Grand Vienna makes the perfect place for a city getaway trip to Europe! The architecture, the atmosphere, the history, the grandeur - Vienna is all these...and more!

Vienna is a varied city with many different activities. Your itinerary will depend on your tastes and preferences. Museums abound and Vienna's center is more like an outdoor museum than a city!

Although your itinerary will depend on you, a trip to Vienna wouldn't be complete without the following: sipping coffee at a real Viennese Kaffeehaus (café); visiting the gothic Stephansdom; viewing the architectural wonders on the Ringstrasse; the Hofburg Imperial Palace; the Kunsthistorisches Museum (Museum of Fine Arts), one of the most impressive museums in the world; the opulent interior of the Schloss Schonbrunn (Schonbrunn Palace); the Schloss Belvedere, one of the finest baroque palaces in the world, and the nearby Botanical Gardens!

Other options include the Riesenrad (Ferris wheel); Tiergarten, the world's oldest zoo; the Vienna Boy's Choir and the famous Spanish Lipizzaner horses. Vienna is a classical music mecca so why not enjoy an opera at the Staatsoper, one of the top opera houses in the world, or an evening of classical music? You may also visit some of Beethoven's or Mozart's old haunts. (Note: Ticket requests for the Spanish Lipizzaner horses, Vienna Boy's Choir, the opera, or any classical music venue requires a minimum of three months advanced notice.)

Of course there will be plenty of time for shopping, sampling the local cuisine, visiting all the sites and thoroughly soaking in this famous world city. Your three days will go by quickly, but the memories will last a lifetime!
