Excellent tour! Excellent tour guide! - Our tour with Samia was on the highlights of our trip to Vienna. She was very knowledgeable of the history of the Palace and it's place in Austrian culture. She was well spoken and polite but certainly made sure we had great spots to view the artifacts. Samia was a pleasure and we highly recommend her!

Private tour is good value for the money - Private tour is the way to go! We learned so much more and enjoyed the Austrian History. Our guide, Ewald, was top notch. He kept us on time and filled the time with much history. I highly recommend.

Excellent and knowledgeable tour guide - Our guide’s in depth knowledge of the history was a highlight. Since it was a private tour, we asked many questions- his answers and additional comments made this a very special experience.

A must do tour ! - Great tour, really informative. Our guide Amela was so lovely and took the time to explain everything about the palace to us. We learnt so much and made the right choice to have a private tour of the palace, with only having 2 days in Vienna we could only do one of the palaces as we had so much else booked in.
Thank you Amela you were the best.

Fun tour experiencing the history of the palace - The multiple rooms showing how the family lived and how each room had a different purpose. Plus seeing all the furniture and artwork that was around during the 1800s

Beautiful Schonbrunn - even in the rain! - We had a lovely tour of all 40 rooms of Schonbrunn. Alex is a good tour guide, especially if you want to consider the stage, theater and design parts of all the rooms. I would have preferred to have read a few of the placards and learned a few more of the general stories about the Hapsburgs. Alex also shared many stories of their humanity and personal proclivities that were very behind the scenes adding another dimension to what we think and how we saw them.
