Follow in the footsteps of Empress Maria Theresa from the Lantern Room to the Hunting Room on the piano mobile. You will see more than individual visitors who go on the Imperial Tour, which skips some of the highlights. Throughout the tour, our Expert Guide will point out the impressive artwork, intricate architecture, and ornate furnishings that adorn each room and share interesting facts about the lavish court life of the Habsburg dynasty, including Sisi and Maria Theresa. After leaving the palace interiors, we will venture out into the expansive gardens, which are home to numerous statues, fountains, and other architectural features like the Roman ruins and Gloriette. Only this combined tour of the palace and gardens.
