We all enjoyed the tour very much & we felt it was very personal. We saw other tours with MANY PEOPLE and we were so happy it was just the four of us. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and she was careful to take us to places or areas that we were most interested in. I would recommend this tour especially for first timers to this beautiful city.

What a beautiful city to be toured on foot! Wolfgang, our guide, did an amazing job. We did the full 6-hour tour. We started with the Hofburg palace (the apartments, Sisi museum, and the treasury), then a tour of the old town. We did it the first day we were in Vienna. It’s a great way of starting your visit to know all the highlights and the hidden gems. Wolfgang’s recommendations we very helpful.

Our guide, Ute, was very personable and knowledgeable. She adapted the tour as we encountered interesting historical monuments that weren’t on the “schedule”. This private tour was a great introduction to Vienna, and I highly recommend booking Ute.
We have enjoyed this tour so much it was funny and educational. Our guys Merty was fantastic she gave us a lot of valuable insights about the city and viennies history. I recommend this tour to everyone
Lots to see and live, street, monuments, catch the trams and metro with frequent and fast services, generally friendly and polite people, enjoy large or less large classical music concerts in halls or in churches everything is quality and... more.
Outstanding experience! Ute is an exceptional guide, allowing us to see so much more than we would have on our own. We thoroughly enjoyed the tours of the Hapsburg museums, the local restaurant for lunch, and the sights of the Old Town. What a great day in Vienna!
