Getting there:
Vienna boasts one of the finest public transport systems in Europe; it is safe and easy to use, and consists of punctual bus, tram, underground and rail services. Most operate from about 0600 to midnight; buses stop earlier but there are night buses on weekends covering the major routes. The tram network is one of the largest worldwide and is the next best way of getting about with the added advantage of being able to see the city, although some lines don't operate on weekends. Buses are useful in the inner city where there are no trams
