Itinerary

Your tour begins in central Vienna

Your adventure into history begins as soon as you walk through the doors of Sisi’s Amazing Journey at Habsburgergasse 3, a short stroll from the Hofburg in central Vienna. Settle into your motion seat, put on your headset, and let the English audio guide set the scene for Empress Sisi's world.

Discover Sisi's story through playful anecdotes

Your experience opens with a film and 20 humorous anecdotes about Empress Elisabeth. Learn the juicy secrets behind her imperial life, from her fairytale wedding to her restless spirit, told with wit and warmth.

Glide through Vienna's canals by VR boat

Next, sink into a state-of-the-art boat simulator and set off down Vienna's canals beside the Empress herself. Feel the seat sway as the city drifts past in vivid virtual reality, blending history with cutting-edge animation.

Relive the imperial wedding voyage to Linz

Travel back to Sisi's wedding voyage from Vienna to Linz, greeted by cheering crowds and a grand paddle steamer. The animation surrounds you with period detail, so you sense the excitement of the young empress's big day.

Descend into the shadows of old Vienna

Plunge below the streets into Vienna's eerie underworld, winding through the old sewer system for a dose of scary fun. Spooky characters and dramatic light and sound bring the city's darker legends to life around your seat.

Meet the imperial family at the palace

Land at the imperial palace for a warm, personal chat with Sisi's family, a quiet moment among all the motion. Heartfelt stories and lifelike animation make the Habsburgs feel human, not just faces from a history book.

Your tour ends inside Sisi’s Amazing Journey

Finally, soar over Vienna on a breathtaking 360-degree panoramic flight beside the Empress. Then, hand in your headset, bid farewell to the friendly staff, and head back out onto modern-day streets with a newfound appreciation for Vienna’s history.
