They say, if you haven't taken a ride on the Giant Ferris Wheel, you haven't really been to Vienna. Just enter the cabin, relax and enjoy the bird's-eye views on Vienna's charming roofs and beautiful sights, such as Schönbrunn Palace and St. Stephen's Cathedral.

The Wiener Riesenrad has been turning above Vienna for more than a century, making it one of the oldest operating ferris wheels in the world. For Vienna, it is more than just an amusement park ride: it is a historic landmark and an unmistakable symbol of the city. A spin on this 213-foot high attraction is a must for every visitor to the capital of Austria!

This experience will definitely become a highlight of your visit to Austria's capital. Take a ride!

Leider zu viel Kommerz und zu wenig Authentisch,die Mitarbeitenden nicht sehr hilfsbereit.Das angeschlossene Café hat sehr gute Kaiserschmarren,dort stimmt das Preis/Leistungsverhältnis

Ho fatto la prenotazione in periodo di vacanza e ho dovuto chiedere il favore ad altri per stampare il voucher. Per tutte le altre attrazioni, prenotate altrove, è stato sufficiente il QR code scaricato sul cellulare.

Wahnsinnig. Jedoch zu lange Wartezeit wegen Schlangen überall und etwa Geschichte mit Audioguide wären super.
