We will transport you comfortably from Bratislava to Vienna by coach. Our coaches run 25 times a day and you have the option to buy a combined ticket for the coach and also for public transport within Vienna that will take you directly to the entrance to Prater.

After your arrival in Vienna, take the U1 and U2 underground lines or the S1 rapid transit line (the U1 and S1 lines run to the Praterstern stop and the U2 line stops at Messe-Prater). From Erdberg, where our Slovak Lines coaches also stop, take the U3 underground line to Prater; the journey is a bit longer though.

A single ticket for public transport within Vienna costs €2.20 (children up to 15 can travel for half the price) but if you also want to see some more monuments or attractions in addition to Prater, you should better buy a 24-hour ticket for €7.60

However, after your entry, you will be able to choose from more than 250 attractions for which you will pay from €1.50 to €10.00 for each. You can also buy a special Pratercard to which you can send money and make contactless payments for the attractions, in the stands and restaurants. You can check your balance on the card online at any time.

The most famous Wiener Riesenrad


At 65 metres, the famous Ferris wheel Riesenrad is the dominant of the whole park and allows the visitors to enjoy the beautiful view of Vienna. It was erected in 1897 to mark the golden anniversary of Emperor Franz Joseph's accession to the throne and there are several stories associated with it. One of them talks of Madam Solange d´Atalide. In 1914, the famous artist made a sensational film stunt during which she managed to complete one round on horseback on top of one of the cabins.

During World War II Riesenrad burnt but it was built again a year later. Today, you can enjoy a romantic candle light dinner in one of its 15 cabins. The price of a regular ticket for adults is €10 and for children up to 14 €4.50.

Amusement park with a rich history

The history of Prater reaches back to 1766 but the amusement nature has been attributed to this place since 1895. In the past, the park site was used as a hunting region for aristocracy until Emperor Joseph II donated it to the public as a relaxing park and allowed building of food stands and restaurants in it. At the end of the 19th century Prater was a place of secret meetings of lovers and many orchestra concerts and puppet theatres for children were organised there.
