The view over the city of Vienna. Friendly, good-humored staff at the entrance and during the "photo shoot". One (1) ride on the Giant Ferris Wheel is unfortunately a little short for the ticket price 🙃. Nevertheless, we enjoyed it very much.
These tickets are valid until 3 Mar, 2027.
Enjoy a ride on the historic Giant Ferris Wheel of the Austrian capital and a symbol of the world-famous Wiener Prater. A must-see attraction in the city, it allows you to soak up breathtaking views of the entire city and its most popular landmarks. The ride lasts 10 to 20 minutes during which you’ll experience spectacular views of the Vienna Woods hills, the picturesque River Danube, the Marchfeld, and the Pannonian Basin. You can even explore the restaurant, Fotoshop, and Souveniershop on your own.
The Giant Ferris Wheel offers more than a traditional Ferris wheel cart ride. The newly constructed The Wheel of Time – shown through the ‘Panorama’ installation – revives much-loved Prater traditions with artistic and technical audio-visual elements in eight cabins. Taking on two thousand years of the city’s history and stories about the Prater, discover the city in an extremely unique manner – high above the ground (64.75-meters to be exact) on this quintessential Ferris Wheel.
