Vienna: Private City Tour Ringstrasse & Hofburg PalaceYou get picked up from your hotel in a private car with a licensed guide who takes you along the Ringstrasse, through Hofburg Palace and Heroes' Square, to the colorful Hundertwasser House, and past the Belvedere Palace gardens and Danube River.
