Schönbrunn Palace was great. However, the zoo does not live up to its reputation. It is considered one of the leading zoos, but does not meet expectations.

It was impressive what the guide knew. You could tell that history was his thing. It wasn't memorized history, he knows the history of the castle very well. Everything was great, we would book again.

We enjoyed the tour very much. I would recommend anyone visiting Vienna to take this tour and experience the history of Austria.
Anne Marie told wonderful stories in every room of the tour. She was very easy to understand. And she made a lovely Viennese host and Shonbrunn guide. Thank you!
The tour was good, but it was very crowded so the headset frequently interfered. The guide did a great job and was very enthusiastic.
We enjoyed the guided tour of the palace and appreciated our guide's insights and stories. She was very soft spoken though but once we had the headset, it was much better. Walking through the gardens was very nice and seeing the Schönbrunn fountain was also special.
Our guild was given an excellent tour thanks to his knowledge and fascinating presentation. Thank you very much!

Guide was knowledgeable and very good at getting us through crowds. Don't take back packs or umbrellas you have to check them in and there isn't enough time to do that.
The palace was lovely but very crowded. Our guide did a great job of navigating the crowds and kept us moving. But we weren't able to see as much of the interior as I expected.
Our guide Alexander was great. His knowledge of the castle and Vienna is impressive. His love for the city is palpable. The palace and gardens are a dream.

The palace and also the gardens is beautiful, Alexandra the guide was awesome very enthuziastic and it was a pleasure to listen her. The only remark is that there can be visitied only 5 rooms which is not enough, the tour in the Palace is only 1.5 hour. My expectation was to stay 4-5 hours in the Palace.
A very committed, motivated, humorous and knowledgeable guide. The tour was entertaining and informative. Super. The organization was also perfect, meeting at the agreed meeting point and dividing up the groups worked perfectly. Any time again

Ticketing experience was easy and great. Tour guide, Kundi was awesome! Her knowledge is incredible and her sense of humor makes it even more fun to go on a tour with her. She is very friendly and organized.
The Experience was really good, the guide was also very knowledgeable in answering any questions, doubts or curiosities. Too bad about the bad weather, because you couldn't do the walk outside. But overall I am satisfied :)

First of all, it was really nice to listen to our guide Oliver. I think that's the be-all and end-all of a tour like this. And I also found what was said during the tour very interesting - not too much and not too little. It was right to the point and really included the most important information. Of course, the castle was also extremely remarkable. All in all, we didn't regret booking the tour. Really top 👍🏽

The guide took her time to answer all the questions. She showed a lot of knowledge about the palace, the history and made it very easy to understand.
The day at Schönbrunn Palace was an unforgettable experience. Despite the huge number of people, we were able to enjoy a very informative and amusing tour of the palace with our super friendly guide from Vienna without having to wait too long. I would book this tour again any time. Thank you very much!

The guide. (Can you say that? 😀) Joking aside, the man who gave the tour is a sensation. Friendly, knows everything, presents in such a way that it is always exciting. You have to keep him warm.

I like all animals from Zoo , I like terrariu the most 😌 but now is closed.
The polar bear was awesome. However, I am not sure how happy he is in his relatively small area.
Beautiful zoo. Very clean, with good infrastructure. The animals look very healthy.

Everything was perfect 👌. You can see so much animals , the zoo is very big , you have place to eat something. And you can rent a small go-cart if you are with kids .

The park is beautiful and very well maintained. The paths are wide and the circular route is very well designed with footpaths so that we couldn't miss anything. The animal enclosures are also larger than those at Cologne Zoo and lovingly designed to suit the species.

ZOO as such is great, love the animals and the whole atmosphere. What was really bad was food availability as there was hugr amount of people. Huge rows everywhere and waiting time. With children this is challenge.

Although the tickets in the app said they could be used directly at the Belvedere Palace, at the entrance the tickets were not recognized. The digital tickets (available on the App) clearly said that it was not necessary to exchange them for physical tickets, as the digital tickets were accepted. After 30 minutes of phone calls to various locations by Belvedere Palace staff and receiving proof that we had paid for the tickets, we were allowed to visit the Palace.

Super 😍 cuidado con canjear los billetes al llegar.
I was denied entry at the Schonbrunn Palace - they said they were sold out of tickets and could not redeem my voucher. I contacted support and asked for a prorated refund for the amount associated with the Schonbrunn Palace tour and even had a Schonbrunn Palace representative speak with Headout support to confirm the denial of my entry. Headout said they needed written confirmation from the venue that my entry was indeed denied.
Easy to exchange for the tickets to both palaces.
You can cancel these tickets up to 24 hours before the experience begins and get a full refund.
Excellent evening for a solo traveler!
Beautiful music, beautiful setting. Perfect evening

The music was great! The venue was awesome! The singers were outstanding! There are no photos from the concert since taking pictures or video is not allowed during the performance. We had great time and would definetely go again if in Vienna. Pictures of hall were taken during the antract. In addition, we were in Vienna in late November so the Christmas market at Schonbrunn Palace was a pleasure to the soul. Some pictures attached are from the market. Tips: We book the seats in cathegory A and it was definitely worth it. There was a recomendation on the ticket to arrive 15 min before the performance to avoid the delays. We arrived 45 min before since we were using public transportation and didnt want to be late. It was a great bonus for us. Your ticket comes with category for seating but not the reserved seats. Cathegory A was seats from the row 3 to 7 or 8. Since we were almost the first ones to enter the concert hall, we were able to reserve the seats in row 3 in the center.
We were poorly positioned: poor visibility and not enough sound.

The performance and the music was amazing
It was a good program with breaks. This is my first time for a concert and I'm happy about it.
Headout's offer included admission to Schunbrunn Palace, but in reality we had to pay an extra 128 euros for a visit to the castle for 4 people. Don't be fooled by this misleading offer.

The music was wonderful, the musicians - perfect and the repertoire selected with taste. Both singers were artistic.

Amazing venue! Second part of the concert was especially great. It was a bit hot though and windows could have been open. Seats weren't the most comfortable. Highly recommend though.
The preformers, the music, the ambiance.
It was good. We were seated in category C. I would have liked the music to be a bit louder or more voluminous at the back.

A duo visit to the palace after closing time with a dozen people and an audio guide. The feeling that the palace belongs to us Then a 2x 45-minute Mozart and Strauss concert with musicians who also play with the audience. A must-see
View original review in French
I walked through history. The concert was on highest level.
Visiting the apartments after opening hours means you can spend more time touring without the crowds 👍
View original review in French
Loved everything about the tour...helpful staff, plenty of time to see the exhibits at the palace and the music was what I had hoped for (fan of Strauss).
Duration of visit: You may opt for either a short tour of 40 minutes or choose to spend almost 4 hours inside the Schonbrunn Palace.
Best time to visit: The mild weather from April to May or September to October is the best time to visit the Schonbrunn Palace. Avoid weekends and public holidays to enjoy relatively lesser crowds.
