Designing Your Journey

Nestled between two Alpine mountain regions, Innsbruck is a cultural and commercial hub that has much more than just great skiing. With its historical downtown and close access to the slopes, Innsbruck is an attractive destination for culture seekers and active travelers alike. Here are a few examples of what our destination experts can create for you.
Innsbruck in the Winter
To experience the very best of Innsbruck in the winter, plan an itinerary that includes active adventures like downhill skiing and sledding, along with plenty of fine dining and cultural exploration in the town’s historical center, (Innsbruck is home to more than 30 museums and galleries). Indagare can match you with the best properties, restaurants, guides and instructors for your needs and interests.
Innsbruck in the Summer
To experience the very best of Innsbruck in the summer, plan an itinerary that includes outdoor excursions like hiking and biking throughout some of the region’s–and the Alps’–most picturesque towns, along with exploring the historical center and enjoying the lovely Alpine weather. Indagare can match you with the best properties, restaurants, guides and instructors for your needs and interests.
Innsbruck for Culture Lovers
With a rich culture and imperial history and a surprisingly impressive culinary scene, Innsbruck offers culture hounds much more than the typical Alpine town. Indagare can organize private museum tours, day trips and meals at traditional Tyrolean restaurants. Plus, there are a handful of lovely boutiques that line Maria-Theresien-Strasse.
Where To Stay
We only feature hotels that we can vouch for first-hand. At many of them, Indagare members receive special amenities, including upgrades, early check-in, breakfast, spa credits and more. Look for the Indagare Plus logo in the reviews.
