Listen to stories from days gone by until today of the proud city and its royal past! Your tour also takes you to the interesting Hundertwasser House, designed by the architect Friedensreich Hundertwasser.  Built in the '80s, the house has no right angles, features trees on the roof, and a colorful facade. It has become a part of Vienna's cultural heritage and is one of the most visited buildings in Vienna.

Enjoy your dinner in a restaurant.
