two short stops at the Hundertwasser house and at Belvedere palace which will
allow you to get off the bus, take some photos, do a bit of shopping and
whatsoever you may need to do besides all that!

| Bus tour "imperial Vienna" |
If you don't want to sit in a bus for three consecutive hours, or if you are
a fan of Habsburg history, this tour program is made for you: After having done
the classical tour of the Ring boulevard we will first take a quick walk through
the inner city of Vienna, talking about the imperial palace Hofburg, the winter
residence of the Habsburg family, then we will get back on the bus, drive along
the valley of the river Vienna looking at the marvelous place of Saint Charles
with its baroque church, the New Years Concert Hall and the Secession palace,
the Otto Wagner buildings and the historical subway stations in Art nouveau
style. Finally, we will arrive at Schönbrunn palace, where we will definitely
leave the bus, walk a bit in the splendid palace gardens and visit the
highlights of the summer residence rooms of the Habsburg dynasty. Looking at the
original interiors, we will talk about the life and the character of empress
Maria Teresia, emperor Francis Joseph, empress Sissi and other famous family
members.
This tour is made for everyone who loves splendid palaces and spicy
background information on the life of celebrities!
| Bus tour "Vienna from outside and inside" |
This tour is a combination of a classic bus tour of the Ring boulevard and a
walk through the city center of Vienna: First we drive once around the old city
following the trace of the former city walls, then we get off the bus in front
of Saint Stevens Cathedral, the main church of Vienna, walk along the Graben
looking at Saint Peters Church and the Black Plague monument, pass the Demel
bakery shop who once made the cakes for the emperor, see the roman excavations
on Saint Michaels square and finally arrive at the imperial palace, winter
residence of the Habsburg family. We do a quick tour of the inner courtyards of Europe's
second largest building, pass by the imperial apartments, the imperial treasury,
the imperial chapel, the Spanish Riding School, the national library and the
church of Saint Augustine before ending our tour on the Albertina square between
the famous Albertina collection, the hotel Sacher and the Vienna state opera
house.
This tour is a mixture of the panoramic city tour "Vienna at first
glance" and the city walk "Vienna at first glance" - the perfect
way to see Vienna if you are in a hurry!
| Special sightseeing tours |
| Panorama tour "Vienna by tramway" |
It is a particularly enriching experience to see the Ring boulevard in detail
doing a tramway tour instead of a trip by bus. This permits you to appreciate
the single monuments much better than usually as well as a higher degree of
flexibility. When traveling by tramway, the tour can be customized according to
your personal interests: If you see something you like, we simply leave the cab
at the next station and go back to have a close look. There is no more personal
way to do a guided tour! According to your preferences we can do a detailed
visit of the imperial gardens, the heroes square, the museums quarters, the town
hall park, the Danube channel area, the Greek city quarter or the city park with
its splendid monuments - or perhaps do you want to see a little bit of them all?
This panorama tour doesn't have a fixed program - according to your
personal interests we leave the tramway more or less often. If there is any time
left, this tour can also be combined with a visit at the gardens of the
Belvedere palace or at the Hundertwasser house. On request, this tour can also
be done in historical old-timer wagons!
View Vienna from a totally different perspective during a Danube river
cruise. On this boat trip you will see the city center, the Hundertwasser
buildings, the UNO-City, the Danube island and other important attractions from
the water - a very particular experience!
This tour can be done on board of scheduled river cruise ships as well as
on a private boat. Further information on request.
