We loved our Private Vienna Ghost Tour and our guide, Lisa! She had the very best stories and we had so much fun walking around and learning about Vienna history. We saw many different sites and she had interesting information on everything. The pace of the walk was great, and she took the time to answer our questions. I would recommend Lisa to anyone, she has great energy and made the tour so enjoyable!

There was a glitch. The tour operator never got the booking from Viator. We showed up on tine but no one ever met us. She called later after getting my texts to apologize and said she never heard from you. We were very disappointed!!!
Response from Host, Aug 2024
Hi Anne, I'm so sorry again for what happened. I spoke with Viator again after we talked, and you should already have been reimbursed for the tour. I deeply apologize for the miscommunication and inconvenience and especially the disappointment your grandkids must have felt! I hope you were still able to have a nice time in Vienna.

Lisa was the best!!!! She had remarkable energy and told us the most fascinating secrets of Vienna. She was a wealth of knowledge in regard to the tour and additional travel tips. My entire family loved this experience and we would highly recommend this tour to anyone!

What a wonderful tour of creepy/spooky Vienna. Lisa was phenomenal! She is so engaging and great at story telling, my two kids were discussing the stories till the next morning. The hour and a half flew like a breeze. Some of the stories were deliciously frightening!

Our English speaking guide Lisa was very knowledgeable & friendly. We enjoyed the tour with her & would highly recommend it.

If the concept of a Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour sounds even a little fun to you, I want to wholly endorse this tour. I have taken a lot of private tours, and Lisa's was one of the most memorable and just flat out *fun*. For my wife and I, this was due to two separate components, the content of the tour and the guide.
The content is spooky, fun, and most of all SURPRISING. Vienna is beautiful and regal, but the fact is that it's been a major city in Europe for a very long time, and some downright creepy stuff happened in this city! I really don't want to spoil any surprises, but I was surprised enough to explain out loud several times. You will stop at places whose story has permeated pop culture, created icons, and they make up part of an incredible historical fabric.
The guide we had, Lisa, was one of those people that radiated fun, a real joy in her weird Spooky city, and absolute competence in her craft. I found myself completely drawn in to her stories, and as a testament to her ability, it never felt contrived or forced, it was story after story that weaved together. She is an absolute top tier guide. Lisa also provided us with other general information about the city which was really great!
If you're on the fence about this tour, ask yourself: "am I in the mood to see spooky, weird and offbeat stuff, in Vienna, with an awesome host?" If you are, the decision to take this tour is easy.

Hi Eduardo, thank you for writing the best review I’ve ever gotten!!!:) I had such a blast showing you and your wife all the creepy sides of Vienna! And I’m honored that you took so many pictures especially since you said you usually never take photos on tours! Yay! Thank you so so much again!

The Private Spooky Vienna Tour is a great way to see the city and learn about its history at the same time.
Lisa was an awesome guide who is very knowledgeable about the history of the city but is also very engaging and kept our entire group entertained with insights into both the past and present.
I would highly recommend this tour, especially if you enjoy learning the darker side of history!
Response from Host, Feb 2023
Thanks so much for your kind review Vincent!!! I had a great time with your group as well :)

Lisa was our tour guide and she was absolutely brilliant! Ghost stories are up to you to believe but she sure makes it interesting besides her knowledge about the history of Vienna is commendable!
She is like a doctor with solutions to all your what, where, when and how!!

Hi Ritwik! Thank you so so much for your sweet review!! I loved showing you and Jenny the spooky side of Vienna too!:)
Anushya_R, Jun 2022
I live in Vienna and had friends visiting - I knew I wanted to do something different while also having it be informational and interesting - and I hit the jackpot here! Lisa is enthusiastic, warm, a wonderful storyteller, and incredibly knowledgeable. The stories were 'spooky' of course but also contained rich history. Highly recommend!
Response from Host, Jun 2022
Hi Anushya! Thank you SO much for this sweet review! I had so much fun with your group :)

We really enjoyed this tour, Lisa was an amazing guide, super enthusiastic, knowledgeable and always ready to answer any question. In this tour we heard lot of stories about Vienna's spooky past while visiting the centre and learning lot of history about the city. I'd really recommend this tour if you want to visit the centre of Vienna from a different perspective and if you are a fan of spooky stories which probably you wouldn't hear during a usual tour.

Die Geistertour ist mehr als zu empfehlen und war eine der besten Führungen, die ich jemals gemacht habe. Neben der tollen Stadt und den abenteuerlichen Gruselgeschichten war dies auch zu einem wesentlichen Anteil unserem sensationellem Guide Lisa zuzuschreiben, die unsere siebköpfige Gruppe mit einer irren Euphorie durch die Stadt manövriert hat. Witzig, abwechslungsreich und keine Sekunde Langeweile. Kann man blind buchen. Die fränkische Truppe war total geflashed :) Gerne wieder!
Response from Host, Jul 2022
