Visite coupe-file du palais impérial de la Hofburg et du musée Sisi
Description
Lors de cette visite, vous visiterez le palais impérial de la Hofburg, où vous bénéficierez d'une visite guidée du musée Sisi et des appartements impériaux. Avec des origines remontant au Moyen Âge, le palais de la Hofburg a connu une croissance exponentielle entre le XVIe et le XXe siècle et compte encore aujourd'hui 18 bâtiments, 19 cours et plus de 2 500 pièces. Là où autrefois la famille impériale des Habsbourg vivait, travaillait et faisait la fête, un monde de politique, de potins et d'histoire nous ouvre ses portes en tant que musée inscrit au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO. Oubliez les émissions de télévision et la fiction ! Rejoignez cette visite à pied et découvrez la vraie vie de l'impératrice Elisabeth, également connue sous le nom de Sissi. Au cours de la courte promenade, visitez l'église où les Habsbourg se sont mariés (même Marie-Antoinette, qui est née et a grandi à Vienne !). Nous verrons également les écuries où se trouvent les célèbres chevaux lipizzans sur le chemin de l'entrée de la Hofburg. Après la visite du palais, la visite se terminera dans le magnifique Volksgarten, l'un des lieux de tournage les plus populaires de Vienne.

It is too long and could be done without so much fluff in less time. We did not like the guide in general.
I signed up for a tour of the palace and Sissi gardens. This guide was obsessed with Sissi and Joseph II to the exclusion of much info about the palace, much of which was fortunately filled in during our small group city tour the next day. Her description of Archduke Maximillian’s rule of Mexico was just wrong, again filled in the day after on another tour. And also disappointing was her summary at the holocaust memorial sculpture on the way to the palace, a throw in, which lacked even the detail i’d already read on the sign and which appeared to have little concern for the 65000 Austrian Jews who perished. Little mention was made of it, and the description of the bronze figure merely as a Jew without the explanation of its purpose on the sign was disturbing. And again, kudos to the tour the following day for throughly providing a description that was thorough that benefited our fellow tourists that day. Honesty, this was the worst tour I have ever experienced, and I have been on many. It deserves no stars.
Hi Brian, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. We would like to clarify that this was booked as a Hofburg and Sisi Museum tour, and the focus of this tour is therefore Empress Elisabeth, the imperial family, and the historical context connected to the museum visit. For this reason, the guide’s focus was in line with the tour description. Regarding the monument against war and fascism, we fully agree that it is an important and sensitive part of Vienna’s history. As it is not part of the main tour content, it is only briefly mentioned while passing by on the way to the palace. We are sorry if this short explanation did not meet your expectations. For guests interested in a deeper focus on this period of history, we also offer a separate 2.5-hour “Hitler’s Vienna” tour, which is specifically dedicated to this topic. Our guide is an experienced colleague and historian, and we stand by the structure and content of the tour as described at the time of booking. We are sorry that this tour was not what you personally hoped for, but it did indeed reflect the tour that was booked by you. Best regards, Allie - Good Vienna Tours
Really enjoyed this tour! Our guide was very knowledgeable, and she made our time in the museum interesting.
Brigitte was a wonderful and conscientious guide through the museum. Her tour was well-paced and informative while being humorous throughout. An injured knee meant stairs and extended standing were difficult, and Brigitte made note of that early, got us on an elevator for the stairs at the beginning, and helped locate chairs throughout the tour.
Very narrow passage and a lot of tourism for the space. They should accept less people at the same time but it's very interesting and magnificent.
Excellent guide very acknowledge about history and tales of Hofburg and Sisi Museum
Spectacular. The power of Austria is on full display on this opulent palace. Guide Alexander made the exhibits come alive through his storytelling.
Thank you very much for amazing tour. We had an excellent time. Excursion was very interesting and we learn a lot about imperial family.
Billiana was a joy to be with. She was knowledgeable and patient. We had 8 family members in our group. It was very comfortable. Lots of fun facts were shared.
Good guide. Clear explanation. Took plenty of time to explain. Comical in time. Good start time.
