Sustainable sightseeing in Vienna - it's that easy to reduce CO2 emissions
Due to the current global situation, the topic of sustainability is now running through all areas of life. It has also become important for many people to act in a sustainable and climate-friendly way in their free time. In this blog post you can find out why leisure activities and sustainability do not have to be contradictory and how sustainability can be implemented in relation to sightseeing in Vienna.
What is sustainability and why is it important?
Let's first clarify what is behind the somewhat vague word "sustainability". The term "sustainability" has been on everyone's lips in recent years and has become a popular buzzword.
In a nutshell, sustainability is about not consuming more than can be regrown, regenerated or made available again in the future. In many cases, it is about environmental and climate protection.
The aim is that the next generations can also live well on earth, which brings us to the importance of the topic. Sustainability has many benefits, both short-term and long-term.
Fact is: the ecosystems of our planet cannot be preserved if we continue as before.
What sustainable contribution can you make yourself?
What private individuals do or don't do in everyday life often doesn't seem important. Questions like: Do I take a car or a bike? Do I eat meat in the restaurant or do I use a vegetarian alternative? These questions are of central importance when it comes to sustainability. Because the consequences of decisions add up.
Some areas have a much greater impact than others. Long-distance travel by plane, for example, is particularly important for private CO2 emissions. Arriving on site, one or the other asks how the holiday destination can be explored in a climate-friendly way through a sightseeing tour. Can sustainability be combined with sightseeing at all?
Which sustainable sightseeing tours are available in Vienna?
Sustainable sightseeing is not as complicated to implement as one might think. If you want to explore the city emission-free, you can get around on foot. If you don't want to miss the historical background, you have the opportunity to take part in a free-walking sightseeing tour. If that is too slow for you, you can do sustainable sightseeing relatively quickly with an electric scooter or a bicycle tour.
If you prefer to get around on 4 wheels away from the tourist crowds, you have the opportunity to explore the city quietly and in an environmentally friendly way (no CO2 emissions) with a sightseeing tour in an electric vintage car.
The original replica electric vintage cars enable a private tour through the city center of Vienna in a sustainable and climate-friendly way. Sightseeing becomes a special and unique experience off the beaten track.
Our guests don't have to leave the sightseeing tour thirsty and hungry - we have come up with something special.
Vienna's first vegan and sustainable sightseeing tour in an electric vintage car - sustainability meets climate friendliness.
The sustainable experience in the emission-free classic electric car combines a newly interpreted Austrian classic with a climate-friendly city sightseeing tour through Vienna's old town.
The aim was to offer an emission-free and climate-friendly alternative to conventional sightseeing tours including the finest cuisine. A real Vienna experience with a difference!
The special thing about this: during the sustainable sightseeing tour, no standard veal schnitzel will be served, but the newly created planted.schnitzel made from pea protein from the famous Figlmüller restaurant.
The specially developed schnitzel made of plant meat consists of 100% plant-based ingredients and does not contain any additives.
The sustainable city sightseeing tour starts with a glass of wine in the center of Vienna, passing the most beautiful sights. During a stopover at the traditional Figlmüller, the unique vegan Wiener Schnitzel from the company "Planted" is served directly in the electric vintage car and can be enjoyed during the sightseeing trip.
Thanks to the specially designed restaurant furniture inside the E-Oldtimer, eating and drinking during the City Sightseeing Tour is just as easy and convenient as in the restaurant.
This sightseeing tour is aimed at everyone who wants to combine climate friendliness and veganism and experience extraordinary tours in Vienna. Sightseeing in Vienna with a difference (Wien mal anders)!
