Vienna, looking for Sissi
Of the first tourists to travel the thousand or so kilometres between Nice and Vienna, one has had her name immortalised by history and the small screen: Elisabeth of Austria, nicknamed “Sissi”. Now, over a century later, it is tourists from the French Riviera who are visiting the famous Empress, thanks to a Nice-Vienna flight: much faster than the steam trains and carriages of the past! They search for her memory in the corridors of the Hofburg or the gardens of Schönbrunn Palace, or even among the waltzing couples at the Austrian capital’s hundreds of balls. A romantic quest that transforms a simple Nice-Vienna flight ticket into a love story!

- car sharing, with one of two specialists: car2go or Drivenow, located on Level 0 of Car Park 3.
What to do in
Vienna ?
A city where everyone flocks to see a kiss (the one in Gustav Klimt’s famous painting, on display at the Belvedere) must be romantic. And it really is: Vienna kindles or rekindles love, offering its visitors a very special atmosphere. Is it the refinement of its architecture, the simple charm of the locals, the indulgent offerings in its cafés, the warmth of its thermal baths, the beauty of its palaces, the grace of its waltzes, or the serenity of the Danube? Whatever the reason, no other city is as favourable to letting go, sharing, and indulging your emotions.
