Vienna airport transfers

Vienna lies in the country’s eastern side on the Danube River. Its artistic and intellectual legacy was shaped by residents including Mozart, Beethoven and Sigmund Freud. In the Museumsquartier historic and contemporary buildings display works by Egon Schiele, Gustav Klimt and other artists.

The Schönbrunn Palace is undoubtably Vienna’s most famous building. A Baroque palace with over 1400 rooms and exquisit gardens, this palace was a residence of the Habsburg monarchs until the last emperor’s death in 1916. The palace is Austria’s most popular tourist attraction with over 2.5 million visitors a year coming to admire the luxourious rooms, fountains and gardens.

The historic centre of Vienna offers many sights for tourists and fans of high culture, such as St. Stephen’s Cathedral, the Musuemquartier, the Spanish Riding School and the Baroque catedral, Karlskirche. Make sure to try the local Viennese cuisine – Sachertorte, local beer and of course the famous pork schnitzel.

Vienna is also the perfect starting point to visit other cities in central Europe; Bratislava is a short distance across the Slovakian border and Budapest or Prague only a few hours away.
