After a disappointing short and unfriendly tour in the inner part of the castle the bird show came as an unexpected great experience one doesn't see often! You can visit the numerous aviaries before or after the show as in a zoo and it is included in the ticket price! The show itself is impressive and is led professionally and with lovely sence of humour in German. If you don't speak German you will still not be disappointed as the show is anyway a great experience and it is very clear what is going on! The view from the open air "theatre" is amazing and it is used as a background of the show. Our children and elderly family members enjoyed the show equally and we went twice during our stay in Vienna because the kids wanted to visit again! In not so good whether the show is still performed and every visitor is given on request a blanket, umbrella and a a dry seat cover- I found that very thoughtful. I would visit again and again in good or bad weather as it is very interesting to observe how birds react differently according to weather conditions!What a great fun! Thank you for the great experience!
