Experience a ride on the famous Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel, a landmark of the Austrian capital and a symbol for the world-famous Wiener Prater. With its iconic silhouette, the Giant Ferris Wheel is a must-see attraction for all visitors to Vienna. A ride on the Wheel is just as important to a visit to Vienna as the Schönbrunn Palace, St. Stephen's Cathedral, or the Spanish Riding School. A ride on this significant and fascinating structure provides spectacular views over the whole city. The Giant Ferris Wheel is a true cultural and architectural highlight for any guest in the city: you haven't really visited Vienna until you've taken a ride on the Giant Ferris Wheel and marveled at the breathtaking views over the roofs of Vienna! The Vienna Giant Ferris Wheel rotates at a speed of 2.7 kilometers per hour. A complete rotation takes just over 4 minutes, but only when the Ferris wheel has not stopped to let passengers on or off. More commonly, a ride takes between 12 and 15 minutes, during which time you can enjoy picturesque views over Vienna and the surrounding area, such as the hills of the Vienna Woods, the Danube, the Marchfeld, and the Pannonian Basin.

Experience the glamour and elegance of Austria's capital city and the world of celebrities at Madame Tussauds Vienna. With a combination of historical artistic methods, 12 interactive areas, and groundbreaking technology, over 80 Austrian and international stars and starlets are brought to life. Whether it's a private tea time with Queen Elisabeth II, a wild Hollywood party with Sandra Bullock and Leonardo DiCaprio, or a kiss from Volks Rock 'n' Roller's Andreas Gabalier, the world of celebrities has never been so close. The themed areas offer interactive experiences for visitors of all ages: newly in love can confess their love in front of Elvis and Marilyn Monroe inside the romantic wedding chapel and fans of the "Bergdoktor" can be chauffeured by Hans Sigl into the picturesque nature of the mountains. Falco and Mozart give "Rock me Amadeus" a completely new meaning and in the educational World War II section. Along with the themed areas, check out the museum's highlight, a 5D experience in honor of Empress Sisi. The latest vision technology, actors, and extensive research allow unique insights into the life of Empress Elisabeth of Austria in the “Sisi Uncovered Experience” attraction. Smells, music, noises, spoken words, tastes, and haptic impressions are combined interactively.
