In I took the plunge and travelled solo to Vienna for the very first time. I needed a break from London and the Austrian capital seemed to be the best choice for my first solo travel adventure. My Vienna travel guide for first time visitors includes a detailed day to day itinerary filled with activities and local things to do alone in Vienna for solo travellers.
Vienna is the city that keeps on giving, no matter how many times you come back to it. The main pull for visitors are: the glamourous imperial past, the UNESCO recognised coffee house culture, Prater and of course its prestigious status as a horse city. Mozart, Freud, Ferstel, Loos, Klimt, Hundertwasser or the Sacher family are all world renowned household names β they all made Vienna the intellectual centre and sophisticated city that it is today.
The post includes my personal suggestions on what you could do and see during your stay in Vienna. I try to provide as much information for your planning as possible including alternatives, so you get the most out of your 4 Day Vienna stay. This Vienna itinerary uses Quartier Belvedere as a base and starting point for your daily explorations.
All prices and costs are correct as of January Stroll casually into town and explore along the way. Whilst you explore, never take your eyes off from the buildings.
Vienna is steeped in history and proud of its imperial past which the buildings reflect. The grounds are neat with impressive white Sphinx statues, fountains and romantic setups. The highlight, however, is the extensive art collection displayed in the Upper Belvedere.
