Jeremy was extremely knowledgeable about Vienna’s history and was engaging. The 3 hour tour flew by. He provided lots of good recommendations for our visit. We would refer others to his tours.

Ute was an amazing tour guide! For our one day (definitely NOT enough time in Vienna!) she really gave us an understanding of Vienna’s history & architecture. Along with sharing insights to food, shopping & many other interesting facts. Highly recommend her & will definitely reach to have her guide us again when we return to Vienna!

    Still thinking of how good the tour was. Jeremy was the BEST!

    Natalie_M, Apr 2026
    If I could change anything about this tour, I wish I could go back and experience it for the first time all over again. Jeremy is THE ideal tour guide. He is so well-educated, cultured, interesting, personable, patient,and genuinely kind. My three teenage sons, husband, and I had one of the best mornings I can recall for a long time. We strolled through the streets of Vienna and learned about it’s culture, political climate, history, architecture, art, and more. He truly gave us some insider information that a mainstream tour would not provide. He was able to cater to our exact interests. His lunch recommendation was soo good! We are going to be thinking about this tour and talking about it for a long time. Thank you, Jeremy!

    Very Informative Tour

    Carole_H, Apr 2026
    Ester was a fabulous tour guide. We had a private tour that was very informative in history, local facts and architecture. Very enthusiastic and articulate. Thanks

    Three hours well spent

    A friend & I had an incredible time touring Vienna with Jeremy. He was a delight. The tour was amazing and gave great insights to the city. I would highly recommend booking this tour.

    Outstanding tour guide.

    Jeremy was fantastic! Very knowledgeable, easy to talk to and fun. Learned a lot and highly recommend this tour and this guide.

    Great tour for families!

    Morgan_R, Jan 2026
    Jeremy was a fantastic guide! We booked the tour with a very short notice because another company canceled on us. It was New Year’s Eve so we were thankful to find another tour company with great reviews. Jeremy didn’t let us down. At the beginning of the tour he asked if there was anything specific we wanted to see, so he catered to us. It was snowy and windy the whole time, but he made sure my kids were comfortable. We even made a quick stop for some hot chocolate and he found a few places where we could sit down for a few minutes to rest and warm up. The city was swamped with people celebrating the new year, but with his expertise, we were able to find quiet streets to avoid the crowds. This was a nice tour to see the sites ands learn about Austrian history!

    Wonderful personalized tour - Eszter was fabulous

    AJ_V, Dec 2025
    Our tour guide was just great (Eszter). She showed us all the highlight and the hidden gems. We really enjoyed the off the beaten path hidden gems. Great mix of history and fun facts. Eszter’s passion and knowledge for history and the city really made the tour special, she even pointed out great restaurants and helped us find a Christmas concert at a local church for the next night.

    Horst was a great tour guide of Vienna for our family! We just arrived to town, so he walked us through old town Vienna explaining the layout, while also providing us the history of the city with important stops. We would highly recommend him!

    Jeremy was our tour guide and he was amazing. He was so much fun and shared so much info in an interesting way. It felt like we were walking around the city was a friend who had all the knowledge we needed. We learned a lot and my whole family loved it. We had kids ages 12-22 and everyone enjoyed it so much. I’d do this tour again!
