These four Christmas Markets are easily accessible from our Big Bus stops, and on our walking tour.

Vienna's Christmas markets reflect a long tradition in Vienna, and they make the Advent Season even more special by allowing guests to enjoy nostalgic carousels, festive trains, and treats like sweet chestnuts and gingerbread. You'll also find winter warmers like Vienna's best punch and mulled wine variations, accompanied by traditional Viennese Christmas music.
