Join me on a fun and entertaining tour across Vienna's old town's palaces, churches, squares and streets. We will experience a complete and immersive history of Vienna, the former imperial capital of the Habsburg monarchy. See the impressive monuments to the past and be amazed by the architecture, its symbolism and the layers of forgotten stories. Meet the Habsburgs. You will hear how they tried to conquer the world, not by fighting it, but by marrying it. How this was a good plan until they married cousins one too many times and it becomes the new family tradition. Yet they persevered across the centuries and what was their capital Vienna stands today as a big monument to their legacy. The stories from this great family are true epics and most entertaining. I will share with you my passion for this city's history. It is the same passion that became my calling to move to Vienna years ago. I came for the big history, but I stayed for the quality of life. Vienna is incredible.
The tour starts either at your hotel, should it be in the old town, or in front of St. Stephen's cathedral at the very heart of Vienna. The walking tour covers the most famous, as well as the less famous, sights and monuments in Vienna's UNESCO old town. We see among others the: - St Stephen's Cathedral - The old University quarter with its narrow passages and streets, and its unforgettable baroque Jesuit church - Mozart's house - Kärtnerstrasse Street - Graben Street with the Plague Column - Kohlmarkt and Demel -The Hofburg Palace complex with: - Heroes, square - Spanish Riding School - Maria Theresien Platz - The City Hall - Parliament - Academy of Arts - The State Opera and more. . . The tour ends at the State Opera, or at request, on the impressive Ringstrasse Boulevard, a showcase of monumental architecture. Halfway through our tour, I offer a small break for coffee/ tea and cake, or coffee to-go from one at one of my favorite Viennese Coffee Houses. This is an option and not a tour feature.
