Explore the beautiful city of Vienna with travel pro Gene Flynn.
This one-hour presentation looks at the vibrant city of Vienna. After a ten-day, four-country bus tour with the Chicago Master Singers, Gene heads off to Vienna to relax. For 700 years, Vienna was the center of an empire with a rich display of wealth, power and culture. Now it’s the capital of a small country and focuses on good food, good music and a good life. We will look at the royal past and join in today’s fun.
