Hop On Hop Off Vienna Line
Vienna Line buses stop at 14 sights in Vienna. Tickets range from one hour to all day, and you can hop on and off the buses as many times as you wish.

Buses taking in the sights east of the Innere Stadt, such as UNO city and Prater, depart every half-hour between 11am and 6pm, and tours taking in Schönbrunn and Schloss Belvedere run at 10am, 2pm and 4pm (plus 1pm and 3pm in July and August).

DDSG Blue Danube
DDSG Blue Danube’s boats cover a variety of tour routes; some of the most popular include circumnavigating Leopoldstadt and Brigittenau districts using the Danube Canal and the Danube as their thoroughfare. It’s more of a relaxing break than a huge sightseeing tour. Select tours include passing through the Nussdorf locks (built by Otto Wagner around 1900); the company offers tours starting at 1½ hours and longer, including sunset tours.
