The Skip-the-line-Tour is...

The Skip-the-line-Tour is very organized and very entertaining. The tour guide was also very informative and enthusiastic during the whole experience. I recommend this 100% especially for solo travelers. It's a good way to start your stay in Vienna plus get to know the history and culture of the place..🩷

Vienna: Skip-the-Line Schönbrunn Palace & Gardens Tour

Beauty and History Beautifully Woven Together

This tour was one of the highlights of our two week vacation. Our guide, Elma, had great energy and could answer any question that we had. The palace was beautiful and the history was told in fun stories. It was December, so the gardens were not in bloom, but the tour of the grounds was well worth it. If you can only choose one tour, I highly recommend this one. And the cafe was a treat with scrumptious desserts!

Great City Overview With Hapsburg History Lesson

Nicolette was an excellent tour guide and very knowledgeable about the city’s history. She also has a wonderful sense of humor and is honest about what places are worth taking the time to visit and which are overrated or ruined by Instagram. I highly recommend taking this tour toward the start of your time in Vienna so you have the opportunity to visit the places she recommends. Three hour tour included a stop at the largest Christmas market in Vienna at the beautiful Rathaus where we had time for a snack, a warm drink, and to use the WC.

Highly recommended – even by a local Viennese

We 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.

Touring a Beautiful City with Amazing Maria!

This tour was absolutely wonderful! Maria not only showed us the highlights of beautiful Vienna, but she added tips that locals know to help us enjoy our time in Vienna even more, restaurants, the Christmas Markets, districts etc. Her genuine warmth was so appreciated, she obviously loves her city and showing it to travellers. Thank you Maria!!

Vienna City Bike Tour

Kathryn_F, Oct 2025

Biking around town

It was a five star experience. We love bike tours because not only do they take you to the iconic historic sites, but they take you out of the city into the suburbs so that you see parks, and other places of interest. Our guide was extremely informative and was able to tell us a history behind the buildings as well as taking us through Parks And nature. Thank you

Vienna Nights Pub Crawl

Very good value for money...

Very good value for money as you get a free shot with every drink you purchase. There weren’t many drinking games but it was still an enjoyable night as we were able to go to clubs for free and meet people from around the world. Dick Mack’s had a really good atmosphere and cheap drinks (we would love to go back) but the drinks that the second bar were much more expensive.

Concerts at Mozarthouse Vienna - Chamber Music Concerts

Joanne_K, Aug 2025

Lovely evening, just enough classical music.

A lovely experience in a beautiful room. The musicians were so talented and personable. There is an intermission where drinks are available to purchase with cash in the adjacent courtyard. It is a very small room and literally not one more chair can be squeezed in so, plan accordingly.

Vienna walking tour

As a first time visitor to Vienna I found this tour very beneficial. For the 3 hours we got a lot of information and recommendations. Our guide Moritz gave us extra time on the tour due to an 80 year old guest who couldn’t move as fast as the rest of the group. Definitely worth the time and money.
