Self-Guided Walking Tours to Explore Vienna, Austria
Vienna is a fairy tale book, and you can walk around the pages that you like the most. Teeming with imperial history, musical and architectural heritage, the Austrian capital has a lot to see and do. If you are visiting for the first time, our introduction walk will take you to the most essential sights. Make sure not to miss a stroll through the atmospheric, largely pedestrianised Old Town, and take time to appreciate the city's charming Art Nouveau landmarks (Art Nouveau I + Art Nouveau II). Special walks dedicated to Vienna's most famous residents – Johann Strauss, Gustav Klimt and Mozart – will help gain a more complete understanding of their lives and work.
In all, we have prepared 11 self-guided walks for you to explore Vienna, which cover everything from world-class architecture and museums to shopping opportunities. Not only that, but you can also create your own walk with the attractions that interest you most and even set your hotel as the walk's starting point!
