Overall the pass was a wonderful option allowing us to decide what to see and when. The staff was wonderful and very helpful and provided some ideas on getting around which attractions were close to each other. The only thing I would say is make sure on day of arrival get there early to get your pass. We got there the day before but about an hour after 12 so we could not get our passes.

Unbelievable. Unexpected. The one of the best museums I’ve ever visited. You can spend there the whole day and worth visiting it if you’re in Vienna.

We were able to visit lots of historic bluidings, museums and palaces very easily which gained us a lot of time and it was very worth!

The ticket will be printed at the first museum visited, valid for both. It worth it, very elegant and opulent museums.

Worth the ticket, what a beautiful museum with amazing works of art!
