The app's system made the whole process run smoothly. I liked all the paintings, but especially The Kiss.

The bus route was good for showing you around the area although sometimes the earphone socket did not work so you missed some of the commentary. My main complaint is that when you used the free drink ticket at St Stephens platz Christmas market you paid a deposit on the mug but they refused too give you a refund when you took the mugs back so in effect you are paying for your drink

It has been a beautiful experience. A selection of works by different painters, exceptional. The setting, incomparable. Very well cared for. I did not like having to pay 5 euros for the audio guide, but it is worth it.

If you come to Vienna you cannot miss a visit to Blevedere, I recommend buying tickets online, simple, safe and you avoid the queues.

Experience Vienna in style with this great-value combo! Skip the line to admire Klimt’s famous paintings at Upper Belvedere Palace, then hop on a bus tour and discover Vienna’s iconic landmarks at your own pace.

Upper Belvedere Palace

Step into the world of Austrian art at the Upper Belvedere Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its stunning Baroque architecture and expansive art collections. The Palace is very close to stop #8 on Blue Route, accessible by a hop-on hop-off bus tour. Inside the Palace, you'll be greeted by grand marble halls, gilded stucco ceilings, and sweeping staircases. Klimt’s golden “The Kiss” shimmers in the opulent galleries, where rich reds and velvety blues adorn the walls. The palace's vast windows bathe the artwork in soft light, revealing masterpieces by Van Gogh, Monet, and Rodin. Outside the Palace, you'll find yourself in beautifully landscaped Baroque gardens, featuring perfectly manicured lawns, cascading fountains, and ornate statues. As you stroll, the grand reflecting ponds mirror the palace’s elegant façade, while the gentle hillside location offers panoramic views of the city.
