About this school trip

For centuries Vienna was the capital of the Habsburg Empire, and it is still a city of palaces, museums and music. For upper secondary and vocational students, the Austrian capital offers a varied programme of music, art, politics and history.

At Schönbrunn Palace, the Habsburgs' summer residence and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, your students discover how the empire was governed. At the Kunsthistorisches Museum they come face to face with masterpieces from many centuries. The Haus der Musik shows in an interactive way how music works and tells the story of composers who lived in Vienna. A visit to the Parliament ties in nicely with lessons on democracy, and a concert or guided tour of the State Opera rounds off the trip.

We would be delighted to take care of transport for you and your students to Vienna. It is a long journey, so we plan an overnight stop on the way or spread the drive with plenty of rest breaks. In our comfortable coach with an experienced driver you travel safely and in comfort.
