Vienna Top Tips
Explore in totality
This place has a holistic vibe, right from the Baroque streetscapes and imperial palaces to basking in the nature at Vienna woods to soak the hustle bustle of the main city.
8th – 10th April | Vienna:-
Be smart and capture– A must visit to beautiful and never ending Hofburg palace, with approx. 1400 rooms where only some of the rooms are accessible to the visitors. You will be tuned to their history through a pair of headphones and clicking pictures is strictly prohibited. Be smart enough to dodge the security guard at every nook and corner.

Tiergarten Schonbrunn– If you are interested in giant pandas, penguins, koala bears or taking a walk through Amazon rain forest, this place is a must. Please check the evening closing timing so that you don’t miss out on tracing the huge zoological park.

Vienna Woods– A place so magical and offbeat that I could hardly see 1 or 2 people on sight of 2 km nearby. Could hear exactly how trees blushed under the womb of mother nature, how the clouds hid underneath the umbrella of the sky and how berries born on bushes fell and went rolling along the fields. While enjoying this, don’t miss out on trying the Cobenzl wine around.
Bratislava– Take a flexibus and enjoy a day trip from Vienna i.e. approx. 80km and you will be greeted with castles, cathedral and old town vibes. Take a toy train pass which will take you around the old town through narrow lanes and engaging you through information on the structures and culture.
