“Alex wasn’t an excellent tour guide. His stories and facts helped bring the palace, Sisi, the Hofburgs, and all the sights to life. It’s obvious he went above and beyond. Would highly recommend!”
See Habsburg crowns, jewels, sacred relics, the Holy Grail and unicorn horn inside Vienna’s Imperial Treasury at the Hofburg.

Tour Vienna’s Hofburg, Sisi Museum, imperial apartments, Augustinian Church, and palace courtyards with an engaging local guide.
“This tour was wonderful and I would happily recommend it. Anna, our guide, was so friendly and pleasant, so knowledgeable on the topic and gave a thorough and professional tour, taking into account individual abilities. This was so much better than using an audio guide as you could ask questions and Anna gave lots of hints and tips on other things to do / places to go in the locality. I will definitely book another of tours given by this organisation in the future.”

Compare Rubens, Rembrandt, Raphael, and imperial crowns in Vienna with one flexible ticket for two remarkable museums.
“Excellent experience at the museum. The section on Paintings was phenomenal and had the most crowds around the 'Tower of Babel'. It's not too difficult to spend a couple of hours at the museum and then be back for more. Word of caution: avoid carrying (if possible) your rucksack, water bottle, or selfie sticks as you will end up having to park those at the cloak room.”

Tour Vienna’s Sisi Museum, Hofburg Palace, courtyards, and gardens with timed entry, a guide, and a useful introduction to imperial history.
“1) Our guide, Rene, was outstanding in his knowledge and attitude/enthusiasm. He brought history to life with joy, managed the group adeptly and brilliantly, and ensured that we all left better educated. You will be fortunate to get him as your guide! 2) The Sisi museum had wonderful displays and artifacts. Only downside is that it was unnecessarily dark (lack of proper lighting) in much of the exhibitions. Perhaps it was done so for dramatic effect, but it went too far. If you expect to see rooms elegantly, historically furnished you will be grossly disappointed with Hofburg. Except for a couple of rooms left enact, most of the palace has…”
