The lively town of Villach has a Mediterranean feel and is well-known for its thermal baths. The Mittagskogel cliffs are an imposing backdrop for the crystal clear, blue water of picturesque Lake Faaker, Austria's most southerly lake. A highlight of the tour is a visit to the Pyramidenkogel Observation Tower near Lake Wörther, for fabulous views over the whole region (small extra charge).

On the way back, we stop to explore the delightful old spa town of Bad Kleinkirchheim (three-quarter day).
