We are going to Vienna in August for a wedding and will be staying a week. I'm looking for things to do.
DH is a PITA, he is not much of a museum fan. Basically he only likes to eat. For example, all we did in Paris was eat our way through the city (I had been there twice before, so it was not too bad, but still).
Re: Vienna
When I visited Vienna several years ago I saw the following:
I like boat rides. I can get him to do that.
Food market obviously will be right up his alley.
In August you can go to one of the many "swimming holes" on the river. I like the Strandbad G?nseh?ufel.
Even if he doesn't like museums, Schonbrunn Palace is worth the trip. I LOVE it. There's the palace, the gardens, the zoo, the maze. Go there!
Visit the Prater - a large amusement park. In the summer they show movies there at night.
Take a trip out to a heuriger (a winery). I lived on the way to Grinzing, so that's the one we used to go to. They do big traditional style dinners so there's something both of you may enjoy.
I love the museums there, so I'm not so helpful in that respect - and I don't know what he doesn't like about them - but one of the more unusual is the Narrenturm - a mental hospital turned oddity museum. There's also the Haus der Musik which is a pretty cool interactive museum about music. And my DH fell "in love" with the Hundertwasserhaus.
You can visit both the crypt and the tower of St. Stephen's.
You can visit Freud's apartment and the graves of Beethoven, Schoenberg, Schubert, and Strauss.
