Description

Tour is offered by the only offical and local guide who worked as a chef for around 18 years. So you will get the best informations about the traditional food but also about the history of innsbruck. so this tour is for everybody - not to much facts and dates but also time between to learn about austrian food+drinks and taste some sweets. We will pass the original golden Roof - we will find golden tiles made by ginger bread. Churches in Innsbruck, are beautiful but why the monks always had been the best beer brewers...? and the question is... why the Vienna sausage is called a Frankfurter in Austria.. :-)

Walking Innsbruck with our group of 7

Alessandro is a great guide. He shared so much history of Innsbruck past and present! We enjoyed this walking tour all through the city on a quiet Sunday. So knowledgeable and friendly and shared inside info on living in Innsbruck as he has lived there all his life. The tour ended with local pastries and coffee. Divine!

Beautiful place to visit.

We toured the township of Innsbruck and with a tour group of only 11. Getting there we travelled the country roads, through the Tyrol district. The views were amazing. Mountains; villages; rolling hills; pristine rivers. Cold and a little cloudy but still fine for sightseeing. We spent our time mainly in the ‘old city’ part of Innsbruck (it has hosted 2x Winter Olympics); and is a popular ski resort destination. Totally unexpected, we came across a formal installation of the new district flag - with traditional uniforms; musicians; flower maidens; riflemen - all being very offical. Pretty cool.

Operator response

Thanks a lot for these words, nice to hear if people enjoy the tour.

Excellent city tour

We asked Alex for a guided tour of the city. This appointment was very easy by mail and a suitable date was found for us, which was not possible through other providers. At the meeting point we were picked up on time and besides the tourist information about Innsbruck, we were on very specific. Special features of Innsbruck made aware. We also received tips on gastronomy (where locals go and there are no tourist price increases). The story was also well received and so the 1.5 hour guided tour flew by as if in no time. We could always ask questions and Alex answered them in detail. He also gave us tips on what we could absolutely do in Innsbruck, which times of day are convenient for some visits and where to get there and how. He also responded very well to the interests of our small group and made the tour a highlight in Innsbruck for us. Thanks again for that!

We met Alexander at our Hotel and commenced what was meant to be a 90 minute walking tour. This turned into >2 hours. The tour was well planned and took in all the sites of the old town with lots of discussion on the history of the town and events over the centuries. Alexander also gave guidance on how to best get around Innsbruck which was really helpful. I would certainly give this a two thumbs up recommendation.

Operator response

Hello from Innsbruck, Nice to hear and read from you, thanks for this great Review, greetings Alexander

Highly recommended

We had a very successful guided tour of Innsbruck. Our guide was very competent and entertaining, the whole group between 18 and 62 years old was delighted. We can highly recommend such a tour with Mr. Bader. Our guided tour lasted even longer than the 90 minutes indicated, at no extra charge.
