Even though Vienna is a beautiful city, you shouldn’t forget to take some amazing day trips to nearby cities. After taking advantage of the best tours and experiences Vienna has to offer, look around to visit other places as well. Trips from Vienna to Bratislava in Slovakia or Budapest in Hungary are very convenient as the two capitals are relatively close. Even beautiful Prague, in the Czech Republic, is doable as a rushed day trip. Prague is just over 3 hours away from Vienna. So, using Vienna as a base will allow you to visit 4 capitals without even changing hotels.

Back to the subject, Bratislava is a relatively small city. A day trip from Vienna will be enough to get a taste of the city. There are many things to do in Bratislava, so you may decide to return for a longer stay.
