Anyone been to Vienna?

I think I wandered around there a bit 40 years ago. Can't remember a thing about it. Hope this helps.

Cheers Xog, you could get a job in the MOD.

I once got told by a German Turk not to go to Vienna at New Years because the Italians decend on mass, go wild and spend the whole time setting firecrackers off.

I've spent new years twice now in St Marcs square, Italians party with style and risk with minimum control... none of your health and safety nonsense. Firecrackers let off in one hand a glass of champers in the other...

Right I can achieve the same rate in the UK as I can in Vienna, what do you go for?

Food is cheaper as is eating out however decent accommodation is not far off different.

What to do...

I went to Vienna a few weeks back. The main trip was to Bratislava(Slovakia) with Ryanair which cost 42 quid return from Stanstead. Both cities are well worth a visit with loads of historic architecture and Vienna is only about 50km from Bratislava for only approx 7.5 Euros return by train. There is also a ship that runs down the Danube between the two cities which takes about 2 hours.

I'm going to Bratislava next week for the w/end.

Any tips on what to see.

Quite like the idea of a day trip to Vienna as well - will I be able to visit with just my UK passport?

I know you guys came last in the Eurovision song contest, but honestly, you're not that hated.
