Book Description

Series: Michael Brein's Guides to Sightseeing By Public Transportation | Publication Date: July 1, 2000

Michael Brein's Guide to Vienna by the U-Bahn shows travelers how to go to Vienna's top 50 visitor attractions by U-Bahn, rail, tram, and bus. The guide shows which transit to use, which lines to take, which stops to board and exit at, and, using about 30 detailed mini-area-walking maps, shows exactly how to walk from these stops right to the visitor attractions. Additional nearby points of interest are also indicated on these mini-maps. An ultra-large (very easy to read) official map of Vienna's transit system is also provided. The Vienna guide is concise, compact, and comprehensive and fits in your pocket (leave the bulky books back in the hotel room!). Michael Brein s Vienna guide is part of the world's first and only travel guide series specifically designed to show travelers how to sightsee the top 50 visitor attractions by public transportation in a variety of the world's most visited cities.#
