Wavelengths 2023 Agenda

Optional sightseeing tour of Vienna

We start our city walk directly in the world-famous Vienna City Park, the green lung of Vienna's city center. Here is the monument to the Viennese waltz king Johann  Strauss. Then we walk through the narrow streets of Vienna's city center, take a look into the hidden courtyards of the old residential buildings until we reach the heart of the city center, Vienna's St. Stephen's Cathedral, the largest Gothic in Austria. We continue walking along the Kärntner Straße until we reach the Vienna State Opera and continue then via the National Library to the Hofburg that hosts the former imperial residence, the treasury and the Spanish Riding School – home of the White Ballet.  There you have the chance to take a rare look behind the scenes of the Spanish Riding School during a guided tour.  You will visit the baroque Winter Riding School, the Summer Riding School with one of the world’s largest oval horse walkers and the stables of the Lipizzan stallions, which have been located in the Stallburg (one of Vienna’s most prominent Renaissance buildings) for more than 450 years.  You will visit the most important areas of our historic institution and will learn about our history, equestrian traditions and about our stars–the Lipizzan stallions!

The cost for this 3-hour guided tour is €66 per person and includes an English-speaking guide and head-sets.  Please note that the tour is subject to availability at the time of booking.
