— ChristianI usually only come to Schönbrunn for the Christmas market, so this was a great way to see more of the palace gardens. Some of the riddles were pretty hard, but the hints are a nice help.
Audio GuideRingstraße
The Ringstrasse ushered in one of the most productive building eras in Vienna’s history. Here you’ll discover how the monumental palaces along the boulevard came to be — and the stories they hide: how Emperor Franz Joseph may have had a hand in an opera architect’s death, why statues of eight of Vienna’s most important figures were mocked by locals as ‘chimney sweeps’, and how the birth of the First Republic was overshadowed by an accidental gunshot.

— MartinaA pleasant way to explore Vienna, with interesting details. My daughter lives here, and even she learned a lot she didn’t know before.

— KatharinaHonestly brilliant. It’s like a podcast — but for sightseeing. You listen while you’re actually looking at the place. We’ve already booked the Schönbrunn tour for tomorrow. The only thing to fault is that there are only two tours so far.

— MonikaA fun and informative walk along the Ring. Also for people who already know Vienna. The pictures in the info sections are great for imagining what it really was like back then.

Audio guide FAQ
Before you set off
How long does the walk really take?
About 45 minutes of audio in total. With a relaxed stroll along the boulevard, breaks and a few photo stops, expect to be out for 1.5–2.5 hours — entirely at your own pace.
Can I walk the route in either direction?
Yes — in the audio guide, you can swap start and end with a single tap right in the stop list.
What do I do if the weather’s bad or I don’t finish?
A coffee-house break is practically part of the Vienna experience. And if the rain really won’t let up, you can pick up where you left off another day.
Can I pause the audio guide and continue later?
Yes — once you start, you’ve got 7 days of access from the same device.
Do I pay per person or as a group?
Both: for 1–3 people you pay per person and get one code each. From 4 people the group price is the better deal — one code for up to 6 people who join via QR code. For bigger groups (school classes, company outings, family parties), get in touch — we’ll sort something out.
