Arnold Schwarzenegger Museum & Graz Private Tour From Vienna

Welcome to Thal, a picturesque Styrian village and the birthplace of the legend himself! We visit the official Arnold Schwarzenegger Museum, located in his actual childhood home. Walk through the faithfully restored rooms where he grew up. You will see his original teenage training equipment, legendary movie props from The Terminator, and exclusive memorabilia from his unparalleled careers as Mr. Olympia and the Governor of California.

A short drive brings us to Graz, Austria's vibrant second-largest city. We start high above the rooftops! Enjoy a scenic ride on the historic Schlossberg funicular up to the fortress hill. Here, you will discover the iconic Uhrturm (Clock Tower) and stroll through beautiful gardens while taking in breathtaking, sweeping panoramic views of the entire city and the surrounding Alps. (Funicular ticket included).

After getting inspired by Arnold's journey, it's time to taste the flavors of his home region. We will stop at a traditional local restaurant where you can savor authentic Styrian specialties, such as the famous Backhendl (fried chicken) or dishes drizzled with the region's "green gold" — roasted pumpkin seed oil. (Lunch cost not included).

We descend into the heart of the UNESCO-listed Old Town. Join your expert guide for a walking tour through a stunning mix of eras. Admire the Renaissance masterpiece of the Landhaus courtyard, the majestic Graz Cathedral, and the beautifully painted facades of Herrengasse. See the striking contrast of modern landmarks like the futuristic Kunsthaus (the "Friendly Alien") and the Murinsel, an artificial island floating in the river. Enjoy some free time to soak in the relaxed Mediterranean vibe and the city's legendary café culture.
