“On our first trip to Vienna, we wanted a guide to introduce us to the city. Having followed this guide on social media and appreciated his helpful posts, we thought he would be most helpful. I mistakenly signed up for the wrong tour but was told the tour could incorporate whatever we wanted. I expressed that we wanted the initial introductory tour in writing. Also that stairs and long walking was very difficult for us. The day of the tour we were a little disorganized, having arrived the day before and rested. The hotel lobby was busy and my friends accompanying us were late. I was not clear and did…”

Explore three private Viennese wine cellars, taste local wines and snacks, and uncover a side of central Vienna most visitors miss.

“Overall, the tour was interesting, the wine was yummy, and our guide was super knowledgeable and nice! It was fun to get to see places that not everyone has access to on a regular basis. Reasons for a 4 instead of a 5: We signed up for the tour, as it said the languages would be German and English. We were the only English speakers, so the guide said she planned on doing the tour in German, but she would take us to the side and do an English version for us. It honestly worked OK that way, as we still got the historical knowledge, etc; however, I think we…”

We got to try 11 delicious desserts along with some great coffee. And in the midst of this, we sat down for a proper dinner and a tasty beverage. We were so full after the dinner, that we had to get a takeaway box for our final desserts. Do this tour…you will not…”
