Your Travel Experience with Avellera
Highlights
Christmas markets in Vienna are a must-see! We all know the beautiful pictures of the Rathausplatz but make no mistake, we as locals avoid this super crowded and super touristy market. Still, we encourage you to check it out on your own!
Well then what happens on our Christmas market tour? Well we asked ourselves, where are the best christmas markets, where the locals love to go? Can we visit these christmas markets by foot easily and have a unique holly-jolly experience?
Well, you guessed it, the answer is yes!
Meet a local guide to get an inside look at Vienna’s Christmas markets, and visit 4 of our favorite spots in the city’s alternative districts. Immerse yourself in the traditions of the Christmas season with hot punch with extra rum and Christmas biscuits to munch on along the way. Listen to fun stories, see one of the largest culture rooms in the world and more. Buy gifts at market stalls adorned with unique items and festive artifacts, and sample delicious candy that will put you in the Christmas spirit.
The tour begins at a cozy market in front of the church. There you will meet your tour guide and receive your first sweet treat. When the group is ready, you will continue to the streets of the Spittelberg area. Watch out, this market is romantic and cozy, but we don’t want to lose you at the beginning, so follow your guide and yellow umbrella. At Spittelberg we will have a second tasting point with savory and sweet delicacies. While our team prepares the table for the group, you will have 15-20 minutes of free time to stroll the streets and visit the market stalls. Spittelberg has many secrets and fun stories to offer, and once you’ve met them all, we’ll head to the municipal market in the MQ district, where the former royal stalls are now an artistic hotspot in the city. The Christmas Market at the MQ follows this mood, with a modern concept and unusual artistic creations. At the MQ we will drink punch and mulled wine, if the group is motivated, also play some games and make a photo stop. The last stop of the tour is the Christmas Village at Marien Theresien Platz, where a final surprise is waiting for you. Interested, huh? Join us this winter and discover the magical time of the year.
