How to reach Graz
By rail :There are many direct train services (Oebb) from all over Austria to Graz. If you arrive at Vienna International Airport, there is a regular shuttle bus service to the Südbahnhof (Southern Station). There is a regular direct service (every two hours) from there to Graz (travelling time approx. 2½ hours). Graz is ideally located at the hub of Central Europe’s road network. Venice, Budapest and Munich are all about five hours’ drive away. Graz can easily be reached by motorway from Vienna, Linz, Salzburg, Villach, and Klagenfurt. Graz has an international airport with several daily connections to and from Frankfurt, Zurich and Vienna (Vienna International Airport). There is an infrequent shuttle bus service to the railway station. But you can also take a taxi directly to your hotel (this will cost approx. ATS 250) The shops and boutiques in Graz are like a wardrobe – a mixed assortment of colourful clothes. Casual outfits for the city stroll share a coat hanger with elegant robes for the evening gala. Affordable second-hand accessories can be had next to expensive jewellery, and traditional costumes compete for attention with flashy designer fashion. Raise the curtain for a shopping experience à la Graz. The main station (Hauptbahnhof) is on the western edge of the city center, at the end of the Annenstrasse. Graz has frequent connections to Vienna with direct trains every other hour. Connections to Salzburg and most other Austrian Cities and Munich are also reasonably frequent. Night trains serve destinations as far as Zurich, and there are two direct daylight services each day to Zagreb. See OBB - Austrian Railways for timetables. There are also less frequent services to Slovenia and Hungary. To reach the old town, take tram line 3 or 6 (1 or 7 evenings and Sundays), or simply walk down Annenstrasse for about 20 minutes and cross the bridge. You can obtain a map from the Tourist Information in the Hauptbahnhof. Back to Tourist Place in Austria
