The city of
Graz is south of Vienna. It has
about 250,000 inhabitants and is the second largest city in Austria. Vienna is
the biggest city with 1.9 people.
The closest
airport to Graz is the Flughafen-Graz:
You can get
a taxi to go from the airport to the venue. The taxi-company I would recommend
is called “taxi 878”:
call:+43/316/878
The taxi
from the airport to the venue will cost you about 40 Euros.
If
you´re flying in from the UK (Stansted airport) there are direct flights to
Graz
for less
than a 100 Pounds round-trip.
Vienna is about two hours north from Graz
by car, if you want to fly to Vienna and rent a car.
You can
also take a train from Vienna to Graz, this will take you about 2 ½ hours and
costs about 37 Euro one way.
You will
have to go from Vienna-Südbahnhof to Graz-Hauptbahnhof.
If you arrive by plane and want to use public
transportation:
First take the train (there is only one in the airport) to the
“Graz-Hauptbahnhof” (main train station).
The link below shows you the times the train runs.
www.flughafen-graz.at/home/an_abreise_uebersicht/Zugfahrplan_2010.pdf
At the “Hauptbahnhof” get on the bus Number 53 (direction “Fuß
der Leber”) and get off at the station called “Scherwirt”.
This ride on the bus will take about 35 minutes.
If you get off the bus turn around, walk back about 50 meters (160
feet) and the class-venue is
there on the right side.

Advisor below to coordinate your travel:
