Vienna, seductive capital of music

Reserve a plane ticket to Vienna and succumb to its charm from another time. Cultural and artistic capital, Vienna will consistently surprise you with its refined way of life.

After a flight to Vienna, contemplate the stunning panorama from the top of the big ferris wheel in Prater park and admire the extent of the city's allure. You will notice that there is no shortage of green spaces in the Austrian capital. Take a stroll amongst exotic flora and fauna at the Schönbrunn zoo, the oldest animal park in the world or enjoy an excursion to Donauinsel to admire the Danube or rent a pedal boat at Alte Donau, there are many ways to enjoy Vienna's natural settings. A hike to Kahlenberg will also provide you with a breathtaking view over Vienna, as well as the Viennese forest and vines.

Like so many jewels in an imperial crown, magnificent monuments adorn the city and await you on arrival from your flight to Vienna. Schönbrunn castle with its palm tree greenhouse, Hofburg palace, the Rathaus (which looks even more impressive and luxurious when illuminated at night) or the famous Saint-Étienne cathedral are unique sights, as will be explained by your Vienna tourist guide. You will also be recommended a visit to the butterfly house with its exotic atmosphere in the heart of Austria, or the colorful architecture of the buildings designed by the artist Hundertwasser.

With your plane ticket to Vienna, you will be able to enjoy some fine shopping excursions around the Mariahilferstrasse or Graben, luxury districts with many select stores and boutiques. You will also have the opportunity to sample local culinary specialities in the best restaurants of the city. The Tafelspitz beef stew, the Krautfleckerl, a traditional dish made with cheese and cabbage. For desert, difficult not to try the Sachertorte, an excellent chocolat cake.
