Guten Tag

Non-PRO English to German Marketing Marketing / Market Research
We are working on a project where a character is visiting many different countries in the world. We're introducing the countries with a short line of copy starting with an official greeting of the country - i.e. for France, he'll say "Bonjour I'm in France..."

We are trying to find a generic greeting for Austria that is authentic but this seems to be quite open to debate. So we would like the greeting we've found confirmed accurate or if there is a better suggestions.

Grüß Gott

"Grüß Gott" would be a good alternative to "Guten Tag" to give the translation a more Austrian flavor
