Absolutely excellent guide. Must ensure you have a guide with headset to link with your headphones/earpiece, so that he/she can continue talking as you walk through the city. Small enough group to ensure you don’t all clog up the pavement.

This walking tour was excellent. Our guide Dace was great. She shared so much information while on the tour. Very personable and even told us stories about her childhood and the experiences she had growing up in Budapest. We stopped for a couple of snacks and they were great.

Fantastic Tour of Vienna’s Old Town! This guided day tour was absolutely fascinating. Our guide , Dace, was knowledgeable, passionate, and full of great stories that brought Vienna’s history and architecture to life. We walked through charming narrow streets, grand squares, and saw all the highlights . I especially enjoyed the hidden corners and anecdotes about famous Viennese figures of the Habsburg dynasty . The pace was just right, with enough time for photos and questions. A perfect way to discover the soul of Vienna — highly recommended for anyone visiting the city.

Our guide, Dace was great! She was communicative before the tour, was one-time, and she was friendly and knowledgeable. We saw all the major sites in the area, and learned a lot! Dace even showed us some authentic cafes, desserts, and restaurants. We ended up selecting one for dinner and it was amazing. Highly recommend the tour company, guide, and the tour.
