Vienna in December is the best-known Advent trip from Zagreb. The market in front of City Hall, the streets around St Stephen's Cathedral and Schönbrunn Palace can all be seen in one day with a little planning.

We drive your group from your pick-up point to Vienna and back. You plan the programme in the city yourselves or with your group leader, and we take care of departure times and the drivers' legal rest.

Frequently asked questions

Why is a second driver needed?

From departure to return the day can last up to 18 hours. One coach driver is not allowed to work that long in a day, so we run this tour with two drivers. That is already included in the price.

Can I book a single seat on the coach?

No. We run this tour as transport for a closed group, such as a school, parish, association, club, company or agency. The price is for the whole coach; the per-person amount is only an illustration for a group of 45.

What if there are fewer than 45 of us?

The coach costs roughly the same, so the cost per person goes up. For a smaller group, ask about travelling by car as well. Our quote is based on your actual number of passengers.
