P2 – Holiday
Destinations
,A. Sarah and Malik, a couple in their early thirties, are keen mountaine
and are extremely fit and healthy. They are going to take a two-week s
break to indulge their hobby.
Destination 1: Lake Achensee, Austria
Travel: The couple would be able to take flights from Mancheste
with most flights leaving around 9am. The total journey time wo
take 4 hours and would land in Salzburg. The return flights are
around 3pm to Manchester, a 2.5 hour flight in total.
Furthermore, the flights cost £440 per person – which is quite
good as it allows them to check in one piece of hand luggage an
checked luggage. If they would like extra leg room, then that wo
cost them £30 each way, per person but as it is a short flight the
they wouldn’t really need to buy it. The airline is TUI. Once in
Salzburg, they would need to get Lake Anchensee, which they ca
get there by hire car or by bus – which is a bit more complicated
, Accommodation/ Facilities: There is plenty of cheap hotels in Lake Achensee whic
a good stay. Travel Charme Fuerstenhaus is one for example. This hotel offers
Wi-Fi, a LCD TV, Spa treatments, hot tub, room service, bar and airport
shuttle. Furthermore, it is a 5 minute walk from the centre of Lake Anchensee, an
views look out onto the lake with the mountains right next to it. It costs £1103 fo
nights, which is a good price for what is included in it. It is also the starting point
hiking up many of the mountain trails.
Type of resort: It is a hotel which would be suitable for them as they will be able to
in and unwind after they have gone mountaineering. It is couple friendly and ha
board. It has amenities such as breakfast, room service and an airport shutt
therefore caters to their needs well. It has wellness facilities, such as a spa, ho
gym and many more which will suit the couples needs as they are extremely fit an
therefore would want to stay fit whilst on holiday.
Attractions: The main historical attraction is the Tratzberg Castle, which is asse
by a bus ride that takes 1.5 hours through the mountains which they will enjoy.
bus ride doesn’t cost anything as when they book into the hotel they will be given
‘Anchensee Card’ which allows them to hop on and off the bus rides in the area. A
enjoy mountaineering, they may also enjoy doing some rock-climbing, which is a
natural and built attraction as there is both indoor and outdoor facilities for all abil
and at a cheap price. There is also the lake which is a natural attraction and allow
them to participate in different water sports if they would like too. Furthermore, as
are a healthy couple, they may want to go to a restaurant such as Via Pasto, w
serves healthy food at a cheap price and has opening hours to suit them and their
activities.
