  1. Wattens: Swarovski Crystal Worlds Entrance Ticket

  Explore all facets of crystal at Swarovski Crystal Worlds in Wattens, and discover the magic of the crystal at exhibits and attractions such as the gardens of The Giant, and the “Crystal Cloud” of 800,000 hand-mounted crystals. Go to the “Chambers of Wonder” and experience the magic of crystal in a dimension that has never been seen before. Discover unique art installations in the museum's gardens, and take the kids to the play-tower, an innovative outdoor playground landscape for children of all ages, with plenty of space to play and climb. A café and restaurant by the gardens offer amazing views of the surrounding landscape, and provide an unforgettable culinary delight for those interested in exploring unique flavors.

  Booking the ticket with GYG was seamless, and we fully recommend it. There were not many tourists at this time, so ticket windows were free. This is a must-do activity when in Innsbruck. Beautifully laid out display of crystal works from global designers, including Manish Arora from India. The shop also has discounted stuff. Huge parking lot.

  2. Top of Innsbruck: Roundtrip Cable Car Ticket

  Begin your journey 560 meters above sea level, not far from the heart of Innsbruck's old town with its historical buildings and the world-renowned "Goldenes Dachl" (Golden Roof). Planned and designed by star architect Zaha Hadid, the Hungerburg funicular is a unique architectural achievement. Hop aboard your panoramic cable car and begin your upward ascent. As you rise upwards, admire how the elegant modern design of the stations contrasts with the rugged mountain landscape. Continue along Seegrube and Hafelekar and notice how the picture changes: your attention will now be caught by the painstakingly renovated station building, which was designed by the Tyrolese architect Franz Baumann. Savor the peace and beauty of nature as your ascent continues and the bustle of the city gives way to the tranquillity of the mountain. All that remains is a spectacular view of Innsbruck. By day it see...

  It was a great experience! It was my first time in a cable car and my first time in Innsbruck, Austria. I highly recommend the trip to the top of the mountain and look at the amazing views.

  Cute zoo. Small and rather quiet in winter but well done and interesting. 99% signage in German though so we missed some details.
