What are people saying about Vienna

Gabrielle_M, Jun 2026

Highly enjoyable and enlightening tour with Dieter

Dieter is a wonderful guide. Knowledgeable as well as obviously skillful in conversation around a historical topic of sensitivity. Really enjoyed his tour, learned a lot that can’t be found in history books. Being a history buff, especially of the World War II era and Hitler days, I found the tour very enlightening and enjoyable. Highly recommend it. Thank you Dieter!

Simeon was a fantastic...

Simeon was a fantastic guide. He was knowledgeable, personable, and managed to make everything so interesting that even our 12-year-old was fascinated, which is no small feat when you’re on a tour that lasts 13 hours! At the end of the day, everyone agreed that we would happily do another long tour — if we could have Simeon as our guide. Can’t recommend him, and this experience, highly enough.

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.

Hallstatt a beautiful 16th-century village

It is 300kms from Vienna so an 8am departure arriving at approx 1pm at Hallstatt then depart at 4pm back in Vienna at approx 7.30-8pm. It is beautiful even in the drizzly rain. The amazing history of their salt mining can be seen in the objects and displays in the museum.

Vienna: Skip the Line Schönbrunn Palace and Gardens Guided Tour

Kim_T, May 2026

Worth the visit!

My adult daughter and I absolutely loved this tour--and that was due in large part to our guide, Bilijana. She did such an excellent job of filling us in on the history of the Hapsburg Dynasty keeping it simple and easy to follow. Her stories and knowledge were interesting and she took us from room to room sharing many fascinating details. This was easily one of our best tours on this trip. I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to get a handle on the royals of Austria as well as information on Austrian life in general there. It's obvious that Bilijana loves what she does and the tourist is the beneficiary of that! Oh, and plan to stop in the Gloriette Cafe atop the hill behind the gardens if you have time after the tour.

Hallstatt Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna

TheresaJasmin_W, May 2026

Wonderful Tour

Markus was amazing - he was very punctual, professional and entertaining. He made sure that w le are comfortable and well informed throughout the trip. We had an amazing day in Hallstatt and Brigitte, our local guide in Hallstatt was very good. Even though it was raining we were able to see everything and able to have a proper meal at one of the best restaurants in Hallstatt. 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.
