We had Mrs. Uli as our guide, the truth is that it was not just a tour, she with her narrative made us live an unforgettable experience, very kind and always aware of the group and especially I saw her very attentive trying to help a man with a disability that was in the group.

Don’t waste time waiting in line as you enter the magnificent Schönbrunn Palace & Gardens. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is Vienna’s most visited attraction and rightly so. Schönbrunn Palace is considered to be one of the most impressive palaces in Vienna after it was expanded and rebuilt into its current form in 1754 as the summer residence of the imperial family.

Follow in the footsteps of Emperor Franz Joseph and Empress Elisabeth on a guided tour through the palace and gardens. Marvel at the former summer residence of the Habsburgs and admire the baroque facade of the palace as you skip the lines and enter the palace. Embrace the royalty as you step into private apartments and rooms lit by chandeliers.

Make your way through the Napoleon Room and Marie Antoinette Room with the help of your guide before entering the 40-meter-long Great Gallery where the Habsburg rulers held their elaborate parties. Hear interesting facts about the personal lives of the Habsburgs as you move through the 22 staterooms. Step outside and stroll through the French-style gardens to discover Roman ruins and ornate fountains. See the Gloriette, a triumphal arch on a hilltop overlooking Vienna’s forests.

What to bring

  • Bring along a pair of sunglasses, a hat, comfortable shoes, a light jacket or sweater for the evenings, and binoculars.
