Why this trip
A palace, a coffee house and children: does that go together? In Vienna it does, if you choose the programme wisely. From May to October the days are warm, and the city's large parks give children room to move between sights. Schönbrunn is the most important destination for families, because the park is spacious and children can run around while the parents admire the palace.
The Hofburg is easy to visit with school-age children if you plan for one hour and no more. The Belvedere has a garden that invites a stroll, and the MuseumsQuartier offers room for breaks in its courtyard. St Stephen's Cathedral stands in the middle of the old town, and from there it is only a few steps to the nearest coffee house, where children recover with a hot chocolate. Eight places to stay are available.
If you want to add some nature, Salzburg and Hallstatt are neighbours worth an excursion. You can travel without a visa, and the train or flight remains easy for children to manage. Which museums make sense for your children and which do not, you can settle in the video call.
