Austria’s Imperial capital, Vienna offers a unique blend of imperial traditions and stunning modern architecture. It is famous for its cultural events, imperial sights, coffee houses, cozy wine taverns, and the very special Viennese charm. Next stop iconic Prague. A magical city of bridges, cathedrals, goldtipped towers and church domes. Almost undamaged by WWII, Prague’s medieval centre remains a wonderful mixture of cobbled lanes, walled courtyards, cathedrals and countless church spires all in the shadow of her majestic 9th century castle that looks eastward as the sun sets behind her. With a unique, youthful atmosphere, a world-class classical music scene as well as a pulsating night life increasingly appreciated among European youth and, last but not least, an exceptionally rich offering of natural thermal baths, Budapest is one of Europe’s most delightful and enjoyable cities and has been nicknamed as “Paris of the East” for its scenic setting.

ITINERARY SCHEDULE

1 :- Arrive in Vienna

Upon arrival in Vienna, private transfer from Airport to Hotel Rest of the day at Leisure.
In the evening head over to the Giant Ferris Wheel in the Prater on own. An amusement park for many, place of nostalgic dreams for some, oasis of greenery for almost everyone – and the location of the Giant Ferris Wheel, one of Vienna’s most famous symbols offering a unique view of the city of Vienna. While away an hour at one of Vienna’s famed coffeehouses. Among the most prominent are the Cafés Landtmann, Hawelka, Central, Mozart and Demel
EVENING Visit a Viennese Heuriger (on own) , the uniquely Viennese style of wine tavern. As Vienna is the world’s only major city producing its own wines within city limits— fantastic wines, to be precise— an evening at a Heuriger shouldn‘t be missed. Here, in a comfortable and low-key atmosphere, join the Viennese as they savor the local wines and fine culinary accompaniments. At a true Heuriger only Viennese wines are served, many world class. These unique taverns can be found in the wine-growing regions of the city—places like Neustift and Grinzing, or Stammersdorf and Jedlersdorf. When you see
a bunch of pine branches and the word “Ausg‘steckt” written on a board, you‘ll know you‘ve found one of these special taverns.
If you are looking for more late-night entertainment, the Gürtel ring road is fast becoming the nerve center of Vienna’s nightlife. Beloved old music venues and mainstays like the Chelsea, B72 and Q [kju:] are being joined by new venues in the arches beneath the elevated subway— itself an architectural marvel.
STILL GOING? Reward your stamina with a late-night snack at a typical Viennese hot dog stand. Just steps away is the Bitzinger sausage stand, widely held to be the city’s best—and your shot at feeling like a true local.
