In the end, it was nice to have unlimited access to public transportation. We didn't take the hop-on, hop-off bus tour. Partly because we thought it was expensive despite the discount, and partly because we didn't really need it. We did find the discounts on other attractions with the Vienna Card to be rather meager.

The Welcome Card does exactly what it's supposed to do. It gives you access to all public transportation. We didn't use any of the other add-on options because we didn't need them.

Purchasing the Vienna Welcome Pass with the Hop on Hop Off option was a good decision for us, having the pass made it easy for us to just hop onto any mode of public transportation without worrying about purchasing a ticket first. The pass also offers discounts to attractions around Vienna if one chooses to go to any of them. The only drawback was that the Hop on Hop Off bus lines and stops were not easy to find, I wish we had a map of the lines and the stops. We hopped on the bus after touring Schonburg Palace and hopped off at Belevedere Palace 21 walked down to the lower palace and couldn't find the hop on hop off bus again so we ended up taking public transportation instead.

The Vienna Welcome card was a great way for us to avoid traffic, see more of the amazing sights Vienna has to offer. We bought 3 passes and probably used them for over 25 different trips across the trains, buses, trams and trolleys. We saw the SiSi museum, the ferris wheel and Schönnbrun Palace and gardens. We even got to walk around the city like the locals shopping in Flohmarkts and eating yummy doner kebabs. It was stress free travel, never having to worry about traffic, parking or tickets. Definitely pays for itself, and provided discounts along the way. Highly recommend for anyway spending a few days in this beautiful city.

Exploring the city with my eyes wide open—the ViennaCard makes it possible. I traveled through the city from east to west, from north to south. I enjoyed the view out the window just as much as the expressions on the faces of my fellow passengers. This allowed me to gather wonderful impressions on foot and by bus and train and enjoy them stress-free. I particularly liked the clear signage system of the Vienna subway, which helped me find my way around.

The 3-day ViennaPass was just great for our stay! We were able to see everything and really made the most of it. We also really enjoyed the hop-on-hop-off buses, especially the commentary on Vienna’s sights! I’ll recommend it to anyone planning a trip to Vienna! The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff on site also deserve special mention!

We were very satisfied with Vienna Ticket itself, however, we had problems setting up and retrieving the tickets and needed support.
