Editor’s Note: Viator recently held a contest to “Win Your Dream Travel Job” where we selected 4 finalists to travel the world shooting video. For 60 days, these teams traveled and filmed in some of the world’s top destinations, documenting their experiences along the way. Go here to watch their unforgettable journey!
Time to hop on another train! For this part of their trip, Ryan and Asha traveled from Munich to Vienna to spend a few days in the Austrian capital.
As they were traveling, Ryan and Asha filmed hundreds of hours of footage, which includes dozens of Viator tours plus some fun behind-the-scenes moments. Stay tuned for more tour video updates in the coming months, and in the meantime check out a recap of some of the adventures they captured on their iPad!
Day 1
On another scenic ride around Europe, the team caught a glimpse of the Austrian hills made famous in The Sound of Music.
"The hills are alive..."
“Those are some good-lookin’ mountains!”
Day 2
On a Vienna City Walking Tour, they became familiar with the city’s top attractions, such as Ringstrasse, Stephansdom, Heldenplatz and the Spanish Riding School, plus its lesser known spots. They even got to enjoy some music on the street:
That afternoon they paid a visit to the Vienna Prater, an outdoor area and amusement park that includes the giant ferris wheel, the Riesenrad, one of Vienna’s famous sights.
"Now THIS is a ferris wheel!" - Ryan
Day 3
Ryan and Asha were able to enjoy another bike tour – and this one included wine tasting! On the Wine Tasting Bike Tour from Vienna, they spent a day exploring the Austrian countryside.
Then that night they got dressed up for a Schonbrunn Palace Evening: Palace Tour, Dinner and Concert for a royal evening at the former summer residence of the imperial family.
“Don’t get stressed, get Straussed!” says Ryan.
A special thanks to their guide, Adam, who helped them get around in Vienna!
Thanks, Adam!
Next stop: Istanbul!
