What To Expect

Departing from the central Vienna, the morning, afternoon, and evening tours have varying routes, but each takes you on a relaxed adventure through the most stunning parts of the city. Soak up an intimate experience as your guide explains the rich history behind the stunning landmarks you pass. See the Itinerary for more details on each departure time.

Morning and Afternoon Tour Set out on your guided bike tour from central Vienna and admire the world-famous Vienna State Opera house and explore within the Ringstraße Boulevard with its impressive historical and government buildings including the Austrian Parliament Building (Parliament) and Rathaus (New City Hall). See the grandeur of Hofburg Palace and bike through its grand public square, the Heldenplatz. Follow your guide past the elegant Burgtheater and ornate St Stephen's Cathedral, the seat of the Archbishop of Vienna. View the Albertina, a palatial art museum Cross the bustling Karlsplatz and see magnificent St Charles' Church (Karlskirche), visit the colorful Hundertwasserhaus building, and bike through the Wiener Prater with its monumental ferris wheel. After riding across the beautiful blue Danube River, pass the architecturally significant Austrian Postal Savings Bank (Postsparkasse) and sprawling Stadtpark with its famous statue of Johann Strauss II before finishing your 6-mile (10-km) bike ride. Evening Tour This tour is more about enjoying Vienna's atmosphere rather than ticking attractions off your list. Start your guided bike ride in central Vienna and travel through the streets at a leisurely pace. As the sunset casts a gentle glow on grand old buildings, imagine how Vienna looked more than a century ago when the Habsburgs rode through the city on evening carriage rides. Continue your ride, admiring majestic Viennese monuments illuminated against the twilight sky. Conclude your 6-mile (10-km) bike tour back in central Vienna.

Great tour of the inner city plus parts we would not have seen otherwise. Markus was very knowledgeable and a great guide. Bikes were in good order and helmets provided. Suitable for minimum levels of fitness as you stop frequently to discuss the sights you’re in front of. Loved it.

Excellent way to tour Vienna

Daniella_B, Mar 2024

Response from Host, Apr 2024

We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review.

Best alternative view of Vienna

Gregory_H, Mar 2024

Great way to get introduced to Vienna and see many things without walking everywhere. Marco was so knowledgeable and funny and covered so many topics. We didn't go to all the main traditional Viennese sites as this tour is more about the social aspects than the monument's and attractions. I highly recommend this tour. Marco goes above and beyond. They even supplied gloves as it was so cold.

Response from Host, Apr 2024

Thank you for such a great review, we are excited that you liked our tour.

Fantastic activity, highly recommend

Eimer_M, Sep 2023

Marco was a brilliant guide, so enthusiastic and animated while delivering a tonne of interesting info about the city. This was such a great way to get to grips with Vienna, and the bikes were perfect, it’s a very flat and easily cycleable city. Could not recommend highly enough.

Could have been better

Didn’t really feel that we experienced Vienna on this bike tour. Last half hour consisted of riding around a park and a football stadium and guide was a bit grumpy,
