Butterflies are really cool! - A tropical greenhouse in the centre of Vienna - it’s something slightly different. Won’t take you too long to go round, it is quite small, but it is also not expensive. The butterflies are beautiful and you can get up close to them. If you’re very lucky one will even land on you!

Great experience for all ages. - The house was beautiful, lots of interesting facts about the butterflies. The flowers and butterflies were incredible to see. Great experience, highly recommend. It was hot in mid August but worth the money.

🦋 🦋🦋🦋 everywhere - Ok, this one was really amazing. It is a smaller tour, but it's worth every cent. From start to finish you are good ng to be surrounded by 🦋🦋 butterflies. They fly freely around you, so there will also be plenty of photo opportunities

Butterflies forever! - Awesome experience for all ages! Highly recommend, then be sure to have lunch next door! Found everything we needed in Viator, and have already recommended their site to others traveling to Europe.

Great-ish. - Very nice to see the wonderful plants and butterfly's. Crowded at times though and cheaper to purchase the ticket at the place rather then on any website. Half the price at the door! And no wait FYI

Place of fairy tales - •Located in a fantastic art deco building you can see a number of butterflies freely roaming in a tropical environment. It is therefore quite hot inside and more than 20 minutes is difficult to stay. It is still a nice experience and the butterflies if you approach slowly also come on your hands. Entrance euro 9,50 strictly cash only

Beautiful grounds. Meh experience. - Overall it was pretty. Very quick. Also, the ticket lady was extremely rude! We were such an inconvenience because we used our app and not printed tickets.

Prices unreasonable - It was quite full, only one cash register for the shop and entrance tickets. From the outside, the building looks much bigger than it actually is. The entrance fees are quite high, I spent about 30 minutes there and saw everything. Otherwise, I can confirm what the previous speaker said.

nothing to see - A very expensive ticket to visit a small place where plants and a couple of butterflies abound. It is not worth wasting time on this visit.

Waste of money. Staff unable to deal with disabled customer - Hardly any butterflies. Dying plants. Over in 10 minutes and that's walking slowly. The staff were very unhappy about opening the larger barrier to let me through with my walker. I couldn't get out either. A kind member of the public lifted my frame over the barrier so I could get out.
