Head out and discover the city's iconic highlights, including Vienna State Opera, the Town Hall, the Burgtheatre, and the splendid Hofburg Imperial Palace. Admire world-class art and fascinating exhibits at the Belvedere Palace, the Leopold Museum, and the Kunsthistorisches Museum, or simply enjoy the city's renowned coffeehouse culture before indulging in a selection of Viennese delicacies.
To make your time in Vienna even more memorable, why not consider an optional tour. Skip the line and follow in the footsteps of Emperor Franz Joseph and Empress Elisabeth with a guided tour of the magnificent Schönbrunn Palace and Gardens before exploring at your own leisure. You could also choose to embark on a scenic hop-on hop-off double-decker Big Bus tour, passing top sights like Schönbrunn Palace, St. Stephen's Cathedral, and the Belvedere, all while enjoying audio commentary and free Wi-Fi.
Day 3: Vienna - Budapest
After experiencing the Austrian capital's heartwarming culture, head to the station for your comfortable train journey to Budapest. Upon arrival, catch a glimpse of the city's spectacular sights and perhaps try out the local cuisine before checking into your inviting hotel.
Day 4: Budapest
As you set off on your city slicking adventures, make sure to look out for the majestic Buda Castle and St. Stephen's Basilica, two iconic landmarks that grace the city skyline. Immerse yourself in the vibrant atmosphere of the Great Market Hall, discover fascinating artifacts at the Hungarian National Museum, and further explore the Buda Castle District, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. You could even take a dip in one of the city's renowned thermal baths, or spend your time flitting between the region's numerous cafés and bars.
To make your time in Budapest even more memorable, why not consider an optional tour. No visit to the city is complete without having seen, or better yet, having been inside the ornate Hungarian Parliament Building to uncover its rich history via audio guide.
