Lake Garda

down over 340 meters. Its scenery differs from mountainous and jagged in the
North to gently hilly in the South.

EUROPE
Austria - All Inclusive
8 DAYS 14-21 APRIL £499
Think of Austria and it's a tussle for the iconic image that will pop into your head
first: Julie Andrews spinning on a mountaintop, Vienna's imperial dazzle, the
snowy peaks of the Alps... This former heart of the Austro-Hungarian Empire sits
at the base of the Alps and the crossroads of Central Europe - and if the
ambience here is more nostalgia than innovation, and more poise than pizzazz,
then it's easy to understand why. European high culture was dominated by
Austria for centuries during the reign of the Hapsburg dynasty. This is the land of
Mozart and Strauss, Freud and Klimt, of grand palaces, onion-bulb churches and
beautiful Baroque and Art Nouveau buildings. These days, old and new combine
in a seamless experience for visitors, transport links are superb and tourist
infrastructure is frighteningly well organised, ensuring you won't miss any of the
experiences Austria has to offer.

Cobh, pronounced Cove, Cork was the last port of call of RMS Titanic which

the ship weighed anchor for the last time and sailed west towards her tragic fate
in the icy waters of the North Atlantic. One hundred and twenty three passengers
left form Cobh. Cobh has always maintained a strong maritime tradition which we
hope you too will experience. Today Cobh while respecting the various tragedies
of the past, now shines with a vibrancy that lifts the spirit and embraces Ireland's
