A Must Do in Vienna
Touring Vienna with Peter is a MUST. I went on a lot of tours in several cities in one week and this tour stands far above the rest. Peter was easy to understand (which is important when you are listening to someone with an accent), so full of knowledge and the best part is that he is so full of personality. We only had time for about a 2 hour tour but I wish we could have stayed with him all day. I felt very comfortable asking him to elaborate on something he was telling us or to say "I don't understand."

Max was an awesome guide....
Max was an awesome guide. He was knowledgeable, interested in what we wanted to see and our tour included Vienna highlights and unique areas of Vienna. We couldn't have asked for a better time or guide.

Thank you very much for your kind words. It has been a pleasure guiding you through the city. I hope to see you again soon—maybe even in Costa Rica :)
All the best,

We were more than satisfied with the whole organization and execution!
We had a tour group by bus.
From the beginning: the enthusiasm and joy of our guide Peter knew no bounds. We had many tour guides on our bus, but we never had such a competent and fun tour guide. The explanations about the individual objects was more than excellent. Should we come back to Vienna or the surrounding area, no other tour guide is possible for us than Peter Scheiber! Hello Peter, keep up the good work!

Amazing Walking Tour of Vienna
I am so thankful that I found Wienguide Tours on Trip Advisor. Finding a four hour walking tour of Vienna that will entertain and educate a group of 12 (family and friends) ranging from 14 to 56 years of age is no small feat. Thanks to Peter Schreiber of Wienguide Tours my family and friends now think I am an amazing trip planner! Peter brought Vienna alive through a combination of historical story telling, show and tell and theatre. His knowledge, enthusiasm, energy and personality were a clear differentiator from other guides we have had in the past. We highly recommend Peter Schreiber and Wienguide Tours!

Great Tour for international participants
We required a sightseeing tour as part of our international conference, which hosted participants from all over the world with a focus on lighting. We received prompt and professional assistance, and Ms. Helga was an outstanding tour guide. We can only pass on the enthusiastic praise from our attendees and will certainly recommend this tour in the future. Communication with Mr. Peter was also excellent, smooth, fast, and worry-free.

Outstanding Private Group tour of Vienna with Peter
I took my Group of 17 guests on 2 x Private Tours with Peter, including the Classic Private City Tour. Not only was it an extremely enjoyable and informative tour of Vienna, we found Peter to be an interesting and fun guide, with amazing local knowledge and passion for "his Vienna". Our guests loved how he welcomed us to his city, and shared stories that made it so much more than just a tour. I have already booked him in again next year for my next group. Danke Schon Peter.

Not only Udo Jürgens - the Central Cemetery with Stefan T.
A stimulating and humorous guided tour by Stefan T. over part of the cemetery to some selected graves. Very informative and entertaining, well taken care of questions - I would like to see him on other tours.
