Vienna the classic way: whether it's a Viennese pub or the Giant Ferris Wheel in the Prater, on this trip you will experience everything that is typical of a visit to Austria's capital. Schönbrunn Palace with its sheer endless number of rooms awaits you, as does the Imperial Palace with the Imperial Apartments and the Sisi Museum. A visit to the Naschmarkt is a real treat - here you can feast and stroll afterwards. At the end, you'll return home as a true Viennese and won't be telling your friends about a great trip over a coffee, but rather drinking an "Verlängerter" in proper style and raving about it.
Arrival at Vienna
Europe's most liveable city is always worth a visit and welcomes you with charm and joie de vivre! Arrive on a route of your choice and enjoy a cosy evening at the hotel. Servus and a warm welcome!
ATTENTION: Bus is not included, it must be requested and charged separately.
Stephan's cathedral and Naschmarket - F
After breakfast at the hotel, you start your city tour. Vienna - the city of dreams. Here you will find everything from waltzes and coffee houses, elegance and nostalgia, luxury and romance. Marvel at the magnificent buildings on the Ringstrasse, such as the State Opera, Burgtheater, Hofburg, Parliament, University, Belvedere Palace and St Stephen's Cathedral. The cathedral will give you insights that you wouldn't get on a regular city tour. The tour continues on foot through Vienna to the Naschmarkt, where you can explore the stalls on your own after a brief description. Then it's back to the hotel.
Castle Schönbrunn und Vienna Prater - F
A visit to Schönbrunn Palace is on the programme today. It is the most popular sight in Vienna and one of the most important cultural assets in Austria. It was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in December 1996. This recognises the worldwide significance of the palace and the entire garden complex as a Baroque work of art. The tour continues with a visit to the Vienna Prater. Of course, a ride on the Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel is a must. Enjoy a marvellous view of Austria's metropolis.
Vienna Hofburg - F/A
In the afternoon, you will visit the Vienna Hofburg with the Sisi Museum and Imperial Apartments. For over 600 years, the Vienna Hofburg was not only the centre of the Habsburg Empire, but above all the main residence of the imperial family. Today, the Austrian Federal President as well as several ministers and state secretaries serve the state in the magnificent state rooms. Numerous important cultural institutions are also based in the former imperial winter residence. The Sisi Museum reveals a multi-layered picture of Empress Elisabeth. In this "museum of emotions", the myth of Sisi becomes tangible like in no other place. In a total of six
rooms, you follow the trail of the famous empress and discover an extraordinary personality beyond the usual clichés. To round off the tour, you will stop off at a restaurant in the evening and savour a typical Viennese menu - bon appétit!
Departure and farewell - F
They came as "foreigners" and left almost as true Viennese after this great stay in Austria's capital. Goodbye!
