With the two routes on offer, you could get a good overview of Vienna. Ideal if you can't / don't want to walk that much and want to be accompanied by an audio guide through the city. The headphones are available free of charge on the bus.

The tour is very well done and the stages are interesting but access to the starting point is not clear. When I clicked on the link to the starting point, I was connected to Google maps, but the address was not correct for the bus stop. It wasn't on the right street. And upstream, it didn't say that we couldn't start the tour at any point.

The audio-guided tour was really interesting and the bus drivers were friendly and drove carefully... We also really enjoyed the walking tour through the city center with Lukas Forster. He guided us through the city center for almost two hours and it was very entertaining, interesting and funny. He was very personable. All in all, a great experience. We would book the Hop-On Hop-Off bus again and again. Thank you!

We liked the audio guide and the accompanying music. Unfortunately, it was very warm and we would have appreciated air conditioning. The bus heated up very quickly through the plexiglass window. But Vienna is a wonderful city and we really enjoyed it. It was not the last time we were here.

Very good audio guide 1st bus: jolts that make you sick( blue line) Long waits at stops. I prefer the red line. 2h: too long Having taken a 2-day pass, we only used it for one day, as it was better to do EVERYTHING on foot. Too many similarities between the 2 lines...for the center.

We did the blue tour first. Unfortunately we were unlucky with the weather, it was raining so the windows in the upper part were very steamed up on the inside and wet on the outside and we couldn't see very well. The audio guide was not at the same time as the sights, i.e. we were already past when the sights were described. We had expected more information, it was very dry. On the red tour the seats upstairs were mostly wet. The heating was very warm.

I found this "conversation" between the fictional characters ("And what do you think, Jana...?") rather suboptimal. I would have preferred a pure, clear statement of fact ("On the left you can see the opera house, built by X in year Y..."). And WITHOUT music!

The instructions to get the physical tickets were not clear, we lost time figuring out how to do it. Once the tickets were obtained on the bus, the customer service for the boat was very bad, we were running out of time and the lady at the counter decided not to let us pass for the long tour even though they were waiting for us to board, due to the loss of time we could not complete the bus tour for an hour and we were not able to board the boat. We were waiting to board, because of the loss of time we could not complete the bus tour because of the time and we got off at a stop and they told us that we could not continue the next day, so it was not for 24 hours!!!! Fiera of that all very nice

I loved how knowledgeable the tour guide was. The only thing that needs improvement is managing the crowd on the bus. There were passengers that were drinking and also conversing pretty loudly, which made it difficult to hear the tour guide at times.

Ticket guy was super helpful and he helped me when I discovered that I had booked the Budapest tour instead of the Vienna one. But the problem was that during the tour I couldn't hear the live tour lady well, and my audio didn't work so I couldn't hear anything actually.. no description. Overall, it was ok but it could have been better.

So a night-time bus tour in an unheated bus at almost 0° with steamed-up windows in the dark makes no sense. :-;

No view of the beautiful city! It would be great if the windows were transparent when it rains. You can achieve this with RainX or something similar. Good visibility is important on a city tour!

Although the tickets in the app said they could be used directly at the Belvedere Palace, at the entrance the tickets were not recognized. The digital tickets (available on the App) clearly said that it was not necessary to exchange them for physical tickets, as the digital tickets were accepted. After 30 minutes of phone calls to various locations by Belvedere Palace staff and receiving proof that we had paid for the tickets, we were allowed to visit the Palace.

I was denied entry at the Schonbrunn Palace - they said they were sold out of tickets and could not redeem my voucher. I contacted support and asked for a prorated refund for the amount associated with the Schonbrunn Palace tour and even had a Schonbrunn Palace representative speak with Headout support to confirm the denial of my entry. Headout said they needed written confirmation from the venue that my entry was indeed denied.

A magnificent, must-see place in Vienna! There are priceless works to be seen. For the wire-cut tickets, it was indicated that they had to be exchanged. In the end, exchange was not necessary. It's important to keep to the timetable. We booked for 10:30 and couldn't get in before then. Nice experience.

Tickets via headout was easy and qr codes worked perfectly. Upper Belvedere is excellent and park is nice ( suspect it's stunning in summer) however I wouldn't pay to go in lower Belvedere- it's not as good and not different enough from the better Upper version

We really enjoyed it 👍 my son was impressed from the animals and the acquarios inside 😍 the park was wonderful and everything was well maintained and organised . Many shoppers and restorants were inside the zoo where we can rest or enjoy food and drinks with your kid. My experience was really memorable. The toilets requires more attention and cleaning.

The park is beautiful and very well maintained. The paths are wide and the circular route is very well designed with footpaths so that we couldn't miss anything. The animal enclosures are also larger than those at Cologne Zoo and lovingly designed to suit the species.

With the two routes on offer, you could get a good overview of Vienna. Ideal if you can't / don't want to walk that much and want to be accompanied by an audio guide through the city. The headphones are available free of charge on the bus.

The tour is very well done and the stages are interesting but access to the starting point is not clear. When I clicked on the link to the starting point, I was connected to Google maps, but the address was not correct for the bus stop. It wasn't on the right street. And upstream, it didn't say that we couldn't start the tour at any point.

The audio-guided tour was really interesting and the bus drivers were friendly and drove carefully... We also really enjoyed the walking tour through the city center with Lukas Forster. He guided us through the city center for almost two hours and it was very entertaining, interesting and funny. He was very personable. All in all, a great experience. We would book the Hop-On Hop-Off bus again and again. Thank you!

I am very impressed by the way in which each animal has been given thought to both its natural habitat and the other animals it can coexist with. The animals are in their most natural environment possible and at the same time very close to the visitors.I am very impressed with the pandas and koalas. This is the best zoo I have ever been to. If I visit Vienna again, I will definitely come back again.

We did the blue tour first. Unfortunately we were unlucky with the weather, it was raining so the windows in the upper part were very steamed up on the inside and wet on the outside and we couldn't see very well. The audio guide was not at the same time as the sights, i.e. we were already past when the sights were described. We had expected more information, it was very dry. On the red tour the seats upstairs were mostly wet. The heating was very warm.
