Great way to be introduced to the city of Vienna by experiencing the first district and learning about the city’s history and culture.

For a first time visitor to Vienna, we were really happy with our tour which provided a nice overview of the history of Vienna, the Ringstrasse, and some of the important things to see within those confines. That our guide, Giselle, could cover so much in two and a half hours was really impressive. We never felt rushed and even had time for a WC break and coffee at the University. We have no hesitation in recommending this tour.

I highly recommend this tour. If possible, make this the first tour on your agenda for Vienna. Give a great oversight 8nto the country and its history. Our tour guide was Dace. She's very knowledgeable and makes a very professional presentation.

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.
