6.Vienna Classical Concert – Strauss in Historic 1837 Hall

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 1 to 2 hours (approx.) · from $78Top rated

Spend an evening at Vienna’s House of Strauss with museum admission, a concert in the historic Strauss Hall, a full orchestra, and an opera soloist. Plan around the later 8:30 p.m. performance, since the museum visit comes first and published start times have caused confusion.

“The low score is all on Viator. The information about the concert provided by Viator was limited and incomplete... The concert time on Web site and the ticket was 7:00 when it started at 8:30... I wasted my time and parking cost. This is my 3rd event and never had such limited event information”
