★★★★★★★★★★4.1 · 566 reviews · 1 hour · from $27

Explore Vienna’s New Hofburg with an audio guide, Imperial Armoury, Mozart’s fortepiano, historic instruments, and Habsburg stories.

“The place is amazing, but what I loved was the option of Czech language in the audio guide. My mom would struggle with English so I was very pleased. The palace is wonderful, the expositions of armor, guns and musical instruments were okay, but nothing too special, however the audio guide is telling a comprehensive story of the Habsburg family it’s history and traditions and that I loved. So while you’re looking at the expositions of armors you’re listening to tales and facts about the whole family.”

“We found this tour really easy and self explanatory. I was given an app to download and everything was there! The only reason why I gave 1 less star is because they should let you know to take a power bank with you as the app drains your battery so had to make sure we found power along our route. Otherwise a great tour! :)”
