This our full road trip in Austria in winter. During our Christmas holiday we visited Salzburg, we rented a car, travelled through villages and lakes such as Hallstatt and finished the trip in Vienna / Wien with a great New Year's Eve party.
This is our complete holiday in Austria in winter. Please forget about the fact you can only go to Austria in winter for winter sport. No Austria has more to offer during winter and a road trip is especially a great way to spend your holiday.

What a gorgeous trip. I absolutely love winter travel, and this is why.

@LucasWorldTravel 3 года назад

Love the lakes is Austria! So many beautiful views. That sachertorte looks amazing. I don't even like chocolate, but I think I'll have to try one next time. Looks like a great trip even though some things were closed for Christmas. Reminds me of our time in Austria. Good memories!

Aw so beautiful with the snow in Hallshtatt ! I went in january but there was none :( I've read the article about how many tourist there is right after my visit and I was so shocked ! I loved the sachertorte :D The salt mine tour is so cool ! Really nice video !

Snow in Austria, just looks lovely on the mountains indeed.

@TheTravelingChzhed 3 года назад

I loved Haufbrau Haus! Salzburg is one of our favorite places on earth! So picturesque! I’m a flute player, so I’ve played many of Mozart’s works! We were there in the springtime, but I’d love to go in the winter, especially around the holidays. We took the train through Graz on to Vienna. The scenery is amazing! I’m sure now the mayor of Hallstadt wishes he had tourists again. The schonbrun (sp) was a great visit for us. Now I wanna go back to Austria!

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

Yeah a balance is difficult. At one point you want less tourists the day after you want more.

@CarolandDerek 3 года назад

Once again you bought back some lovely memories. Thanks, I will never forget the slide into the mines ❤️🌈👍

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

@DreamyTravelStory 3 года назад

We would love to do a road trip like this, even if it's winter! The landscape is so beautiful with the snow! Such a shame that Frozen make Hallstatt suffer from too much tourism. All the chocolate you had looks amazing! I (Marion) love cakes and chocolate so I would gain so much weight there. The cake with the 34 chocolates seems amazing! Beautiful view from the fortress and Hofburg palace is stunning! Vienna seems like a great place to celebrate NYE! Beautiful video that makes us want to travel in Austria!

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

Who doesn't want to visit Austria. One of my favourite countries in the world 😉

christmas eve in the philippines is very very festive haha everywhere you look there seems to be people crowding and celebrating unlike the empty streets you've shown. YOUR EDITING is AMAZING so professionally done! I always love watching your videos! few months till christmas :)

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

Thank you so much. I really wonder how Christmas would look like now. Winter Wonderland has been cancelled in London due to Covid.

@tristanvoltaire2058 Год назад

In Austria Christmas Eve starts at 4pm and is usually spent purely with family. That is a major reason for the shops being closed in the evening.

@BonnysOneStepAhead 3 года назад

Idk of I would visit in winter. But I love a nice Christmas market. Omg when you guys got up after Christmas and see that beautiful scenery!!! Absolutely beautiful!!! How long is the area kind of shut down for Christmas? Just a few days. And I love Frozen but never looked up what area inspired the town in the movie. Definitely looks like it.

@invisibletravellers6271 3 года назад

I feel sorry for the Hallstatt residents, having so many tourists outside of their home all the time. The Sissi ticket seems worth it. Hope we can all enjoy a new year celebration with a big crowd for 2021.

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

Let's hope we can indeed, unfortunately I highly doubt we will have a big celebration for 2021 with what is going on at the moment. At least Hallstatt should be quiet at the moment.

@ChasingWhereabouts 3 года назад

I have been following you for awhile and I really love your story telling. I am looking forward to learn from watching your video. I tried skating while visiting Salsburg it was one ,I see you had a clip in the video. Did you try doing that ?

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

We didn't ice skate unfortunately on this trip. But we did it in Moscow the year before. That was the first time for my girlfriend to try, so we started to learn her more ice skating here in the UK. Now we just need to bring this back in practice again.

@ChasingWhereabouts 3 года назад

@@Svenywhere I had no plan for ice skating before but the environment was so contagious I mean you see all people enjoying so much there then I eventually ended up doing that and that was my second time only trying that so I was barely holding up. But yes it was fun.

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

@@ChasingWhereabouts Great to hear you had some good fun there!

@SorgiStories 3 года назад

It would be an amazing journey...but as a family, we'd need to take our relatives along and rent a pretty big AirBnB. Can't NOT have our family at Christmas. But maybe...it's worth it!

Why not do the trip with the whole family? And rent that big Airbnb that would reduce the costs.

April has always been interested in Mozart, so would enjoy visiting Salzburg! Oldest salt mine in the world, cool. Too bad Hallstatt has this problem with over-tourism. Do you know if has gotten any better since then? Does your future still seem as bright as it did on this New Year's Eve? 😉

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

My future does. My travel future will be in the end, but yeah a lot of trips cancelled. In regards of Hallstatt. At the moment it is good of course, but I believe as any other place that when Covid is over it will be back to normal I am afraid.

@GoTravelOnTheCheap 3 года назад

Thing is with places like that, we want to visit, but usually end up not because we can't justify it with the mobs of people

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

@@GoTravelOnTheCheap Well currently all the places that were meant to be busy aren't. Unfortunately I think for this year that most of the Christmas activities and New Year Activities are cancelled.

@huanho9057 Год назад

I plan to visit Hallstatt and Salzburg this winter, But I am not sure which mounth there will be much snow.

@Svenywhere Год назад

It is never guaranteed. But if you go up in the mountains high chance you will find snow anyway. The December month is nice because of all the Christmas markets.

@DOUGandNIKI 3 года назад

Never saw one of those chocolates before. They look yummy! Oh...Oh...Oh...I love Sound of Music! Did they actually shoot it there or did the reproduce it on a set? Maybe you should re title this as a Chocolate Cat tour 😋😋😋 Were the Opera tickets cheaper online?

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

They actually shot it there. The tickets are probably same price online, but they will be sold out if you try to buy it at the door. It only costs €9,- for standing tickets.

@OneShotAdventures 3 года назад

Really enjoyed your storytelling in this video Sven. German food and Christmas feels like the perfect combination to me! Hearing about Mozart's talents at such a young age makes me feel bad about myself haha. It looks beautiful there by the lakes, especially when the weather cleared. That salt mine looks really cool and the slide was unexpected! Had no idea that Hallstatt inspired Frozen... Haha so many chairs! Vienna looks great to NYE too

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

Thanks so much for watching. And glad you liked the storytelling of this video!

@babetravelling 3 года назад

Gosh I’m craving those sausages from Australia. Wow 44Euros for to enter. Worth it?

@Svenywhere 3 года назад

It really depends. €44 is for two people so €22 per person. It depends, it also took you up the mountain which offered great views. I have done this before so I could have skipped it, but if you never did such a thing before I think it is worth it

@audrinabetzomayeh7331 2 года назад

Going to Vienna for the first time (from the USA) and wanted to check out Hallstatt. Do you think it is worth it?

@Svenywhere 2 года назад

As long as you are aware that in the town itself there might be loads of tourists. However, it is also worth either walking up the mountain or taking the cable car up and making a tour through the salt mines, the views can be fabulous up there if there is snow. It is worth visiting, but if you have a car some other places along the different lakes in the area might give you a similar experience with less tourists.

@bonniea8189 Год назад

@@SvenywhereI wonder if it's still like that NOW, 2-3 years after you filmed this, and after the pandemic.
