I loved the gardens and the landscapes. Its very well spread and a delight to walk all the day. Not to forget one must visit souvenir shop also. Palace is very well maintained. One must not miss the view from the top.

The Schonbrunn Palace was the summer palace of the Habsburgs therefore you can expect something quite big. It is considered the Versailles of Vienna. The gardens are an attraction by itself therefore I won’t describe it here. The palace is big and you can use the very good audio guide (included in the ticket price) to guide you through the...

The entire place has a lot to do/see from the palace and tour, to the gardens, the maze, the parks, the glorietteat the top of the hill. We even checked out the apple strudel thing which was delicious. It's all very beautiful and worth walking around and taking in.

Easy access... the metro stop is right across the street. Several nice restaurants. Very enjoyable and educational tour. The palace is beautiful. Don't get the Gold Pass unless you want to spend two days and include the zoo.

Plan to spend a lot of time touring the several floors of this spectacular palace that provides much fascinating information and family history on the Hapsburg rulers of Austria...The gardens surrounding the palace are simple, formal, elegant and beautiful.
