5.00This was my second visit to Schonbrunn and this experience with a knowledgeable guide was so worthwhile and enjoyable. Our guide Eddie added colour and texture to what I remember experiencing the first time I went through the palace with just the recorded audio guide. Bonus points for Eddie offering us recommendations on places to eat and things to do during the rest of our time in Vienna. Thank you, Eddie!

5.00Ale was patient and funny, but also incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the history of the tour. Everything you want in a tour guide. The Palace was filled with many rooms, each filled with new and exciting details. Could have spent the whole day here.

5.00I took a trip to the palace, forgetting it was the summer one. Michael my tour guide and did an outstanding job. He was very interactive with our small group and was very knowledgeable. I had a splendid time and would definitely come back, with him as my guide, for a summer tour to see the palace in all its beauty!
