Tour description
Nestled in a broad valley beneath towering Alpine peaks, Innsbruck is the capital of Tyrol and one of the most spectacularly situated cities in Europe. Once a favored seat of the Habsburg emperors, its compact Old Town is filled with vibrant facades, vaulted arcades, and imperial monuments. On this walking tour, a local guide will share the city's rich history and mountain spirit.
You will admire the famous Golden Roof, stroll beneath medieval arcades, and hear stories of the emperors, miners, and mountaineers who helped shape the city. With snow-capped peaks rising at the end of every street, Innsbruck offers a one-of-a-kind stroll through the heart of the Alps.
