Anna was an awesome guide...
Valerie G,May 3, 2026
- Review from Viator
4.00Anna was an awesome guide that gave us great insight into Austrian and Viennese history. We covered a lot of ground and saw many of the highlights of the city. Our time in Schonbrunn was limited, if I had it to do over again, I would’ve picked a tour where I did that as a separate experience. The ticket for the palace covered on a small area. The tour within the city was all exterior, we did not enter any buildings other than the cathedral. Of course it was a national holiday so many things were also closed. This was a great tour but if I could design it I’d make it longer and I’d include more time in Schonbrunn and more time exploring the city highlights as well.

5.00This was hands down one of the best tours I’ve ever taken. Cammi was an absolute expert on Austrian history — her knowledge, humor, and storytelling were remarkable. She shared the city’s past with such enthusiasm and warmth that it never felt like a lecture, but a lively walk through time. I learned so much that I left Vienna with a genuine affection for the city. This tour is an absolute must!

5.00We had such a memorable time exploring Vienna, our professional guide turned what could’ve been an ordinary tour into something truly special. His knowledge went far beyond basic facts — he shared stories, local insights, and fun details that made the city’s history come alive, and adapted everything to our group’s rhythm and interests, which made the whole experience feel effortless and personal. I’d happily book another tour with him next time I’m in Vienna.
