Train was a bit fullThe journey took just over three hours and was mostly smooth and punctual - a real plus point, especially if you are familiar with Austrian and German rail transport
The train was modern and clean, the seats comfortable enough, even for longer journeys. The wifi worked well for the most part, even if it did go down for a short time in between. There were power sockets at the seats - really practical for me as someone who likes to work while travelling.

ExpensiveTrain was extremely fullDelayThe train journey from Passau to Vienna was generally pleasant and, above all, fast - that's one of the big advantages I appreciate about travelling by train. It's also a sustainable way of travelling, which is important to me personally. The on-board restaurant was open and looked good - I generally use it a lot on train journeys, even if I didn't make use of it this time. However, the train was extremely full (I travelled in the afternoon), probably because of a conference in Vienna. It was more crowded than ever, which also meant that almost all the toilets were blocked towards the end - a rather unpleasant experience. But that's not normally the case. I travelled first class and paid over 114 euros - I think that's quite expensive. Apart from that, everything worked well, the journey was quiet, there was only a slight delay at the end, but nothing dramatic. The wifi and sockets worked. I give it 4 out of 5 stars - one point deducted because of the extreme overcrowding and the toilet situation.

Slightly unpunctualThe train ride from Passau to Vienna was extremely pleasant. The train was fast, modern and very comfortable. The seats offered, in my opinion, enough space and were ergonomically very suitable. Only the departure was a little unpunctual, but this did not have a major impact on the overall positive travel experience. The route also offered beautiful landscapes. Really highly recommended!

St. Stephen's Cathedral stands proudly at the heart of Vienna with roots tracing back to Romanesque times; it has been a witness to countless historical events over centuries. This iconic Gothic structure holds immense significance as both a spiritual center for Catholics and an architectural marvel showcasing intricate details such as its colorful tiled roof and towering spire. What sets it apart are elements like the catacombs beneath where notable figures rest, along with breathtaking views from its observation deck.
Belvedere Palace consists of two magnificent baroque palaces set amidst lush gardens designed by renowned architect Johann Lukas von Hildebrandt in the early 18th century. It serves not just as an exquisite representation of aristocratic lifestyle but also houses one of Austria’s most important art collections including works by Gustav Klimt—most famously "The Kiss." The unique feature here is how each palace offers distinct artistic experiences: Upper Belvedere showcases masterpieces while Lower Belvedere highlights temporary exhibitions against opulent interiors.
