Experience Viennas Quirky Side With These Unique Experiences

From Baroque palaces to grand museums, Vienna has a wealth of history you simply can’t miss. But if you fancy seeing the Austrian capital in a fresh light, there are plenty of other things to see and do. Culture Trip has curated a list of unique tours and experiences that will take you to the very heart of the city.

Vienna’s impressive past and its artistic heritage are all in evidence in the Hofburg and Schönbrunn palaces, towering St Stephen’s Cathedral and its famous concert halls. But go off the beaten track to experience the city in a new way. From traditional Austrian music and dance at a dinner show and sampling local cuisine at the food markets to wine tasting in the Wachau Valley, kayaking on the Old Danube and learning about the city’s secrets on a walking tour, these experiences will allow you to discover a new side of Vienna.

Since you are here, we would like to share our vision for the future of travel - and the direction Culture Trip is moving in.
