Informative, knowledgeable and amusing in parts. An excellent experience - The walking tour was excellent and our guide Christina Marie was first class. Very knowledgeable and yet showed lovely personality with a sense of humour. I would highly recommend her.

Ameno and interesting - We did the tour with Johan and we loved it, he explained a lot about the city and the history of it, so we could understand the locations we visited. It made me very enjoyable and interesting, I recommend it

A walk into history. - We did the Vienna 1900 tour and it was outstanding. I really wanted to better understand the Austro-Hungarian empire and the reasons for its break up. I also knew very little about Austria and both the first and second world wars. Our guide Christina was absolutely excellent. She made the history come alive and in just two hours I got to learn so much more about this country and its history.

Excellent city centre tour - This might be the best city tour I've ever done. Christopher was knowledgeable, engaging, and funny. The information he shared was a very well-balanced mix of people, society, politics, culture, etc. The stops were well picked, and the packing was just right. Can't recommend this enough.

THEY DIDN'T SHOW UP! - We had the tour contracted at 5.30 and they did not show up or warn. After waiting 15 min we opted to leave. There were other dicks waiting and they hadn't been warned either.

Totally expendable for what they show you - I find it a shame touring, mainly for the duration is excessively short and only visits hofbueg and st Stephens. It doesn't even go through city hall operates karlskorche and neighborhood museums. I think an additional hour would suit you better so that you can assess Vienna as a whole a little more. The nice Guide but without enough historical training for a city like Vienna. I am tired of doing Free tours in cities and it is appreciated that someone with an academic background in history explains what you are seeing and historical context in which facts unfold. Vienna is a very wide city to see it all on Free tour but well another hour to the tour could not hurt.

Disappointing - The Guide (who was not or spoke good Spanish) decided that with 12 people he did not go out and that we could meet with 2 guides with a group of 100 people. A nonsense...
