| This is Vienna! – A Highlight Tour for First-Time Visitors
|
|
| Are you visiting Vienna for the first time? Then this walking tour is the perfect way to start your journey. Even a short stay can become an unforgettable experience when you explore the city with a knowledgeable guide who truly loves Vienna and enjoys sharing its secrets.Once the heart of the Habsburg Empire, Vienna stood at the centre of imperial splendour, noble patronage, and a vast multi-national realm stretching across much of Central and Eastern Europe. Today, though the empire is long gone, the city still radiates imperial grandeur and remains one of the world’s foremost centres of art, architecture, and music. Behind the majestic Ringstrasse, which replaced the city’s old fortifications, lies a world of imposing palaces, elegant public buildings, and charming narrow streets—some dating back to Roman and medieval times. This introductory tour captures that unique blend of imperial splendour and hidden intimacy, revealing both Vienna’s celebrated landmarks and its tucked-away treasures. See the former imperial residence, St. Stephen’s Cathedral, and other highlights of the historic city centre, while discovering lesser-known corners that most visitors miss. Along the way, your guide will also share personal recommendations for what else to explore—from A for Amadeus, to R for Roman Vienna, all the way to Z for Empress Zita. |
