CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5Belvedere Palace was one of the highlights of my visit to Vienna. The palace itself is stunning, with beautiful Baroque architecture and well-maintained gardens that are perfect for a relaxing walk. The atmosphere feels elegant and historical, offering visitors a glimpse into Austria’s imperial past. One of the most impressive parts of the visit was the art collection inside, especially Gustav Klimt’s famous painting “The Kiss,” which attracts visitors from all over the world. The gardens connecting the Upper and Lower Belvedere are beautifully designed, providing excellent views and great opportunities for photography. The palace grounds are clean, organized, and easy to explore. I also appreciated the informative exhibitions that helped me better understand Austrian history and culture. Overall, Belvedere Palace is a must-visit attraction in Vienna. Whether you are interested in history, architecture, art, or simply beautiful scenery, it offers an unforgettable experience and is well worth the visit.DDimitrios P
CoupleVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5It was very interesting, but I had hoped to see a few more exercises that you usually only get to see during a performance—which, unfortunately, they didn’t have time for. In any case, the visit was still worth it because we learned and saw so much about the Spanish Riding School The information we could hear over the loudspeakers was very detailed.AAndreas W
GroupVerified bookingJun 20265/5The speaker was great—you could understand her very well, and she also told the story of the HRS!! You could see that the horses have a mind of their own, but the riders did a great job of regaining control of the horses, which is what makes the training so interesting!! It’s definitely worth a visit !!!!!!!!MMagda K
CoupleVerified bookingLast week4/5It was amazing to see The Kiss! It was definitely a dream, and I loved that it wasn't too crowded, we got to take cute photos in front of it (I was scared it would be packed with people and we would hardly be even to come close)AAnne M
SoloVerified booking3 weeks ago5/5very enjoyable and interesting art gallery ; not too crowded when we vsisyted so a good view of all the key paintings we wanted to see (especially the Bruegel and Klimt).
