Our Vienna tour guide - Our tour guide was very informative and we learned a lot. I would definitely recommend this for whoever wants to learn about Vienna. She showed us not only the historical and monuments of Vienna, but also where the locals shop and eat. She knows her ways around the city and goes beyond to get you inside places that are usually huge lines.
She was kind enough to give us a gift which actually came with a lot of information about Vienna. Thank you!

Great Tour of Vienna - This was a wonderful tour. It is overwhelming to begin touring Vienna because there is so much to see & learn. The Fall in Love with Vienna tour is a terrific introduction because it allows you to focus on where you want to spend your time. Additionally, our tour guide Nicoleta goes above & beyond with commentary & a prepared handbook of facts about & recommendations for Vienna.
Her devotion to Vienna is clear. It was quite eye-opening to find that after a morning with Nicoleta, we were convinced that Vienna just might offer the nicest life of any city in the world.

Highlight of our trip! - Nicoletta was wonderful! She was funny, engaging and gave us packets with chocolates and lots of great info including all her recommendations which was super helpful!
We arrived in Vienna to see the Taylor Swift concert and were so disappointed when we heard about the cancellation. Nicoletta’s tour was the perfect way to shake it off and shift our focus back to this amazing city and enjoy its incredible history.

Perfect way to start our trip to Vienna - The private walking tour was the absolute BEST way to see and learn about Vienna on day 1. We had my wife, 15, 12, and 8 YO with me, and all enjoyed!!
Lots of ground and history to cover, but was absolutely worth it, and the snacks along the way were popular to all!
