I visited Vienna with my kids, and this zoo ticket was the perfect activity. They loved all the animals - the polar bears, the lions, the monkeys, but especially the giant pandas. My daughter wanted me to color her eyes black! Altogether, we spent a good 5 hours there, so the zoo was a great choice.
This zoo literally has every animal. We saw arctic wolves in the woods - that was really cool - bats, elephants, rhinos… anything you want to see, they have. Even the plant exhibits, like the rainforest house, were incredible - so green and calming! The Schönbrunn Zoo tickets are also good for skip-the-line access. It was 30 degrees that day, so I really appreciated entering immediately!
