Stuttgart City Guide 🇩🇪
Let’s go explore
Stuttgart, the heart of Swabia and the home of Spätzle. What does that even mean you might ask. While the region Swabia has roots in the Middle Ages - Spätzle is a thick kind of noodle, strongly reminding of pasta, common in south German cuisine.

Hidden gems
Stuttgart’s vibrant city life serves as one of its landmarks, making the city what it is. It’s a hilly city, perfect for riding Voi. And while you might not be able to go all the way up the slopes with your e scooter to enjoy the view, the Killesbergturm and the Grabkapelle are especially great if you want to enjoy the city from above. But if you get sweaty palms by heights - we recommend the new Staatsgalerie as it’s a great area to ride Voi with absolutely wild architecture and interesting art.

Voi friendly areas
Riding Voi is always fun, but in some places more fun than in others. In order to avoid getting stuck in traffic, take the easier option and use the big main roads to get from east to west, and from south to north. Around Rotebühlplatz there is a traffic-calmed zone, where you can enjoy the Voi experience to the fullest. When you've had enough of the hustle and bustle of the city you can find the beautiful castle garden nearby, which offers cycle paths for Voi riders. But watch out for ducks and birds that regularly leave Wilhelma, Stuttgart's zoological and botanical garden, who like to stroll carefree through the park.
