Vienna is a beautiful city and on this tour we were shown a lot of this, but because the guide was giving information on so many buildings it was difficult to really take note and understand fully. It was good to have the tour guide show us through the Schonbrunn Palace, but the group was very large and sometimes it was difficult to hear.

Would have benefitted from some narration about the history behind the venue and uts relevance to mozart

Doing what: Schonbrunn Palace Evening: Dinner and Concert

The performance was in a lobby-like hall, not a room as glorious as you imagined.

Super tour of the city with good appropriate timing and informative and knowledgeable guide.

A beautiful setting to set off a very entertaining evening of the world's finest music. I enjoyed the evening and would recommend this to family and friends to enhance their visit to Vienna.

Doing what: Schonbrunn Palace Evening Concert

We took the subway to the palace and it took us almost to the front door of the hall.
We had a very good evening at the concert, music was fantastic, very beautiful voices, did not care for the dancing, did not fit in. I would suggest in not getting the least expensive tickets, you are in the back, no stadium seating. Highly suggest doing this and the evening tour of the Palace.

Great way to start our time in Vienna - covering the basics. Would've been nice to see more of Schonnbrun though. Guide was very informative. For those traveling to Tiroler Platz instead of pick-up, more indications necessary to reach the bus terminal. Else certainly a worthwhile excursion. THX

The concert was nice. The dinner very good. but information on the tour part was not right. so we missed doing the tour.

The tour was fantastic, the dinner was held in the cafe. The food was ok, the service very good. We had seats in the front row (vip) but anywhere in the in the room would have been fine.

The palace and tour were nice. The dinner was not good. No options were provided in the set menu. The concert was small but nice.

Doing what: Schonbrunn Palace Evening Concert

The concert itself isnt anything special just a decent night out and something different from the norm. I actually thought that the concert was a bit too short (1.5h) and unless you have a bit of a knowledge of classical music, most of the pieces were unrecognisable. Nevertheless the entire concert is quite well put together with opera singers, ballet dancers and an orchestra. Value for pricewise its not more than the cheapest rate- I would not pay more than the EUR39 I paid for!!
The concert is also in the Orangery some 100m from Schoenbrunn Palace so when you come out of Schoenbrunn metro station(exit Schoenbrunn), cross the road and turn left. It was snowing when we arrived and we had time to go to the Xmas markets at Schoenbrunn Palace before going to watch the concert.

I was dissappointed with this trip. The tour around the palace was interesting enough. The evening meal was quite tasty but rather basic. They were not many dining so there was very little atmosphere and considering they were so few there I would have thought the service would have been better. The venue for the concert was just part of the same room that we dined it. Not a proper concert venue. We purchased the most expensive tickets for this event and there were not worth it at all. I would have expected that one of the performers could at least have introduced the show as opposed to a recorded voice. The worst part was after our dinner the waiter asked us was it tea or coffee we wanted with our dessert. It was not until we were paying for the bottle of wine which we ordered with our meal that it was brought to our attention that we had to pay for the coffees. I think this was a bit of a rip off!

Concert was unforgettable! The place of dinner and dinner was very much contradticting the concert! So unappropriate!

The dinner was in a back room and felt like going to a high school prom with ALL the festivities at the high school. The symphony orchestra was comprised of 6 musicians. I wad very disappointed and wanted to ask where all the musicians, shown on the cover of the brochure, were hiding.
