Our privately guided tour ensures that you receive individualized attention from our knowledgeable local guide. Our local guides are passionate about their city and have an in-depth understanding of Vienna's history, culture, and hidden gems. They'll share fascinating stories and local anecdotes that you won't find in guidebooks, giving you a deeper appreciation for the city's rich heritage. While we'll certainly cover Vienna's iconic landmarks, our tour also includes delightful detours to lesser-known spots that only a local would know. Get ready to uncover charming corners, hidden courtyards, and tucked-away cafes that add an extra layer of magic to your Vienna experience. Our 2-hour tour is designed to provide a comprehensive introduction to Vienna without feeling rushed. You'll have enough time to absorb the beauty of the architecture, take photos, and ask questions as we leisurely explore the city's highlights.

We had a wonderful tour with Nicoleta. She has an extensive knowledge of Vienna, combined with a true love of the city. As a long time resident, she injected insightful stories from her personal experiences. These stories brought the sights alive. And, she is a very good photographer, taking shots of us at every turn, presenting the photos on email. We highly recommend!

Violeta was very nice in that she brought us water and snacks. Unfortunately she does not have a license to be a guide and it showed. She was unaware that we had a 2 1/2 hour tour. She wanted us to tour with her for 5 hours. Some of the things she said to us were inappropriate. I have taken viator tours all over the world and this was the worst tour I have ever taken and the biggest waste of money! She was awful. All four of us actually said we wanted out money back
