Experience Vienna with classic car tour to the surrounding countryside

Vienna is not only a glamorous city, Vienna is a way of life. You will feel and experience a touch of this unique attitude towards life and the flair of the Austrian capital during this incentive trip. Be it the venerable Vienna with its famous buildings or the modernity of the pulsating city: let us take you away. During a city tour you will get to know highlights of the old town. You will enjoy an aperitif during an evening cruise on the Danube through the illuminated city. Your classic car rally will then also take you to the surrounding countryside of Vienna. Of course, you will not lack anything culinary during the whole trip. Look forward to a special Vienna experience.

Day 1 Welcome to Vienna - City Tour and Cocktail Cruise on the Danube

Once you arrive in the Austrian capital, a bus will take you directly to the hotel where you can check in at your leisure. After freshening up a bit, your guides will be waiting for you for a first orientation walk through Vienna. During the old town walk you will discover narrow streets, hidden backyards and romantic corners and you can admire the architectural diversity of the old town. And then there’s a special surprise for you: On an exclusively rented terrace of the Albertina Art Museum in the heart of the city, we invite you to a champagne reception accompanied by a string ensemble. Let the flair and impressions of this city take effect on you. Before dinner, enjoy your aperitif during an evening cruise through illuminated Vienna. After an hour’s journey, the ship moors at the landing stage of Vienna’s new hotspot. We welcome your guests in the trendy restaurant “Motto am Fluss”. Like a sleek speed boat, the restaurant is located on the Danube Canal, right next to Schwedenplatz. On two levels, scene host Bernd Schlacher has created an extensive gastronomy landscape. The hotspot on the Danube Canal is an architectural highlight. At first glance, the building could be mistaken for a ship. The heart of the “Motto am Fluss” is the restaurant on the second floor. The furnishings are reminiscent of the Venetian style of the 1950s: benches and tables with slender legs set at an angle, typical of the period. Black and white tile floors and a special attention to details such as lamps and glasses. Regional, organic food is served as part of your menu. Look forward to a beautiful first evening in Vienna.

2nd day classic car rally and gala dinner

After a leisurely breakfast at the hotel, we start for the first highlight of the day. We’ll take you back to a time when automobiles smelled of leather, chrome sparkled and plastic was a foreign word. Our bus will take you to Gramatneusied, which is about 30 minutes not far from Vienna, to the Automobile and Motorcycle Museum. Once you arrive at the museum, we will welcome you with a welcome drink and invite you to take a tour of the museum. This will be followed by the handover of the roadbooks, the allocation of the classic cars and a detailed introduction. Now it can start and the teams, divided into 2-4 persons, drive to the individual checkpoints according to a route given in the roadbook. Passing Laxenburg Castle, the tour continues to Mödling and Gumpoldskirchen, via Pfaffstätten to Baden to Hotel Schloss Weikersdorf, where lunch is provided. Together you will then drive back to the Automobile and Motorcycle Museum. With coffee and cake you can review the experience together. A transfer will then take you back to the hotel and you can enjoy your free time. In the evening we meet in the hotel lobby, from where we take a leisurely walk to the Daun-Kinsky Palace (approx. 15 min. walk). The noble Palais Daun-Kinsky on Vienna’s Freyung is still one of the city’s most impressive buildings in terms of art history. It captivates not only by the richness of variation in the interior design, but also by magnificent stuccowork, beautiful fresco quadrature painting in the Oval Ceremonial Hall and various sculptures. After the champagne reception in the men’s salon, guests are greeted by ladies in baroque costumes and escorted to the tables. The in-house kitchen meets the highest standards and is exclusively available to the guests of the house. During the dinner we will also have a small award ceremony where the best of today’s classic car tour will be awarded. Optionally, we can gladly incorporate further highlights into the evening program: For example, your guests can be welcomed by a master of ceremonies in front of the palace and escorted to the Beletage by footmen, also dressed in period attire. During the sect reception, an actress appears in the guise of Countess Kinky and tells court gossip from the time of Maria Theresa. We are also happy to book an ensemble for the musical background of the dinner as well as a dance performance of the classical Viennese waltz by dancing couples. Afterwards we will walk back to the hotel individually.

Day 3 Farewell to Vienna

Enjoy another leisurely breakfast at the hotel before checking out around noon. Depending on your return flight or return time, you may have some free time to stroll the city streets on your own.

Optionally we would like to invite you to a brunch in the “Green Prater”, the former hunting ground of the Habsburgs in the Danube area. To get to the restaurant Lusthaus, we would prepare a special surprise. Your guests can choose between three original means of transportation: 1. hackney carriages – they belong to Vienna like St. Stephen’s Cathedral and the Ferris wheel. A ride in one of the two-horse carriages is one of the highlights for many guests. There is almost no more comfortable way to explore the beauties of Vienna. 2. rickshaw – Take a seat in a comfortable rickshaw and let it show you the charming city by eco-friendly 1 hp variant. It will not cost you any effort, yet you will have the pleasure of passing live sights at a pleasant speed and viewing them in detail. 3. segway – on the guided segway tour you will get the most modern and newest segways. Before the ride starts, you will receive a briefing of about 30 minutes. ON THE SEGWAYS, DONE, GO… Fun is guaranteed here. Later, your exclusive transfer to the airport will follow, from where you will start your journey home.

Visiting Vienna

Vienna Old Timer Parade

Oh, for the days when road rage meant refusing to doff your hat at a passing pedestrian. Road manners may not have survived, but a lot of the vehicles have. And as part of the annual Vienna Classic Days event, catch a cavalcade of old timers as they drive around Vienna’s historical Ringstrassen.

• Delightful parade of dozens of classic cars and other vehicles
• Route follows the Ring boulevard
• The vehicles typically go round twice
• 2025 date: TBA (was Aug 24 in 2024)
• Typically sometime late afternoon / early evening
• Vienna in August
• Transport museum (old timer trams)

Vienna Classic Days

(An old timer for an old city)

The classic car community comes together once a year in Vienna for a weekend of community activities. The highlight, especially for those of us (cough) driving a rather-boring 2012 Opel Astra, is the annual old timer parade.

The authorities close down the Ringstrassen roads , which mark the edge of the old town, plus Franz-Josef’s-Kai next to the Danube canal . This frees up a circular route for the parade to drive around.

(Glorious in racing green)

Tourists and locals gather to spot everything from Minis, Morris Minors and Maseratis to Ferraris, Cadillacs and Pontiacs. Not forgetting the obligatory early Rolls Royce.

The drivers and passengers join in with the old timer spirit, often dressing up in period clothes and waving merrily to the assembled crowds.

(Plenty of storage space for the luggage)

Even those with a singular disinterest in cars can’t help but marvel at the range of shapes, sizes, colours, and conditions of the vehicles, and the all-round high spirits of the participants.

2025 dates, tickets & tips

The event for owners of classic cars normally takes place across a summer weekend with numerous activities. I don’t have 2025 dates just yet, but the previous edition ran across August 24th and 25th.

The old timer parade usually happens on the Saturday in the late afternoon or early evening. You don’t need a ticket to watch; just line up along the route (see below). The vehicles typically go round twice.

Keep an eye on the official website for the latest info, timings, and details.

How to get to the parade

This might be the easiest event to “visit”, since the vehicles drive all the way around the roads that encircle the city’s old town first district.

Start anywhere in the very centre and walk in a straight line…you’ll reach some part of the route within a few minutes.

The Ring along the west side of the old town has more wonderful historical buildings than other parts, so might make a better backdrop for photos.

We stood outside the parliament building , for example, and got lovely views of all the vehicles as they passed by.
