5.00It was an amazing tour! We had a great time. This is a tour meant for those visiting Vienna for the first time, but we learned a whole bunch of things despite having visited the city several times before.
Highly recommended – even by a local Viennese

5.00We did a tour with Herbert and had a fantastic experience. He is incredibly friendly and extremely knowledgeable - especially impressive because he’s Viennese himself and clearly deeply connected to the city’s history. Even though I’m from Vienna and already knew quite a bit, Herbert went far beyond the standard tour, sharing deeper insights and answering our questions in great detail. We ended up going over time simply because the conversations were so engaging - he never rushed us and you could really feel his passion for history and storytelling. It’s obvious that guiding isn’t “just a job” for him - he offers many tours in Vienna, and I even kept his card for future ones. As a Viennese, I can genuinely recommend this tour. It was absolutely worth the money and a great part of showing my girlfriend the city. Wouldn’t want to have missed it.
Good tour
