Public Transport Tickets in Vienna

We thought the card was great. However, I find activation via Gutscheezc rather difficult. At the beginning we only used the QR codes 😬

The lines we used had short timetables, even in the evening. We traveled by subway, suburban train and streetcar (Bim, as they say in Vienna).

We used the 72-hour Vienna City Card for the whole family (children 12+15 free!) and it all worked wonderfully!

It was a bit complicated to install the public transport card. Actually, I should have booked directly via Wiener Verkehrsbetriebe, on whose system I was finally able to upload the 72 ticket. I liked being able to take the Standard out of my pocket at the lamppost in exchange for a payment to the cashier of my choice. I liked the attitude expressed in the interview by the mayor of Vienna about the imminent takeover by the Kickl FPÖ. Vienna, in fact the whole of Austria, must retain its cosmopolitan social climate and freedom of discourse. A radical right-wing government that betrays the idea of European cooperation and integration endangers the well-being of Vienna and Austria and is not worthy of this country. May Vienna maintain its magic.

Before installing the application and using it, I found all the information I needed and very clear. The application is very easy to use and intuitive. It is an extremely useful product for tourists.

Everything was completely unproblematic and pleasant. I was very impressed by the public transport in Vienna with its short cycle times

Vienna is simply a beautiful and highly interesting city. We will probably be back and will buy the Vienna City Card again. It is practical with many good benefits.

We were able to use local public transport for 72 hours without having to buy extra tickets. There were discounts at some museums, which quickly added up.
