Vienna is one of the most popular pre-Christmas destinations from Brno, and it's easy to see why — less than two hours on the road and you find yourself in one of Europe's most beautiful Advent cities. The market at Rathausplatz glittering with thousands of lights, the smell of mulled wine and punch around Stephansplatz, or the fairy-tale backdrop of Schönbrunn Palace all create an atmosphere you'll fall for instantly.
Because a day trip itinerary tends to be packed, travelling by private car with a driver makes far more sense than a group bus tour. You leave at a time that suits you, drive straight there without unnecessary stops, and once in Vienna you decide yourself where to go and how long to linger at each market.
Your driver picks you up in Brno at the agreed time, drops you off in the centre of Vienna, and waits throughout your visit for the return journey. This is not a guided tour — you explore Vienna independently, at your own pace, while the driver simply takes care of a comfortable and safe journey there and back.
Christmas markets worth visiting
Rathausplatz (Vienna City Hall square)
Vienna's largest and most famous Christmas market, set against the beautifully illuminated City Hall, with a carousel and hundreds of stalls selling gifts and food.
Schönbrunn Palace
A market framed by the stunning baroque palace, offering a calmer atmosphere, handmade crafts and views over the illuminated palace gardens.
Stephansplatz
A smaller market right beneath St. Stephen's Cathedral, perfect for a short stop with a cup of mulled wine in the heart of the city centre.
Spittelberg and the city centre
The charming lanes of the Spittelberg district with cosy stalls and design gifts complement further markets scattered across Vienna's historic centre.
