Thank you Anastasiia for showing us around picturesque Austria. Your tour was interesting and fun.
Thank you Anastasiia for an amazing, informative private tour of Vienna. We enjoyed our tour with you and loved that you catered for the requirements of our children as well. Anastasiia was very friendly and her wealth of knowledge about the history of Austria was beyond impressive. We were able to experience traditional food and visit significant landmarks without waiting in long lines. We would definitely recommend this tour for anyone visiting this beautiful country.

OUTSTANDING WORK OF LISA
Highly recommended!
Old town tour with Lisa was
*very informative - she's knowledgeable
*funny - she presents history facts with smart humor, she is a great story teller,
*professional - she's well-organized.
We really enjoyed the time with Mona Lisa - we learned some stunning facts listening to local Viennese with absolutely great energy and remarcable level of english commenting the history, architecture and social behaviours. We even forget about the windy weather during the tour ;)
Bravo !

Fantastic first day in Vienna
We were in two minds about doing this free tour largely on the basis that in this world you generally get what you pay for. On this occasion I was happy to be wrong. Our excellent guide Katerina was both knowledgeable and fun bringing to life over 1000 years of history with great explanations in English. We felt like we really got a good intro to the city which has helped us to figure out what else we’d like to see whilst we’re here.
Obviously the tour wasn’t free in that we tipped at the end but worth every single cent that we paid. Highly recommended as tour guides in Vienna and highly trained and professional.
