Our guide was tremendous.....and the tour was great (although tons of tourists)! Best part was the little bits & pieces of information that was shared by the guide that would not be in the tour books. Highly recommend this tour.

Wir waren sehr zufrieden. Den Treffpunkt hatten wir gleich gefunden. Unser Guide Christian war überpünktlich da und hat uns freundlich in Empfang genommen. Man hat gemerkt, dass er als Wiener für die Geschichte seiner Stadt brennt. Von ihm haben wir bereits bevor wir uns die prachtvollen Räumlichkeiten im Schloss angesehen haben, schon interessante und wertvolle Informationen zur Geschichte des Schlosses und der Historie der Habsburger erhalten. Auch im Schloss und im Garten gab es viel zu sehen und zu erzählen. Im Schloss gab es Kopfhörer für alle zur akustischen Verstärkung, damit wir Christian's Ausführung zu jeder Zeit gut hören konnten. Auch der Schnelleinlass hat super funktioniert, vorbei an der langen Warteschlange der anderen Besucher.

Very happy with the guided tour inside the castle and the garden. Our guide Celine was excellent! We were told the stories of the rooms and the people residing in the castle, the women and their stories- -a true insiders view and understanding elevated the walk through the rooms. Celine had good control of the group, even if other people entered the rooms and it became a bit crowded at times. I would absolutely recommend Celine as your guide and the company arranging the tours!

Very well informed guide. Though Michel would have done this routine thousands of times, his diction, inflexion, story-telling and command of the English language was exemplary. He also had a good sense of humour and kept us gripped with genuine interest.

Unsere Schloss Schönbrunn Führung mit Christian von Rosotravel war einfach großartig. Die Geschichte wurde absolut unterhaltsam und informativ übermittelt. Es war wirklich ein Erlebnis, und wir haben ganz viel Wissen mitgenommen. Christian war wirklich ein wandelndes Lexikon. Ihm zuzuhören war wirklich eine Freude. Noch kurz zu erwähnen ist, dass wir eigentlich zu spät waren und selbst da die Veranstalter uns hilfreich zur Seite standen und wir im Gewimmel noch mitlaufen konnten. Auch die Informationen vorab, was , wie und wohin top organisiert. Vielen Dank an Christian und an Sie!

Immerse yourself in Austria’s imperial legacy

Skip the queues and step straight into Vienna’s grand imperial past on a guided tour of Schönbrunn Palace and its stunning gardens. Your expert guide will bring the dazzling State Rooms to life, weaving fascinating stories of the Habsburg dynasty through magnificent artwork and ornate architecture. Walk in the footsteps of Empress Sisi as you explore her private apartments, including the elegant Great Gallery and the enchanting Carousel Room. Imagine the glittering courtly balls and lavish events that once filled these halls, with their soaring ceilings and sparkling crystal chandeliers setting the scene for centuries of history.

Wander through the Palace Gardens’ timeless beauty

After exploring inside, take a stroll through the palace’s French-style gardens. The majestic Neptune Fountain, sculpted in gleaming white marble, commands attention as a stunning centerpiece steeped in Roman mythology. Don’t miss the playful architectural gems, the Roman Ruin and the Obelisk, that reflect the Habsburgs’ flair for grandeur with a touch of whimsy. Climb up to the Gloriette, a triumphal arch perched on a hill, offering sweeping views across Vienna’s skyline, a perfect spot for a memorable photo.

Discover Vienna’s iconic city sights on a bus tour

Your experience continues beyond Schönbrunn with an optional city bus tour, showcasing Vienna’s most iconic landmarks. First, admire the impressive Vienna State Opera, renowned for hosting the glamorous annual Opera Ball. Just nearby stands the majestic Hofburg Palace, the former winter residence of the imperial family, rich with imperial history. As you travel, marvel at the monumental buildings of the Museum of Art History and the Museum of Natural History, both architectural masterpieces. The tour also passes by the neoclassical Parliament building, the celebrated Burgtheater, and the striking City Hall, each telling its own story of Vienna’s cultural and political heritage.

Choose your language for a personalized experience

To make your visit even more special, select a licensed guide who speaks your language, ensuring every detail and story resonates with you personally.

What to bring

Wear comfortable walking shoes, as the palace grounds are extensive and the State Rooms alone require time to explore.

Dress according to the season; choose breathable layers in summer and warm, waterproof clothing in winter.

In summer, carry a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect from strong sunlight in the gardens.

Photography enthusiasts may want a zoom or telephoto lens to capture sculptures and architectural details from a distance.
