Sadly, it has gotten noticably worse after the pandemic. I think they are short-staffed, but frequencies on the U-Bahn and the trams have been reduced significantly. It's quite annoying to wait 10min for a metro or up to 20min for a tram and they are also very full because of that. Another thing I want to point out is that it is not difficult to have the largest transportation Network in Austria. Vienna is by far the biggest city in Austria, it is home to almost one fourth of the population of the country. It's also the only city with a subway (excluding Serfaus which isn't really a subway, more like a people mover). While Viennas transportation network is great, it could (and should) still be improve

Still one of the most beatifull Airports imo

You probably should've used different comparisons. Wien is 7x larger than the next biggest city in Austria. There's nothing surprising about them having the longest public transportation system in the country. You should've compared Vienna to cities like Hamburg of Barcelona.

Wienikistan . i liv here absolutely not livable! expensive and with underpaid jobs . the transportation is always pakt full with aggressive migrants !!!!! all the Austrians have fled away ... im not joking . you pay 700 for health insurance monthly , and when you sick they give you the bill .. i regret coming here !!!!!

I have a year ticket and i paid 1 euro per day ❤ i feel so Lucky 🎉

Its also cheap.

This all sounds like a tourist guide. Opera, Coffee, doubt its something you really need if you want to live there.

Thank God I left from Austria.

So we just got back from our trip - which we had a couple days in Vienna at the beginning and end. I was surprised that the last 3 restaurants we went to - every server showed/asked if we wanted to add a 10% or our choice of tip. I liked this approach as compared to a restaurant sneaking in a 'service fee'. Plus the service we received at all of the restaurants was very good.

Could u please tell me is there government children day care available or not in Vienna?? Where does working women leave their children ? Plz reply & need ur kind suggestions on it…❤

Hi, Are all the public transports stroller friendly and easily accessible with a stroller ?

Fantastic content!

Show us a day trip to bratislava! How to get to the station, buying tickets, what to do/see/eat, things to avoid 😊

always, the taxi scams... research before you get there...

I always will choose cat

i would like to correct you that an oebb tickets cost 2,40€ instead 3,90€

I can't wait to go here.

the housing costs in most districts are not 1200-20%= € 1000,- for a 2 bed appartment, thats definitely not true. Its far cheaper in most districts. you should definitely not sum up your expensive costs from online ordering to normal living costs. if you cook it by yourself, you need less money and you have a better quality in food.

Mentioning bike driving in Vienna, it would be very helpful for tourists to tell them not to walk on designated bike lanes.-)

Uber is cheaper - early morning or in the night 32 euro to the center. The most expensive is 42

Why escape Vienna

Just looked up your recommendation for Gastwirtschaft and it’s permanently closed. 😢

Thank you for sharing your experience and tips, will be visiting Vienna for the first time and your video gave a sigh of relief.

Not the rented rental car

how do we sign up for food tour? Not vegetaria though....

Hi there, thanks for sharing. Can we use this unlimited city card on tram ride also?

One day left in Vienna today! Where is the best Doner 😊 we are schnitzeled out.

good tips! how many days would you recommend for the first timer?

Thank you guys for putting out some amazing content about the city, i would be visiting Vienna in August and can't wait to explore the city. You have truly guided us here. Cheers!!

I just spent 130€ yesterday and 79€ today on grocieries at Interspar. I only filled a big backpack and we are a family of 3. How you got go 250€ a month is beyond me(We spend close to 800-1000€) or maybe you don't buy healthy and just buy w.e is on sale or expiring! But worth pointing out!

Have you tried the Melkerstiftskeller recently? It was one of our favorites when we lived there 2001-2005.

Dukatenbuchteln is overrated, the dough is salty and a bit like old bread

Great video thank you so much! We are traveling to Vienna for the first time in September. Do you have any Italian restaurant recommendations? Thanks again! God bless.❤

♥♥♥♥

An useful tip for using the metro more comfortably at crowded times is: don't just stop right at the entrance of the platform to wait, but keep walking until reaching a less crowded spot and wait there. Often, huge crowds of tourists and "lazy" people want to hop on in one single spot while the rest of the train is almost empty. Also, look for empty spots in the train as it rolls in. With these two "hacks", I almost always find a not so crowded space in the vehicle, even during rush hour.

I am flying to Vienna next months with my son for 5 days and any recommendations on what to do on Sundays ? I will arrive Sunday morning 🙏

Vienna sucks

Hi! Can't you do online orders and delivery from supermarkets?

Do we have to tip 10% or even at all for just a coffee ? I do not always think it’s necessary to tip for a cup of coffee but for dinner I understand that 😂

I love OPEN TOP tour buses! Am I being SILLY ??

If i need to transfer to U1. Do i purchase two train tickets obb +u1 from airport vending machine

My recent impression was that ÖBB is hidden from new arrivals, and that CAT is presented first and most obviously. As a first-time visitor, I passed a lot of green CAT signs before finally discovering the ÖBB window. Having watched your previous videos about what to do, I was determined to not use CAT! ÖBB is less expensive, and has more frequent departures. Just be sure to buy a proper ticket before you step on the train!

Hi! Chef/waiter/manager for ~20 years here, small neighborhood pub/restaurant in 7th district, right next to Volkstheater. While PR is generally appreciated, past few years' overboarding online "spot hidden gems" rush has financially killed many such places. And we're struggling aswell, trying to fight the tide. That's why, if someone shows up with something even remotely resembling a camera team, I ask them to either shut that off and enjoy their stay 'offline' (signed!), or point them towards 1st district which is focused on - and happily living off - tourists for decades.. (...while we're fending off travel groups drawn-in by TripAdvisor/Google. or Quandoo's "accidental" overbooking your tables. happy times.)

Love your videos! Do you guys think there are job opportunities for cooks and pastry cooks right now in Vienna? I would love to move there! Thanks

Thank you for the good information. If there is a card payment option available, can you also tip with card or do you have to tip with cash?

In the summer time, I HIGHLY recommend to go to a Heuriger. There are loads in the 18th/19th/23rd district (not exlusive to those districs though)

I don’t see the link for the official event calendar

As you alluded to, tipping is out of control here in North America. I visit New York and I would be taking my life in my hands if I did not tip at least 20 percent. One interesting aspect of this is who actually gets the tip. I make a point of paying the tip in cash to the server. On a number of occasions, I would get hostile looks from the restaurant managers on my way out because presumably, they had seen the zero tip on the bill (that I paid by card) and then the question is, did the server tell the manager that I had paid them the tip in cash? If not, this suggests to me that the manager is probably skimming the tips and the server does not see all of it, or in some cases any of it. I don't think the wait staff are necessarily the villains in all cases. Indeed most of them are just trying to survive. I am visiting Vienna in late November of this year, my first trip, and I am curious to see what the waiters are like. One thing I have found when it comes to wait staff is that usually, the staff in the hotel restaurants are very good. This has been my experience in the past.

What. The U.S. can have non existing service or terrible service and still expect a 20% tip. Nowadays the default is like 25% tip. It’s out of control

I tip on the experience that I had while dining in the restaurant. When I am greeted with a smile and and talked to like a human being and treated with respect and my meal was good, than by all means you will get a tip. If I am treated like just another person expecting to tip me for whatever service I get, sorry but you don't deserve it. When i visited New Zealand, there was no expectation of a tip, in fact, I was looked at wierdly because I wanted to tip them. TIPS = Too Insure Proper Service. Quite frankly, if you want a tip in a country that it is expected, than you need to perform better.
