Vaduz Private Guided Walking Tour

The capital of Liechtenstein lies along the shores of the Rhine River and has only a bit less than 6 thousand residents.

Explore the city centre of the city and learn all about its famous sculptures made by many international artists. Discover the government building and the impressive Parliament building next to it. Get acquainted with the neo-gothic cathedral, small in size but big in importance. It has actually only been considered a cathedral since 1997! Walk through “das Städtle”, the busiest part of the city, a pedestrian-exclusive area bustling with life. Discover the particularities of the Liechtensteiner government, a constitutional hereditary monarchy, and find out all about the Princely Family, and about daily life in one of Europe’s smallest countries.
