Amid Vienna’s oldest jewels is its 450-year-old Spanish Riding School. Housed within the stunning Hofburg Palace, this is the site where the famed white Lipizzan horses practice and classical dressage is artistically performed.
On this exclusive day excursion, go beyond the typical tourist by venturing backstage. Step into the vibrance of this equestrian world and meet your private guide. Together, tour the world’s oldest horse riding academy with a complimentary drink in hand. Or enjoy your cocktail in the elegant Reception Rooms, as you listen to the individual talent stories that ensured the institute’s success.
Wander on through the ambience of the tack room and stables, and meet with a local rider personally. As you unpack all curiosities, he answers your questions with ease. Later, you watch this same charisma on stage beside the graceful stallions. From your seat in the Royal Box where Hapsburg kings once watched, savour a legendary spectacle with the joy of unhindered views.
