Getting around Vienna

One of the best ways of getting around Vienna is by foot. And for cyclists, the paths along the banks of the Danube are a dream.

Vienna also has a modern, efficient, and reasonably priced public transport network (U-Bahan and S- Bahn subway). This is the best way of getting around Vienna when you’re outside the city center.

It’s easy to use thanks to the well-organized digital hub where you can get all the maps, apps, timetables, and tickets hassle-free.

If you’re not in a hurry, then Vienna’s 29 tram lines are a hoot. These trams ply from 5 A.M. to 11:45 P.M. They are the most cost-effective means to go sightseeing.

The bus is the best to travel to the remote parts of town. They are reliable, economical and run from 5 A.M to midnight. You even have the night buses that cover most of the city and run every half-hour till 5 A.M.

Food in Vienna

So, what would a Vienna city guide be without talking about food? There is just so much cool food in Vienna that you need to try. But for the time being, here are a few of our favourite bites.

#1. Sachertorte- This legendary dish was created in 1832 by a 16-year-old apprentice chef Franz Sacher. It is a rich, decadent chocolate torte coated with a layer of apricot jam and covered with a lot more chocolate icing, and this pairs best with whipped cream. Yum Yum!

#2 Strudel- Every Austrian loves their strudel. It's a layered pastry that comes with all things beautiful like fruits, nuts, and some hot custard on the side. You also have the savoury version with vegetables and meat.

#3 Wiener Schnitzel- A thin veal cutlet coated with breadcrumbs pan-fried to perfection and served with a wedge of lime and fresh salad on the side. Trust us when we say that no trip to Vienna is complete without trying a Wiener Schnitzel.

#4 Wiener Würste- At every corner, you will find a stand where you can make a stand on what you want to eat. We’re talking about Vienna’s famous sausage stands that serve sausages of all shapes, sizes, and meat in hot dogs, sandwiches, or simply on the plate, accompanied with mustard and beer.
