Trash
The app did not work from start to finish! I downloaded and entered the code, and then I was told the app would start when I arrived at the destination. Upon arrival at the destination, nothing worked at all; not even the help offered any assistance. One star is actually far too much; zero stars would be better.

Always funny
I myself live in Vienna and do the tours again and again with girlfriend who come to visit me. It's so easy and so fun and even though I've done some tours twice, they're still good! I can recommend it to anyone who likes to get to know cities in an easy, playful way

Very cool puzzle tour
Great opportunity to explore the hidden treasures of Vienna's city center! The puzzles are great for exploring the area. In general, the tour worked easily - download the app, enter the code and off you go. It's also practical that you can pause at any time and take a break.

Great option to explore Vienna
CityRiddler rocks! Very nice way to explore Vienna, especially with friends. It really led us to hidden places throughout the city, we ended up doing two different tours (one history&art and one focused on cuisine). Would love to try it again in other cities.

Why this scores 58

Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vienna.
How much does Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler cost?
+
Prices start at $20 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vienna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler take?
+
Plan for about 2 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vienna is not rushed.
Is Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 58 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.2/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vienna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vienna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vienna and add a light layer if any part of the 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Explore the Hidden Gems of Vienna with CityRiddler start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vienna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Vienna?
+
On Outty we rank every Vienna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Authentic Vienna Food Tour inc. lunch, street food, 3 drinks, Vienna Food Tour: Coffeehouses, Markets, Lunch & Street Food, Budapest Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Vienna?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Vienna?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
