Overview

Available languages

Mobile ticket

This is not a standard sightseeing trip; it is a curated journey through the soul of Austria, told through its wine. While other tours stick to the surface, we invite you to understand the "terroir" of history.

What makes this tour unique is our "Time-Travel" concept: we connect the imperial grandeur of the Habsburgs with the ancient Roman roots of winemaking and the bold innovations of today's young vintners. You will taste wine in a 900-year-old monastery, stand on Roman foundations that date back 2,000 years, and chat with modern winemakers in their boutique cellars.

Traveling with a dedicated two-person team (Driver + Guide) elevates your experience: your guide is always by your side sharing stories, while your driver ensures a safe, smooth ride between tastings. This is the ultimate "History through the Glass" experience for those who appreciate culture, comfort, and gastronomy.

What To Expect

Stift Klosterneuburg

We begin our journey at the majestic Klosterneuburg Abbey, founded in 1114. This isn't just a winery; it's a piece of Austrian imperial history. First, we visit the Imperial Treasury to see the "Archducal Hat" (the crown of Lower Austria) and learn how the Babenberg dynasty and the Habsburgs shaped this region. The Roots of Wine: You will discover how medieval monks laid the foundation for Austrian viticulture. The Tasting: We conclude the visit with a curated tasting of 3 wines from the monastery’s estate, comparing varieties from the Vienna region and the Danube Valley.
