Tips for Adventure

Visit a Heuriger

Escape the center and head to the neighborhoods of Grinzing or Neustift am Walde for an afternoon in a wine tavern. It is an authentic and relaxing experience.

The Central Cemetery (Zentralfriedhof)

It is not a gloomy visit, but a walk through history and art. Look for the tombs of Beethoven, Strauss, Brahms and Falco, and admire the Art Nouveau architecture.

Formality Matters

It is customary to say hello when entering a small shop ('Grüß Gott') and say goodbye ('Auf Wiedersehen'). The treatment is more formal and less effusive than in southern Europe.

Tips ('Trinkgeld')

Tip is not included. It is customary to round up the bill or add between 5% and 10% if the service has been good. The final amount is told to the waiter when paying.

Alpine Spring Water

The tap water is of exceptional quality, brought directly from the Alps. Refill your bottle at any public tap or fountain.

Pharmacies ('Apotheke')

They are identified with a red 'A'. They are very professional and offer advice for minor ailments. There is a guard system to find one open 24 hours a day.

Relax, it's very safe

Vienna is extremely safe. The usual precautions against theft in heavily touristed areas are sufficient.

Trust Night Transportation

The metro runs 24 hours a day on weekends and on the eve of holidays. Night buses are safe and reliable the rest of the week.
