truly authentic, as well as to be active and engaged while travelling. Here, Austria is particularly unique in three aspects:

1. Today's Austria used to be the center of a grand, multi-ethnic empire with tremdenously varied cultural influences. Over the centuries, this created a furtile ground for innovation within Austria's art and culture. Today our imperial history and its many sights are still a major reason to visit. In Austria, tradition and modernity create a most interesting juxtaposition.

2. Austrians know how to live well. We even have a name for it, "Gemuetlichkeit". Austrians are a relaxed, warm and charming bunch and the Austrian way is all about the good life!

3. In Austria we have a long tradition of hospitality and we like our guests to not only feel welcome, but we aim to make sure that their stay is a truly memorable one. We love to give our guests ideas and insider tips, encourage them to seek out new places and try new things. After all, there is tons to discover and experience on Holidays in Austria.
