PostHeaderIcon Summer as an Opportunity to Expand Personal Linguistic and Cultural Knowledge: Learn German in Vienna



Whoever wants to learn German would better go to Austria. It is the best place where to learn German as a second language, since people speak a correct and standard German language there, and there are a lot of courses which give recognized certificates.

Summer is coming and during this season, there are many young students who want to leave for a holiday that allows them to learn a language.

This is the reason why our German language school in Vienna, a world-notorious institute for high-level courses and professionalism, chose to start summer courses of German language for kids and teens between 12 and 17 years old, inside the campus of the school.

This school is located exactly in the middle of a campus which offers to students large, spacious and outfitted spaces for their activities and for practicing any kind of sport, and gives the opportunity to learn German in a professional but amusing atmosphere, following students and encouraging them to meet and mix it up with people while having fun.

Summer courses of German language for teens in Vienna last at least 2 weeks, and their goal is to support students with the highest number of language skills as possible, in order to give them all the language tools they woud need to manage this holiday autonomously such as future possible ones in a German language country.

Going to Vienna is the right choice for all students who choose to have a learning vacation while studying German: they will mix it up with teens coming from all over the world, and will enjoy their stay without renouncing to the most interesting sides of a travel, which are amusement and total immersion in the artistic and cultural history of a country.

If you want to learn German without renouncing to a wonderful holiday, ActiLingua school’s summer campus in Vienna is the ideal for you!

PostHeaderIcon Too Old to Drive a Rental Car?



As the population in Australia gets older, the problem of renting a car both in Australia and overseas becomes more of an issue. Most car companies will have some kind of restriction if the older generation is looking to rent a vehicle. Whilst you may think that as someone that has been driving for 50 years or more, car rental companies can see you as a major risk to their asset

The Senior Driver Surcharge is payable by senior drivers over &/or between a specific age. This depends on country and/or car rental company. It is just the same as our car insurance companies here in Australia charge a higher premium if you have a driver aged 21 years on the insurance.

The reason why it is charged is because the car rental company sees senior drivers as high risk and they get charged a premium to have senior drivers covered by their insurance company. However, other car rental companies just restrict the driving age so they don’t have to get additional insurance.

To give you a few examples on how it differs between suppliers, let’s take a look at Car Rental in Ireland. One car rental company has a maximum age of 74 years with no surcharge payable. Another car rental company charges a EUR29 incl Tax /day fee for drivers aged between 70-74 years. And, a third car rental company doesn’t charge a surcharge but they require additional documentation from driver’s aged between 76-79 years, as follows -

1) Note from their Insurers stating that they have not been involved in any accidents within the past 5 years.

2) Note from their doctor stating that they are in full health.

When booking your car rental, it is advisable to always be truthful of the age/s of all drivers and ask the car rental company if there are any additional conditions for senior driver’s. Failure to do so may result in you using public transport to get around on your holiday.

Car Rental brokers, such as DriveAway Holidays will be able to advise quickly as to which company is going to be able to accomodate the older driver.
