What are people saying about Vienna

Eric_W, Oct 2026

A lot of sweet, a little savory, a great exploration of Vienna!

Magdeleine was amazing! We sampled sweets at four locations, learned more about the city and navigated to some very interesting neighborhoods outside the city center, and had a great time. This helped us push out of our comfort zone and limited exposure to Vienna outside the city center, without feeling like it was a lot of travel. Great variety of fancy / homey / classic dessert styles, with a surprise savory as well. Cannot recommend more!

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

Maureen_R, Oct 2026

Great way to see the palace!

Booking a guided tour was well worth it. Mario was so knowledgable, kind and passionate during this tour. The palace was crowded, and many other people were pressing thier audio guides to thier ears and having to return to rooms because they missed something. Mario gave us so much information using headsets, we left there with a clear understanding of the history and so many more fun facts than if we did it ourself. He answered all our questions, spoke clearly, walked at a pace the entire group was comfortable with, and as a bonus, he was super funny.

Bay_C, Oct 2026

Food tour worth doing more than once!

This was a Vienna highlight, a perfect way to try the cuisine and learn about history and buildings all at once. Our guide, Elisaveta, was so awesome. She was enthusiastic, charismatic, told stories and history in an engaging memorable way, and her love for Vienna really showed. The food stops were delicious and I felt they were selected so well. Never did I feel like I was going to a bunch of tourist traps. It was places that I would not have thought to try without this tour. The tour is very accommodating to dietary restrictions. The group was size of 12, and I met some other travelers. All in all, I had such a great time I’d probably book it again just for the fun.

Great tour and delicious apple strudel!

Schönbrunn Palace was a highlight of my Vienna visit, with spectacular interiors and gardens. Our guide, Celine, made it especially memorable through her engaging storytelling, expert knowledge of Habsburg history, and fascinating insights into palace life. Wandering the grounds and enjoying apple strudel afterward was the perfect finish. A must see worth several hours.

Wonderful Tour of Vienna with Nikkoletta!

Nikkoletta did an amazing job and covered so many of the historical sites throughout Vienna! It was a great mix of historical and cultural information. The walking pace was perfect and allowed for plenty of time to take pictures. The break at the Cafe Landtmann was a real treat as well where we got to try apple strudel and Sacher torte. Thanks for a lovely tour!

Vienna City Bike Tour

★★★★ The Best Way to Discover Vienna!

Our bike tour with Pedal Power Vienna was absolutely one of the highlights of our trip. Our guide, Horst, was outstanding. He has a fantastic sense of humor, made great jokes throughout the tour, and kept everyone engaged from beginning to end. He also rode very safely and confidently, always choosing the perfect places to stop while making sure the whole group stayed together. What really made this experience exceptional was Horst's incredible knowledge of Vienna. He shared fascinating historical facts, local stories, and hidden details that we would never have discovered on our own. His passion for the city made every stop interesting and memorable. The KTM bicycles were excellent—high-quality, comfortable, and very well maintained. They made the ride smooth and enjoyable for the entire tour. If you are visiting Vienna, don't miss this tour. It is the perfect combination of history, fun, sightseeing, and exercise. We highly recommend Pedal Power Vienna, and a special thank you to Horst for giving us such an unforgettable experience. We would definitely book this tour again!

Super informative small group walking tour of Vienna

It was a very engaging tour, our guide was excellent in anticipating the groups needs, shade at all stopping points. Water breaks, it was 30 degrees. Apart from her deep knowledge of the history of Vienna/ Austria, she was funny and very friendly. I highly recommend her.

Concerts at Mozarthouse Vienna - Chamber Music Concerts

Nancy_M, Jun 2026

Don't miss this concert by exceptional musicians!

Truly wonderful, professional musicians who played Mozart (of course!) in period costumes, Haydn, a lovely Dvorak quartet with a soulful cello part, a bit of Bach and an encore featuring the violist. The music and musicians were outstanding. Not to be missed!
