Belvedere Palace, Klimt's The Kiss Guided Tour

Vienna 2 hours Small group4.8(8,700 reviews)

The Belvedere palace complex houses Austria's greatest art collection, and Gustav Klimt's The Kiss, two figures wrapped in golden robes at a cliff edge, is its centrepiece.

An expert guide contextualises Klimt within Vienna's extraordinary Secession art movement.
