What are people saying about Vienna

Katherine_W, Jun 2026

It is very well done....

It is very well done. Michael was our tour guide, and he is extremely well read and knowledgable about Hitler and his time in Vienna. I learned a lot - the ear pieces they used were of high quality and it was easy to hear everything. I especially enjoyed learning about the Jews in Vienna and visitng where they lived and the memorials to those who died. Top notch!

The Hills did come Alive

We had a long drive to Salzburg, but the journey was made truly enjoyable by the wonderful stops along the way. Each stop was well chosen and offered something unique, making the travel time feel much shorter and more interesting. Our guides Roman and Eva were exceptional—friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. They shared fascinating information about the history, culture, and landmarks throughout the trip, which added so much value to the experience. Their enthusiasm and expertise kept everyone engaged and made the journey memorable. Overall, this was a fantastic excursion with beautiful scenery, excellent organization, and outstanding guides. I highly recommend it to anyone traveling to Salzburg who wants to enjoy the journey as much as the destination.

Prague Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna

Annie_N, Jun 2026

Prague highlights

It was a great overview of Prague highlights with a small group. It was a nice way to spend the afternoon in a cool city to decide if it’s a place we’d like to revisit (we would! LOL). I was ok with not spending time at each point of interest and just getting the overview. And Linda, our tour guide was very sweet and knowledgeable. Belange (our driver) was also very knowledgeable and kind.

As good as advertised

The tour was as good as advertised. It is indeed a small group, only 7 of us. Our tour guide Balazs is very knowledgeable and attentive. We were able to stop by most of the top tourist attractions in Budapest. If you have only one day and know nothing about Budapest, this tour is the way to go.

From Vienna: Hallstatt & Salzburg, Alps & Lakes Day Trip

Sarah_G, May 2026

Fabulous day trip from Vienna

Another fabulous trip booked through Viator. Sophia, our guide, was very helpful and knowledgeable and made sure everyone knew what was happening and when. We stooped off to see the Melk Abbey which is glorious, and then on to Halstatt - a stunning little village on the lake side. We then went to Salzburg and did the walking tour of the Old Town. i can not remember the name of our guide (sorry) but she was really knowledgeable and led the tour at a nice pace. Thank you all

Mauthausen Concentration Camp Day Trip from Vienna

Rose_F, May 2026

We felt it was important...

We felt it was important to visit Mauthausen while we were in Austria. It was a comfortable bus ride to the site and our guide on the bus did a good job of sharing information about Vienna and Mauthausen. Once we arrived, Adam was our tour guide. He did a wonderful job of providing information about the concentration camp, as well as the surrounding villages at the time. We felt fortunate to have had Adam as our guide.

I had a wonderful day trip to Hallstatt on the 11th of this month.

Vienna: Skip the Line Schönbrunn Palace and Gardens Guided Tour

Jaime_P, May 2026

Superb Schonbrunn!

This is a great way to tour the palace and a lot of the grounds. There is a lot of walking from the train station to the entrance of the palace, but there is so much to see and take photos of. Rafaele took us through the palace and the. Through much of the grounds. Then we walked up to the Gloriette on our own. It was easy to take the underground from town to the palace and back to our shop on the Danube.

We had an amazing day in Hallstatt and Brigitte, our local guide in Hallstatt was very good.

We would recommend this tour to all our friends and family back home.

Classical concert Vivaldi 4 seasons in Karlskirche Vienna

Nicole_T, Apr 2026

Lovely music in a beautiful setting

I really enjoyed this performance of The Four Seasons at Karlskirche. The music was beautiful and relaxing, and the church setting made the whole experience feel special and atmospheric. It does get quite cold inside, but they provide blankets, which was a thoughtful touch. Seating is unassigned within zones, so I’d recommend choosing your own seat rather than letting ushers direct you. I was initially placed in a spot with a poor view and had to move. Overall, a lovely and memorable classical music experience in a stunning venue.

Vienna: Classical Concert in St. Anne's Church (Annakirche)

Mitzi_S, Dec 2025

Wonderful experience

The music was very enjoyable. The church is beautiful as well. Come early to get a better seat. The regular seats are not comfortable because of the kneeling area. The seats on the side are more comfortable. It was not hot nor cold in the regular area. It was a little cooler when I moved to the chair on the side.
