What you can expect

Discover Vienna's most visited attractions on a skip-the-line tour that takes you to the opulent imperial residence at Schönbrunn Palace, the former summer home of the Habsburg monarchy. Explore the magnificent palace and the stunning buildings that line the city's Ringstrasse on our City Tour by bus, including the State Opera House and Museum of Fine Arts.

Starting in central Vienna, ride past some of the most significant landmarks in the Austrian capital. Pass by the grand buildings along the Ringstrasse, a circular boulevard that loops around the historic city centre. Travel to the world-famous State Opera—one of Europe's busiest ones —and see the stunning architecture of the Museum of Fine Arts, which houses a huge array of treasures from the Habsburg family.

From there, travel to the Schönbrunn Palace, where you can walk through the lavishly furnished and ornately decorated rooms of this Baroque estate. Once the summer residence of Austria's emperors and the home of Maria Theresa—the last of the Habsburgs, the palace transports you back to the days of Imperial Austria.

You have free time to explore the area around Schönbrunn Palace at your own pace before heading back to the city centre.

Veronica was an excellent guide, very knowledgeable. Pace was good, though including gardens at this time of year is unnecessary, as there is nothing in bloom.
