Schönbrunn Escape Game

I 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.

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

Honestly 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.

A 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.

The Imperial Crypt riddle gave me a headache. But I had a lot of fun. I can only recommend it.

Now those were creative puzzles — and a few of them genuinely had us stuck! Highly recommended for puzzle fans.

Escape game FAQ

Before you set off

How long does the escape game really take?
Around 2.5 hours, depending on group size, breaks and pace. You can pause whenever you like.
Do I need any background knowledge?
No — the puzzles are built so every clue can be found right on the spot.
Is the escape game wheelchair-accessible?
Mostly yes — every stop can be reached. Two things to bear in mind: the park paths are almost entirely gravel, and the climb up to the Gloriette is fairly steep. Wheelchair and stroller users should check the route in advance.
What are the palace park opening hours?
Opening hours vary by season (entry from 6:30 am):
Jan / Feb
until 5:30 pm
Mar
until 7:00 pm
Apr
until 8:00 pm
May – Jul
until 9:00 pm
Aug / Sep
until 8:00 pm
Oct
until 7:00 pm
Nov / Dec
until 5:30 pm
What if I get stuck on a puzzle?
Every puzzle comes with two hints. And if you’re still stumped, the solution is always one tap away — nobody gets left behind.
What do I do if the weather’s bad or I don’t finish?
Caught in a downpour? Just pick up where you left off another day.
Can I pause the escape game 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.
