• Vienna - Your personal driver and guide will collect you in Vienna. The journey heads south, traversing the breathtaking Semmering Pass. Upon entering Styria, known as the “Green Heart of Austria,” the scenery transforms into lush, rolling hills. Relax in your spacious vehicle and prepare for a day filled with visual and culinary pleasures.
• Schlossbergbahn - The adventure begins with a stunning view. Ascend Schlossberg hill (via funicular or elevator) to witness the sea of red rooftops that give Graz an Italian city feel. Visit the iconic Clock Tower (Uhrturm), the emblem of Graz, and wander through the park, soaking in the Mediterranean atmosphere.
• Altstadt von Graz - Descend to the city center for a walking tour characterized by striking contrasts. Begin by delving into history, exploring the UNESCO-protected medieval streets and admiring the splendid Renaissance Landhaus courtyard. Then, step into the future as you encounter the Kunsthaus Graz, affectionately dubbed the “Friendly Alien.” This unusual, blue biomorphic structure floats surrealistically among historic red-roofed buildings, creating a masterpiece of modern architecture. Also, admire the Murinsel, a futuristic floating steel island that links the river Mur’s banks, perfectly symbolizing how Graz bridges its imperial past with its creative present.

Before departing, there is time for lunch. Your guide will suggest a place to try “Backhendl” (famous Styrian fried chicken) or a light meal in a trendy café. (Lunch cost is not included).

• Riegersburg - David Gölles — House of Whiskey, Gin & Rum: Depart the city and drive into the rolling hills of Eastern Styria, often referred to as the “Austrian Tuscany” for its lush vineyards and verdant landscapes. The destination is the esteemed David Gölles Distillery (House of Whiskey, Gin & Rum), situated at the foot of the magnificent Riegersburg Castle.
  This is more than just a shop; it is a production site nestled in nature. Visit the barrel cellar where over 700 casks are aging.

Relax in the elegant lounge or on the terrace with a spectacular view of the castle. Enjoy a curated tasting flight of their premium spirits—from the complex “Ruotker’s” whiskey to the aromatic “Hands On” gin and “Ron Johan” rum. It is a world-class experience in a rustic, authentic setting. (Tasting flight included)

• Vienna - After savoring the spirits and the fresh country air, relax in your comfortable seat. The return drive to Vienna takes you through the picturesque countryside, concluding a day of perfect contrasts: urban design in Graz and artisanal excellence in the “Tuscany” of Austria.

Accompanied by a skilled two-person team, travelers can immerse themselves in the renowned hospitality of the region. A private driver ensures a seamless journey through the lush Styrian mountains, while a guide shares insights into the local culture and history. This tour offers more than just sightseeing; it’s a feast for the senses.
