Discover the attractions of the Austrian capital with this walking tour of Vienna that includes a guided tour of the State Opera House, one of the most iconic buildings in the city.
Vienna & State Opera House Tour
We'll begin our guided walk through Vienna's historic center at Albertinaplatz, next to the Danube Fountain.
During our tour, we'll learn about the great link between the House of Habsburg and the history of Spain. We'll review these links next to the Hofburg Imperial Palace, one of whose wings houses the Spanish Riding School. The activities of this important institution, which dates back to the 16th century, have been included on the list of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
After viewing the exterior architecture of these majestic buildings, we'll continue our tour through the center of Vienna at St. Stephen's Cathedral. We'll observe the architectural styles of its façade, where we'll be able to appreciate elements of Romanesque and, above all, Gothic architecture.
Our next stop is the Heldenplatz, where Hitler announced the annexation of Austria to the Third Reich. From here, we'll head to the nearby Burggarten park, where we'll learn some curiosities about Austrian music next to the statue of Mozart.
The tour will end with a guided tour of the Vienna State Opera, where we'll continue to experience the Austrian passion for music by visiting the stalls and the stage area, one of the most famous opera temples in the world.
