Vienna City Walk 3h - Unpacked & Hidden Places
Overview

3 hours
Mobile ticket
If you are visiting Vienna for the first time and just want to take a tour, this is the right place to start.
This walk connects the most important places of the city with their historical contexts.
In three hours, an overall picture of Vienna's old town is created : from the early structures to the major development steps to the present city.
The route leads to well-known places such as Stephansdom and Hofburg, but also through quieter areas away from the main axes.
The focus is not on individual sights, but on the connections that make Vienna understandable.
The tour is deliberately clear and structured.
It is aimed at guests who are looking for orientation and want to develop the city independently after the guided tour.
After this walk, you not only saw Vienna, but classified it : historically, spatially and culturally.
In addition, you will receive specific recommendations for your further stay.
Whatever the weather and the number of participants.

5.00Moritz was incredibly knowledgeable and a fun tour guide. He even did the tour when it was just two of us. For first timers to Vienna (and Austria), he gave a lot of history which helped understand and appreciate the country more. I think of it as seeing it in a different light. I definitely recommend starting your trip with this walking tour.
Great start to visiting Vienna

5.00If you’re first time in Vienna - do not hesitate and book this walking tour! Moritz is an excellent storyteller, he’s local and loves his city and enjoys showing it! He guided us through the time and history of Vienna with ease and enthusiasm. Because of the cold and humid weather, we stopped for a traditional coffee and strudel, and after this short break we felt almost like a family. :) Moritz created a heartwarming atmosphere, it felt as if we were walking with a good friend showing us Vienna. We highly recommend Moritz as your guide, he went above and beyond on our walking tour.
