Additional Information

Explore the city with the fervor of a local resident. With the flexibility of your own itinerary, you can personalize your tour or leave the decision to the local for a comprehensive look into the city’s life. Make your travel journey about the individuals you encounter rather than just the landmarks you visit. With our pedestrian tours, you’ll bypass the usual historical tours and experience the city from a local’s perspective. Enjoy a tour that will alter the way you travel, focusing just as much on the individuals you encounter as the sites you visit. Our local hosts (Lokafyers) are enthusiastic about their hometown and eager to impart their knowledge and views. As Lokafyers aren’t professional tour guides and only offer tours occasionally, they provide an authentic and personal experience, similar to a friend guiding you around their city. By the culmination of the tour, you’ll be familiar with maneuvering the city and confident in having all the vital information for maximizing your visit.

  • Lokafy tours provide a general overview of the city with practical information from a local’s perspective, not detailed historical facts
  • In case travellers would like to include a visit to an attraction, they would need to cover the cost of entrance for themselves and also the Lokafyer (local guide)
  • Tours are entirely personalized, please provide the start time, meeting place and information about you so that we can organize the tour
  • This is a walking tour. We recommend wearing comfortable shoes
  • Operates in all weather conditions, please dress appropriately
  • Children below 3 years old are free of charge
  • Children must be accompanied by an adult

Fabulous tour - Ana made the palace and Maria Theresa come alive. We weren’t just looking at rooms we were hearing the history and significance of the rooms, furniture and pictures. Thanks Ana it was great fun.

Wonderful introduction to beautiful Vienna! - We met Marietta at the Chattanooga restaurant. She greeted me like a long lost brother! Marietta led the 3 of us all over the central parts of the city for 2 & 1/2 hours. She encouraged us to ask questions, & shared many insights & experiences from her years growing up in Vienna. The fact that she had lived in the U.S. for 10 years gave her a broader perspective of Austria & its history. Marietta took us into Demel, a restaurant famous for Kaiser Schmarrn, an amazing dessert described as “scrambled pancakes”, served with plum compote: we watched it being cooked, & made a note to return later to enjoy, which we did more than once! Marietta is a lovely, bubbly lady. She took photos of us at various places, & shared them via WhatsApp, so we didn’t have to take selfies. She also sent us a generous list of suggestions for coffee houses , cafes,, & restaurants that were highly recommended, or near our Airbnb. Danke schon, Marietta 😊🤗😊

Must do! - Our group of 6 loved David! He was funny, very knowledgeable and down to earth. He made sure our requests were included in the private tour and even took us into a local neighborhood market and grocery store to buy local items including chocolate and candy. The 3 hours went way too fast!

Informed but inappropriate guide - Our tour guide was knowledgeable about Vienna and intent on showing us a lot of the city highlights. He provided a lot of historical context. Our issue was the guide was blunt and opinionated. Our meeting spot was a little hard to find and he blamed us for not communicating better with him, even though we had messaged him multiple times and he never responded. Later he started sharing his political opinions and making derogatory statements about the LGBTQ community. We're not interested in hearing or discussing topics like that, especially when we are simply trying to experience a wonderful city like Vienna.
