Schonbrunner Schloss Park

I suggest checking the weather before you go. I got caught in a surprise rain shower, and while it was refreshing, I wish I’d brought an umbrella!

i recommend bringing your own water and snacks. the cafes are kinda pricey, so you can save some cash and enjoy a picnic in one of the beautiful spots!

Don’t miss the gardens, but I think it's best to visit in spring or early summer when everything is in bloom. It's just so much prettier!
My advice is to grab a map at the entrance. The park is like a small maze and it really helps to know where you’re going instead of wandering aimlessly!
Vienna City Park
Volksgarten
Check out the little cafe inside the park for a quick coffee or snack. It’s way cheaper than nearby tourist spots, and the outdoor seating is great for people-watching!

I suggest grabbing a map when you enter. The park is bigger than it looks, and you don’t want to miss hidden gems like the Theseus Temple.

If you're a fan of classical music, try to visit on a weekend when they sometimes hold free concerts. It adds a magical touch to your visit!

If you're there in the warmer months, make sure to catch the rose garden in full bloom! The vibrant colors are worth the visit. I didn't expect to stay for hours just soaking in the beauty!
Burggarten

Bring a picnic! There are lovely spots on the grass where you can chill and enjoy some snacks. It saves money and gives you a nice break.

If you're planning to sit and relax, find a bench near the butterfly house. It’s a peaceful spot, plus watching the butterflies is really calming.

My advice is to explore the paths that lead away from the main areas; you'll find some hidden gems and a lot fewer tourists which makes for a nice escape.

I think taking a stroll around lunchtime is a good idea. You can enjoy some food from nearby vendors and watch the locals go by. It's a great way to soak up the atmosphere!
Danube Park
If you're planning to rent a bike, I suggest looking for rental kiosks near the water. I ended up walking a lot because the ones near the entrance were out of service when I visited.

My advice is to check out the Danube Tower around sunset. The views are breathtaking and you can catch the skyline lit up. Just avoid it during peak hours if you're not a fan of crowds.

i think it's a good idea to wear comfy shoes. the park is huge and there are lots of trails to explore, and my feet were not thanking me after a long day in fancy ones!
