2.Exclusive Evening at Schönbrunn Palace: After-Hours Audiotour, Dinner, Concert

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 930 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $170

Visit Schönbrunn Palace after closing with a self-guided audio tour, eat a three-course Austrian dinner nearby, then hear Mozart and Strauss in the Orangery. Choose VIP seating for front rows, priority access, drinks, and a program.

“The reasons I give 3 stars are the following two: 1. There should be detailed directions and photos for the meeting point as well as for the opera building. Otherwise it's very crowded place and hard to figure it out . 2. The concert was a joke. The floor was not inclined and the chairs were aligned back to back. As a result you could not see anything. I left in less than 5 min. If you ask me if I would do it again the answer is No.”

3.Schönbrunn Palace Evening Tour, Dinner and Concert

★★★★★★★★★★4.4 · 889 reviews · 6 hours · from $167

Spend six hours at Schönbrunn Palace with a self-guided audio tour in 16 languages, a three-course Austrian dinner, and a Mozart and Strauss concert with two opera singers. Arrive by 5:15 PM to collect your palace pass, dinner voucher, and concert tickets.

“Just the tour of the palace is worth it, it’s like taking a semi-private self-tour, they give you auto-guide and the palace it’s empty for your enjoyment. The dinner it’s good but forgettable, it’s at the restaurant. The concert it’s at an other building (part of the palace compound) but at some point resemblance a nice warehouse with nice chairs, but the space between them are súper small (if you have the budget, go for at least zone A. We think that they forget to turn on the AC, because it was so hot in there (we went in December). The singers were bad, musicians average; but definitely not worth…”

“There was no guide to take us to dinner… had to pick up tickets from office and was given directions how to get to restaurant at the end of the street and across the road…. As I was a single person I didn’t even get seated in the same part of the restaurant the couple of other people were seated. The food was very ordinary….. the concert was great though even if you weren’t allowed to take photos or videos…. But I think this activity was over priced.”

5.Evening at Schönbrunn Palace Vienna: 3-course Dinner and Concert

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 278 reviews · 4 hours (approx.) · from $122

Enjoy a three-course Viennese dinner near Schönbrunn, then hear Mozart and Strauss performed by the palace orchestra with opera singers and ballet dancers. Choose from four seating categories, or upgrade to VIP for priority access, drinks, a program, and cloakroom service.

“I wanted to really enjoy this experience. Dinner was not an enjoyable experience, it was more of a production line. All seated in a row and serve all at the same time. We hadn't even finished dessert when the staff was taking off the table cloth and making us feel uncomfortable to be there. The concert was lovely. I would save the money next time and eat some where else and just come for the concert.”
