Orientation Tour of Innsbruck - Funicular ride to Visit Hungerburg mountain - Visit Swarovski Crystal Museum, the dazzling world of crystals
Today we proceed for an orientation tour of Innsbruck, one of the beautiful cities of Austria.
Begin your exploration at Herzog Friedrich Street in the Centre of Innsbruck. Admire Innsbruck’s famous shining landmark, the Golden Roof. It is considered the city's most famous symbol. Completed in 1500, the roof was decorated with 2,657 fire-gilded copper tiles for Emperor Maximilian I to mark his wedding to Bianca Maria Sforza. Later walk down cobblestone pathways of Maria Theresien Stresses and live through the medieval European culture. A delight to explore, the neighbourhood is a collection of cobblestone streets, boutiques, medieval buildings, and sidewalk cafes.
Later the group will take the Hungerburgbahn Funicular: The Hungerburgbahn is a funicular that takes visitors from the city centre of Innsbruck up to the Hungerburg Mountain which is known for its stunning views of the city and the surrounding mountains. After exploring the Hungerburg Mountain, return to Innsbruck via the funicular and enjoy rest of your day in the city.
In the evening we will proceed to Wattens to discover the home of Swarovski: where you will visit the Swarovski Crystal World - one of the most visited attractions in Austria. The Swarovski Crystal World in Wattens, Tyrol, weaves a spell around every visitor: a water-spouting giant that magically lures the beholder into a hidden world, where Chambers of Wonder fire up the imagination. His face has become a globally-recognized icon and the attraction has seen more than 12 million visitors pass through its doors. During the visit you explore 16 Chambers of Wonder to see works of many artists, designers, and architects who interpreted crystals in their own unique ways and experience the magic of crystal in a dimension that has never been seen before. A great opportunity to buy a souvenir for your family.
