Vienna Evening Experience and Wine Tasting

Experience all the charm of Vienna after dark during this three hour guided bus tour. Under a sky full of twinkling stars, see the most popular attractions in Vienna, including Hofburg Palace, The Giant Ferris Wheel, and the charming town of Grinzing, where you can sample local wine.

Start your tour as you ride along the Ringstrasse and see many historic sights, such as the beautiful Vienna State Opera, which dates back to the mid-19th century. You will also see the Museum of Art History that houses artwork from iconic artists such as Rembrandt and Michelangelo. Another sight you will see is the Museum of Natural History. There are over 30 million different objects inside this glorious museum. The Heroes' Square, home to the imperial Hofburg Palace and the neoclassical Parliament, will surely amaze you with its impressive architecture.

Shortly thereafter, you will arrive at Weiner Riesenrad, also known as The Giant Ferris Wheel, at the Prater. You can even go for a spin to experience the views of Vienna that many envy and few will see. Your ticket for the ride is included in this tour. The Ferris Wheel is 64.75 meters tall (212 feet) and is a popular spot for first dates, marriage proposals, and tremendous panoramic views of the city.

You will finish this astonishing tour of Vienna at night by visiting a local wine tavern in the village Grinzing. While you are at the wine tavern you can enjoy a complimentary 1/4th liter of red or white wine made locally by winemakers or you can enjoy a complimentary non-alcoholic beverage of your choice. If you're hungry, enjoy a delicious dinner of local cuisine for an extra charge. Get a real sense of the culture by listening to music and experiencing the nightlife in Grinzing.
