Two days with children
- Day 1: funicular to the Alpine Zoo, two hours there, on to Seegrube for the view, back to town and the 133 steps of the City Tower.
- Day 2: shuttle to Swarovski Crystal Worlds (play tower), back to the station, Audioversum ten minutes away in the afternoon. In rain, Audioversum first and the Imperial Palace after.
The IVB 24-hour 2Plus ticket at €10.80 covers two adults and three children; the Innsbruck Card for children is half the adult price and includes the zoo, both lifts and the Audioversum.
Rainy day order
Audioversum opens at 10:00 (closed Mondays) and is ten minutes from the station; the Imperial Palace next to the cathedral runs 9:00 to 17:00 with an audio guide and is free for under-19s; the Court Church and Folk Art Museum share an entrance and a €14 combined ticket. Swarovski Crystal Worlds is entirely indoors except the garden and the play tower, so the shuttle day works in rain too. The Hungerburg funicular has enclosed cabins and the zoo's bear and wolf enclosures are visible from covered paths.
