Description:
The lavish Baroque palace with 1,441 rooms and charmingly landscaped gardens is among the top attractions of Europe. With hassle-free private transportation and the personalized services of an expert guide, admire the opulent interiors and the meticulous park of this imperial residence.
Built as a hunting lodge in the 16th century, Schönbrunn is a prime example of glorious Baroque architecture. Formerly the epicenter of the Habsburg dynasty's power, the vast opulent complex draws more than 2 million visitors each year. After arriving at the gates by a private chauffeured vehicle, use a reserved entrance and stroll through the stately halls with a professional guide.
Hear intriguing stories about the quirks of the Habsburgs, who smartly exercised their influence in world politics for centuries. Learn about the life of major rulers such as Empress Maria Theresa and her daughter—who became Queen of France under the well-known name of Marie Antoinette—and see the apartments of Franz Joseph I and his beloved wife Elizabeth.
You also have time to explore the stunning gardens, home the Gloriette, a gracious structure on top of a 200-foot (60-m) hill, offering panoramic views over Vienna. Admire the intricate features of the impressive Neptune Fountain before you are comfortably whisked away to your hotel in the city center.
