Fabulous tour! - This tour was amazing! Our guide, Lisa, was friendly, knowledge, and interesting. She tailored the tour to us and made it so much fun. My children all agree it was their favorite walking tour to date. We highly recommend!

Excellent!!! - What a wonderful experience. Lisa was the best guide. She was very informative and fun to listen to as we walked the city. While the walk was long, she kept a pace that worked for us (we are in our 60s and 70s). Such great information at each stage of the walk. I highly recommend this private walk with Lisa!

Absolutely best tour... - Absolutely best tour guide we have ever had in 20+ years of international travel. Her knowledge of history was great and she was able to relate it to the 7 year-old in our group. We plan to book future travel again with Lisa.

Great teambuilding event - Our guide was fantastic - she was full of energy and very knowledgeable. The fact that she was born and raised in Vienna and moved to the US at age 10, before moving back as an adult, gave her unique insights that our group appreciated. Of the 15 attendees, 12 were from Vienna and 3 from the US - all felt they learned something on the tour

Excellent tour guide and very personable - we really enjoyed it! - My husband and I were very happy with the private tour of Vienna with Marco. He was very personable and had so much knowledge about the city and the history of Vienna and Austria. It was relaxing because we were doing the tour we wanted to do and not with a big group! Marco showed us places to go to after our tour as well which really helped. Well worth the extra money, especially if you want to really understand Vienna.

Privileged visit - Very informative walk in the historic heart of Vienna. Our guide, Reinhard, provided us with a lot of historical information which enlightened and deeply enriched our visit. It's a real plus to schedule this visit at the start of your stay to know the essentials about Vienna and then be able to delve deeper into the places that touched us the most. We have lots of advice on museums and monuments to see, restaurants and cafes to do... I recommend 200%

A Vienna tour not to be missed! - Claudia M provided one of the best walking tours we have ever had in Europe! Her astute knowledge of fascinating Austrian history and making sure we were taken to see a multitude of the “nooks and crannies” of Vienna made for a day we won’t soon forget. Highly recommend this tour- we will be back!

Should have been a better tour - The goal of these tours ought to be first hand visits of key historical and cultural points as well as provision of rich information about culture, his, art, etc. The tour was disappointing because it did NOT provide that. The guide (Hernando) talked about a lot of things but did not give in depth information about history and culture.
