The palace is divided into time periods strating from Renaissance to 20th century. You will be able to see great deal of famous paintings and find new ones to enjoy, totally recommend booking it if you are fond of art, otherwise the gardens are also beautiful and it's free of charge.

The museum is wonderful; it has an audio guide that tells the story of each room we enter, and two hours fly by. Plus, the skip-the-line admission is really convenient.

A visit to the Belvedere in Vienna is an absolute must for any art lover. I was particularly interested in seeing Gustav Klimt’s "Judith", which is truly incredible, the shimmer of the gold and the intensity of the expression are even more breathtaking in person. The overall organization of the museum is top-notch, and I highly appreciated the stewards in the queue who were very helpful in managing the flow of visitors. Additionally, the staff in the shop were lovely and assisted me kindly with leaving my luggage in the lockers. The palace interiors are simply dazzling, providing a stunning backdrop to the world-class collection. Even though there is ongoing renovation work on the facade of one wing, the tour proceeds without any obstacles or disruptions. I also found the temporary exhibition very engaging, and the audio description guide in English was excellent—clear, informative, and very well-produced. It was a flawless cultural experience despite the minor construction outside.

My visit to the Upper Belvedere in Vienna was a surprise gift for our 20th anniversary—and it turned out to be absolutely perfect. I expected a nice museum visit, but I didn’t realize how many treasures were waiting inside. Admiring original works by Gustav Klimt in such a beautiful, historic setting was unforgettable. The collection also includes masterpieces by artists like van Gogh, Monet, and Munch, making it a truly rich experience. The most striking moment for me was a painting of a woman in a black dress—the textures of the fabric and jewelry felt almost three-dimensional, as if they were coming out of the canvas. Beyond the art itself, the whole experience—from the atmosphere of the palace to a classic Viennese coffee and strudel afterward—made this visit deeply emotional and memorable. recommended, especially if you appreciate art and want something truly special in Vienna. Headout, thank you for easy and clear access.

Really enjoyed the insights provided by our guide. So much to take in but the highlights she presented to us in a succinct and easily understood style made the visit just perfect. The section on Klimt was first class, her panoramic picture tip an added "extra" and her suggestion to walk down through the gardens to the city rounded off a visit beyond expectation.
