Get Sufi as your tour guide! - We took the walking tour with Sigi and really enjoyed it! He took his time to explain everything. Easy to understand in English.

Look... at an imaginary but poignant North. - On the extreme tip of a lakeside promenade, set like a gem in the tiara of Lake Iseo, there is evidence of a time whose vestiges, timidly almost a modesty of yesteryear, appear only to meet curious eyes of them or looks capable of restoring them to life. But suddenly, they quietly lie down, as if to meet the ancestral rhythm of the wave rinse of a fine lake and no longer welcome the extraneous frenzy of all human activity: umbratile destiny and happened, fulfillment and finally perpetual rite of their memory. When here, embraced by all of them, it appears and stands as if it were a treasure chest, the one that is about to welcome those who carry within themselves the abandonment to the flow of their own thoughts: a place of meditated emotion, where it is accomplished that it becomes to be the Wanderer of Time and Perception. Thanks to what will happen to him, what will be given to his Soul Eyes, it will not be discovered but itinerary and common thread of self: revelation of style and hints of ingenuity in every object encountered; reason for amazement because in the presence of complete belonging to the very History of the progress of Art. The welcome of those who welcome, finally encloses the absence of Time in what envelops each guest: let this be an object... a discrete corner... the atmosphere that permeates and governs this place of conviviality... so much so that at each farewell, as the only and possible choice to soothe the inevitable absence, an indelible trace is lost: the certainty of the near future return.

Uncomfortable experience - The tour itself was excellent. So was the River Cruise on which we had an enjoyable lunch at reasonable price. We did not go on walking tour due to heat and knee problems. The staff were good. The reason I have only given it 3 stars is that of the 5 journeys we took only two of the buses had air conditioning. The temperature was in the 90s which made the whole experience very un comfortable.

Bus trip ok but river trip disappointing, - None really. It was a very long slow trip. The river trip was disappointing. We did not go very far. We spent a lot of time waiting in a channel.

Great bus, awful river cruise - The hop on hop off bus was great!! However the nature river cruise was awful. The outside speakers weren’t working and the bench seat was very uncomfortable for an almost 2 hour boring boat trip.

HoHo Vienna big bus - Big scam, i chose this line because of the walk tour and the cruise. They are both a big trap and a scam. The walk tour the guide was mainly talking about coffee shops and tips and prices. The cruise was my worst ever, i chose the river one line B. My first day cruise was canceled without any warning so i went the following day. We spent 5 min in the river then 15 min stopping then he went into the canal. We saw nothing Except ugly graffiti and trees. Then crew said we need to leave the ship. It was so difficult to find the hoho stop. No one adviced that cruise start at stop 11 and should end at stop 8. So upset lost 2 hours ugly experience, if you choose this bus for tour and cruise, my advice they are both so bad.

Very poor. - River cruise all industrial - very boring. Walking tour totally focused on coffee and food not the city at all. Tour guide could also not walk! Commentary on the bus was far from the normal big bus standard, it was very limited. Very disappointing.

Do not use Viator - The fact that prior to the tickets being issued I discovered that even though I had searched for Paris I was given Vienna I contacted Viator and was told that they couldn’t change the booking even though the tickets still didn’t come through for over an hour after I made contact I then tried to change the booking through the bus company which they also couldn’t do as the booking was made via Viator My advise is DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY

Very poor experience - Extremely disappointed. The bus was waiting a long time in each stop. Not good description of places. No air condition in the bus in the temp of 33 degrees. The walking tour (11:30) today was the worst tour we have ever gone to. The tour guide only talked about places to eat and food. In one hour he only showed us two places - so we left after 1 terrible hour. We will never recommend this to any of our friends. Total waste of money.
