While in Bregenz, we went on may excursions together as a group during the first week to get us acquainted to traveling in Austria. We rode the trains to the nearby cities of Feldkirch, Austria and Lindau, Germany. We also hiked up into the mountains to see the old city of Bregenz. We took buses us the curvy mountain roads to see a local cheese factory. We travelled to Munich one weekend to experience some serious history as we toured the Dachau concentration camp.
Excursions were great because 1) they were traveling you didn't have to pay for and 2) it helped you to get acquainted with the Austrian train system for your future independent travels. |
