Vienna: Schlumberger Wine Cellar Guided or Self-Guided Tour

8.Schlumberger Wine Cellar Guided or Self-Guided Tour

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 285 reviews · 1 day · from $15Best value

Schlumberger Kellerwelten takes you through cellar vaults dating to the company’s 1842 founding. Follow a 60-minute audio tour, try hand-riddling bottles, and finish with a choice of sparkling, rosé, or mixed tasting set. It is self-guided, with audio in eight languages, and sits about 20 minutes by public transport from Stephansplatz.

“We thought this self guided tour and tasting was great value for the money. I highly recommend it if you enjoy sparkling wine. I thought they were related to the Schlumberger winery in California but there is no connection. These wines are solely produced in Vienna and I highly recommend you try them as they do not distribute in the states. Also, I love the self guided tours with audio guide as you can do them at your own pace. They open at 12PM so my suggestion is to book it for that time. We were there about 2 hours before a large tour group came in and the place…”

“Taras was great! We had a wonderful time. The only slight issue was that we were left without an English speaking guide for about 10 minutes during the boat tour of the underground lake. We had no idea what the German-speaking guide was saying but it was really cool to see it anyways!”

15.Wine Tasting at Schönbrunn Palace

★★★★★★★★★★4.3 · 71 reviews · from $51

At Restaurant Joseph II at Schönbrunn, an English- or German-speaking instructor guides you through five small pours of traditional Viennese wine. You’ll get information about the wines and their place in Vienna’s Heurigen culture, plus a small wine-tavern snack. The tasting lasts one hour; palace admission is not included.

“Our wine tasting…hmm. Seemed like a surprise when we arrived. But things were soon set up and our wine tasting as a party of 2 continued. I would think that an activity like this would have a minimum booking number; if the bar had been really busy I imagine it would be quite stressful to provide a wine tasting just for 2. Anyway, good selection of Austrian wines”
