From Frankfurt to Vienna by bus

The bus is one of the cheaper ways to travel from Frankfurt to Vienna, but it is, unfortunately, one of the most time-consuming – but not the most time-consuming as that honor lies with the train.

The main bus coach company operating trips from Frankfurt to Vienna is Flixbus, and they only offer one trip daily, which takes an average of about seven to eight hours. The trip can cost between $40 and $60 per ticket, and you can expect WiFi, a luggage compartment, and at least one stop adding to the travel time.

From Frankfurt to Vienna by train

There isn't a direct train from Frankfurt to Vienna, so this option is inconvenient and time-consuming. You have to take a half-hour bus trip from Frankfurt (B.M. Taschendorf) to the Neustadt an der Aisch train station and then take a night train to Nurnberg before transferring to a high-speed train that will take you to the Wien train station in Vienna. Unfortunately, this night train option involves multiple stopovers, where you must wait between three and seven hours for the next connection, and the entire trip can take up to 18 hours. Yikes!

From Frankfurt to Vienna by flight

Flying is a logistical nightmare if you're traveling to Vienna. If you're not taking a taxi or private car to the airport, you must take the bus from Frankfurt to the Markt Bibart station, where you'll transfer to the train. The train trip will take about two hours, with a stopover in Wurzburg before arriving at the Frankfurt (M) Flughafen Fernbf train station in Kelsterbach.

From here, you'll transfer to the Frankfurt airport – yes, you have not even left the city yet – and take a one-and-a-half-hour flight to Vienna. Once in Vienna, you must take a taxi or private car into the city center or transfer to the Vienna Airport train station and take a 15-minute trip to the Vienna city center station before making your way to your accommodation. Not only is this expensive, but incredibly time-consuming.

From Frankfurt to Vienna by private car

The car trip from Frankfurt to Vienna is approximately 442 miles (714 km) and takes about seven and a half hours. However, this travel time can vary based on traffic and road conditions. Since this is a fairly lengthy trip, one of the best travel methods is by private car service Daytrip. A private car service affords you the luxury you deserve. It's faster than the bus, and you'll be comfortable and entertained for the entire ride as you sightsee and chat with the local driver, who has many travel tips to share.

Not to mention, a private driver will have the knowledge and expert skills to navigate the roads and complex city streets easily while you sit back and relax.

Marvel at the majestic museums

Since Vienna was a cultural capital, it should come as no surprise that it has a wealth of world-class museums. In fact, it has one of the largest districts for art and culture in the world, the MuseumsQuartier! The Kunsthistorisches Museum is Vienna’s legendary national history museum which houses one of the largest collections of artifacts in the country. And over at the Belvedere Palace you’ll find the world’s largest Gustav Klimt collection, including Klimt’s most famous painting, ‘The Kiss’, as well as paintings by Van Gogh and Monet.

Schönbrunn Palace

Vienna’s answer to Versailles, the UNESCO-listed Schönbrunn Palace is a Baroque marvel. Tour the lavish interior, stroll the surrounding flower-filled garden, and visit the oldest zoo in the world, Tiergarten Zoo, one of only 27 zoos where you can see the endangered giant panda.

St. Stephen's Cathedral

Europe is known for its many churches, chapels, and cathedrals, and Austria is no different. The famed St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna is more than 500 feet tall at its tallest point, making it the tallest church in Austria.

If you plan on visiting, the cathedral's main entrance is free. But if you want to explore the entirety of the cathedral, there is a paid ticket. Just don't forget to make your way to the top by elevator or on foot, as you'll be rewarded with a panoramic view of Vienna from the top.

Otto Wagner's Majolikahaus

One of the most beautiful and most famous Art-Nouveau-styled buildings in the world is Otto Wagner's Majolikahaus. This building is iconic with its flower motifs and colorful tiles that grab the eye and cause many travelers to ponder its history. Although you might not be able to go inside the 1899 building designed by Austrian architect Otto Wagner, it's still worth stopping by Linke Wienzeile 40 in the Laimgruber neighborhood to admire its colorful facade.

Vienna State Opera

If you enjoy classical music, you'll be among the more than 10,000 people who sit down for an orchestral performance somewhere in the city every day. Vienna is renowned for its music, and the best place to enjoy an authentic Austrian music experience is the Vienna State Opera. This opulent opera house hosts 350 performances each season, and you can buy tickets online.

You can also buy a ticket for a ballet show at this opera house if you love some world-class choreography with your musical performance.

Near the opera the 'House of Music' is well worth a visit if you want to learn more about Vienna's musical traditions and history.

For example, the best time to travel from Frankfurt to Vienna if you want to enjoy warm but not exceedingly hot temperatures, fewer crowds, and balmy breezes is during April and May or September and October. In contrast, if you like the cooler months and want to enjoy low accommodation and attraction rates, traveling to Vienna from Frankfurt is best done during December and over Christmas.
