No jodhpurs are required for this guided tour of the Spanish Riding School - just an appreciation of all things historical and horsey in Vienna. Join your equestrian expert guide and explore the Winter Riding School, the Summer Riding School, and the stables.

Saddle up for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Spanish Riding School, a historic institution in Vienna that makes a fascinating detour from the usual sites and galleries.

You'll be led around the Baroque Winter Riding School and the Summer Riding School with a guide, where the school's impressive history will come to life - it was founded way back in 1735.

Witness the grand architecture of this place and gain a better understanding of dressage and the history of the Spanish Riding school.

Step into the stables at the Spanish Riding School - home to the magnificent Lipizzan horses.

This special breed is born to perform the haute école or high school movements of classical dressage which, combined with their stylized jumps, looks a bit like dancing!

A very informative tour behind the scenes of the magical Spanish Riding School. Good rules are in place to respect the welfare of the horses but are relaxed enough you still get an up close experience.

Very good tour. Our guide told us about the requirements to be a rider, how old the horses are, and where the horses live their life in retirement.

It would gave been great to have been in Vienna when they were actually performing rather than just a short visit of the arena, exercise track, tack room, and courtyard.
