  • Margaret Darrah   (United States) 5.0
    Great deal for the money!

    I bought two 72-hour Vienna Passes on line many months in advance and it was a reasonable price. We cruised around Vienna and hopped on and off for three days using the Yellow and Red lines. Very informative audio program, friendly staff, comfortable buses with free Wi Fi. It's a great way to appreciate Vienna and to get oriented with the city layout. We recommend this product!
