Tips

If you prefer a shorter trip, condense the Vienna portion to four days and skip the Wachau Valley day, using that time for an extra day in Munich. Conversely, add a full day in Munich’s Alpine surroundings (e.g., Garmisch‑Partenkirchen) to extend the trip by two days for more outdoor fun. For a slower pace, allocate an extra morning in each city for relaxed breakfasts or extra museum visits.
