“We loved it! The only negative side is that the heating was extremely high and it made us sleepy all the time! Plus we felt we wanted to seat the whole time whilst listening the audio guide.. i would suggest to keeping it down with the heating:)”
Tour Vienna’s New Hofburg with an audio guide, imperial armor, Mozart’s fortepiano, grand rooms, and Habsburg history for $27.
“The museum was really good, displaying the suit of armour on the top floor, and the middle had history from all over the world.”
Tour Vienna’s Schlumberger cellars, learn traditional sparkling-wine making, hand-riddle bottles, and taste three Austrian wines.
“We thought this self guided tour and tasting was great value for the money. I highly recommend it if you enjoy sparkling wine. I thought they were related to the Schlumberger winery in California but there is no connection. These wines are solely produced in Vienna and I highly recommend you try them as they do not distribute in the states. Also, I love the self guided tours with audio guide as you can do them at your own pace. They open at 12PM so my suggestion is to book it for that time. We were there about 2 hours before a large tour group came in and the place…”
