What travelers are saying
My clients' least favorite tour of their trip. Tour guide was knowledgeable, but didn't seem to be responsive to their interests. She also walked several steps ahead and projected forward so that oftentimes they could barely hear what she was saying.
Informative and friendly. It was a great way to become acquainted with Vienna and its history upon arriving.
Manfred was an excellent guide, highly knowledgeable and passionate about sharing the city’s history and architecture. Great way to learn about the city during our short visit.
