If recent years have taught us anything, it is that things never turn out quite as originally expected. Frequently, our plans are completely upset, long-awaited travel has to be canceled and dreams must be postponed. But now it has returned, that sense of boundless freedom. And the world is our oyster. But after so many changes of plans, overcrowded airports and uncertainties, perhaps you don’t currently wish to forge plans that are too grand. This is why we have collected a few destinations that celebrate the here and now. For spur-of-the-moment planners and travel afficionados who wish to live out their spontaneous summer dreams.

Summer in the City. When, after the bustling weeks of springtime, many depart the city, things become a lot quieter in Vienna. During the summer months, the city evolves a distinctive character all its own. In the daytime, people seek out the cool, wet waters of the Danube and the refreshment provided by wine taverns surrounded by vineyards. Come evening, they saunter through the streets and return to their home away from home at a place of art and the beautiful things, the Hotel Altstadt. Once here, enjoy a personal guided tour of the hotel featuring unique artworks from the personal collection of hotel owner Otto E. Wiesenthal, and take advantage of tickets for the museum of your choosing.
