Your journey begins with a comfortable bus tour along Vienna’s famous Ringstraße, a grand boulevard lined with some of the city's most impressive architectural and cultural treasures. As you ride through the heart of the Austrian capital, admire landmarks such as the Vienna State Opera, one of the world’s most renowned opera houses, and the Museum of Art History, home to an extraordinary collection of masterpieces from artists such as Rembrandt, Raphael, and Vermeer. Nearby, you'll also spot the Habsburg Museum and the Museum of Natural History, both of which house extensive exhibits that delve into Austria’s rich past.

Continuing through the city, marvel at the Museum Quarter, one of the largest cultural complexes in Europe, where historic and contemporary art coexist in a dynamic urban space. Your tour also takes you past the Hofburg Palace, the former winter residence of the Habsburg emperors, which now serves as the official seat of the Austrian president. Along the way, catch sight of the Austrian Parliament, an architectural masterpiece inspired by ancient Greek design, as well as the grand Vienna City Hall and the historic Court Theater (Burgtheater), Austria’s national theater known for its stunning Baroque architecture.

The highlight of your experience is a guided tour of Schönbrunn Palace, the former summer residence of the Habsburgs. As you step inside this magnificent Baroque palace, you'll be transported back in time to an era of imperial grandeur. Your certified mulitlingual guide will lead you through the lavishly decorated rooms, once home to Empress Maria Theresa, Emperor Franz Joseph, and Empress Elisabeth (Sisi). Learn about their fascinating lives, admire the intricate Rococo interiors, and imagine the opulent events that once took place within these walls.
With priority entry, you’ll skip the long queues and enjoy a stress-free visit to one of Vienna’s most beloved attractions.

By the end of your tour, you'll come back to the Vienna State Opera. You’ll have gained a deep appreciation for Vienna’s rich cultural heritage and imperial history.
