We were fortunate to have such an expert guide in Vienna with Bilijana. Her understanding of Vienna and ability to impart so much interesting information to us was so valuable. She helped make the experience 5 stars. We cannot recommend her high enough, if you’re able to secure a tour with her you won’t be disappointed and you’ll have the ultimate guide experience!

Excellent small group tour. Very easy to locate the meeting spot and headsets were used which is very helpful. Dieter was our guide and he was knowledgeable, paced the tour well, answered questions, stopped along the way if anyone needed water or a bathroom. Great tour overall, highly recommend.
This is the easiest review I've written. Great tour with a great guide. Michael was knowledgeable and happy to answer questions. His style was conversational and it was like touring with a friend. This was our first visit to Vienna and this was a great introduction to the city enabling us to decide what to see in more detail. Based on our experience, I would not hesitate about booking with this company.
This walking tour was so much more than we have experienced on similar tours on our travels. Our guide, Eddie, was extremely knowledgeable, humorous and shared with us so many interesting things about what we were seeing that made our time with him fly by. I highly recommend this chance to get a real sense of Vienna, its history and its culture.
Andy was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable and engaging. We were 4 in the group which was ideal. I think a small group is excellent and well worth the extra money. I would highly recommend.
Wien is a imperium of 600 years..culture. mondial clasic music,..pace, world of baroc, rococo , palace ,emperor , emparatrice..Sissi..Franz Josef
Inga was a terrific tour guide! She really knows her history! She taught us so much more than we expected! With come away, feeling confident and relay some of the wonderful history that Vienna offers. The sites, the reasons, the aftermath, etc.. You'll be in great hands! Enjoy!
Vienna in January is COLD! Outside of the obvious weather obstacles, our tour-guide Billy was phenomenal! She met us promptly at our hotel, provided ear pieces so we could clearly hear her as we walk the city without needing to raise her voice and blend in. We walked for three hours around many of the most important sights of central Vienna, popping into buildings periodically to thaw. She was very well informed and had been such a guide for over 20 years. She was very kind, flexible and approachable. In my view, this was the best way to experience Vienna with limited time!
Our guide was so informative and knowledgeable. I had read much about Vienna but learned so much more. Highly recommend this tour.
This tour was well worth the added expense due to the personalized service. A small group tour is the way to go. The guide was very informative.
We had a wonderful tour of Vienna’s Old City. Michael was our guide. He was extremely knowledgeable and funny. Visited many of the historical sites. We highly recommend this tour and ask for Michael!
This was a great experience seeing the sites and learning some history about Vienna. The tour was worth it. My father had a mobility scooter and he was able to get around just fine. The streets and sidewalks accommodate people that need mobility devices.
I had an amazing tour of Vienna with Ana, and it was truly unforgettable. From the stunning architecture to the rich history, Ana brought the city to life in a way that made everything feel practically magical. She was incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, making every stop engaging and fun. Whether it was the grand palaces or hidden gems, the tour was the perfect way to experience Vienna. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting!
This was incredible. This tour company is so good and so accommodating. There was a system glitch and it ticketed me for a tour that was full. They contacted me early and offered a tour just for me as a solo traveler. Edi was the best and I learned so much about Vienna. Book anything with Good Vienna Tours!
Walking the old city with Lisa was a pleasure. She is easy to listen to and very knowledgeable about history and the current context. Highly recommend!
I had an amazing experience on my walking tour. First, I missed my original appointment due to my flight being delayed so the organizers were very good about allowing me to change my tour to later in the week. Next, my guide was amazing. She not only showed me all the major historical and cultural sites in Vienna, but also familiarized me with stories, hidden places to visit and eat, buildings where Mozart had lived and even small pieces of information about living in Vienna that made me feel more comfortable in the area. I highly suggest this tour if you want to feel comfortable walking around the city and getting the best advice about places to spend your time visiting. My guide was so friendly and knowledgeable, the whole experience felt like walking around Vienna with a longtime friend.
History of Vienna compounding and its position in Europe for so long added to the walk which Eddie did so well
The Walking tour was great. Our guide was very knowledgeable, easy-going, joked around and connected with every traveler in the group.
Great tourist guide, very knowledgeable and fun. Highly recommend hiring this agency to enjoy a tour in Vienna. We enjoyed almost 3 hours walking around the city center.
Very good experience - make sure you take an umbrella in winter if it rains. Dont take too heavy baggage
Ali was a phenomenal guide! Her thorough and in-depth knowledge of Vienna was amazing and made the historical and cultural sites we toured in the city come alive. We highly recommend this personalized, small group tour experience because we could spend a little more time on the things we found especially interesting. In addition to seeing the must-see attractions, Ali showed us some off the beaten path hidden gems and we lucked out when we got to see the Lippizzaner horses being walked to their stalls. Thanks again for a great start to our Viennese adventure!
I experienced this free tour run by Good Vienna on the advice of the lovely ladies of the Touris Info Office. We di a circuit of the very centre of the Hhistoric district an Eddy our guide had a lot of information which you can use to springboard to othé activities. An excellent way to familiarize yourself with area.
What a lovely little tour! It went to all the places off the beaten path with little gems that we would’ve never found on our own. Biljana was a great tour guide and very engaging asking questions of us along the way! We saw her favorite stops with history that was easy to understand and not overwhelming. Great chances for a restroom and interesting fun facts. Highly recommend!
It was a good walking tour, guide shared a lot of good information , saw a lot of cool places. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to explore Vienna on foot.
As first time visitors, we found this to be a great introduction to Vienna, its exquisite architecture and colorful history. Highly recommend.
Excellent tour with Antonia. She was friendly and knowledgeable giving us information about the history of Vienna in an entertaining manner. She also provided nice recommendations on things to do and places to go the remainder of our time in Vienna. Highly recommend starting your stay with this tour.
Siri was a fantastic guide. She customized our private tour to cover the subjects we found most interesting. We learned more during our time with her that could have imagined. I would highly recommend this tour to start your stay in Vienna.
Michael our guide was inspirational as well as entertaining with his vast knowledge of Vienna. Certainly recommend to anyone who wishes to learn about the fascinating history of this wonderful city
The BEST walking tour ever! Our guide Bilijana was engaging, professional and good humoured. Furthermore she was an expert and able to provide commentary in an easy to understand way. The tour was also at a very relaxed pace. We not only experienced the main attractions but were also fortunate to see some 'out of the way' places which were great. Highly recommend this tour.
Our tour guide, Eddie, was wonderful. He has lived in Vienna for decades and knows the city well. He asked about our interests (we knew nothing about Vienna in advance)- and tailored the tour to us. He had plenty of recommendations for restaurants, entertainment, etc. Overall a great orientation to the city- perfect activity for your first day!
Lisa was amazing as a guide. She had extensive knowledge about the history of Vienna and lots of funny antidotes.
My friend and I have been on many Viator tours. This one was the only one that we have been extremely disappointed. We paid $245 for a 2 hour tour that did NOT go into 1 single building. All we did we walk and the tour guide pointed things out. This tour should have been $100 for we did not get anything that we could not have gotten on line. I would like to request a partial refund for this terrible tour. This is certainly not up to the Viator standards.
Julia was outstanding. She was very knowledgeable and accommodating. We now have an overview to tour Vienna on our own.
I can’t say enough good things about our tour guide. I loved the museum and would have loved to have had more time there! The greeter with green umbrella was so welcoming and easy to find! Everything we saw was enhanced by her knowledge and her ability to share !!!! Most of all I so appreciated that she ran ahead to buy subway fare for the 3 of us and got us to our shuttle with only minutes to spare. Thank you for a phenomenal time!!!
This was an amazing tour. The leader was very experienced and knowledgeable. She lived in Vienna 30 years and was able to share so much about the city. I would take the same tour again.
Anna’s presentation was excellent. There were only 3 of us. She was very attentive and kind. She answered all of our questions thoroughly.
Our tour guide was kind and knowledgeable. We were a bit surprised to realize though that she charged us $20 each to book our concert tickets at the Kursalon Music Hall.
Great tour guide but very expensive cost. We reserved the tour and paid $240 for two persons. The information about the tour modified to state that no lunch is included.
An excellent tour by the very interesting Eddie ! A really good introduction to the history of Vienna and a lovely walk around the old city. With so many tips for things to do from a local we have plenty to do for the remainder of our stay here..
What a delightful and fascinating tour—our guide, Anastasia was terrific! She covered so much history effortlessly, and with many funny stories.
Simply the best way to learn about a new city is to take a small group tour. Discovering the history of the area and buildings, plus visiting hidden away gems that you’d never know about otherwise.
What a wonderful unique tour we had with Biliana! An indispensable start to our Vienna stay, fascinating insight into this beautiful city.
Definitely recommended. Great way to get to know the city. Our guide was knowledgable and friendly. 5 stars!
We took the trip within a few hours of hitting the city. Best way to see the sites and get some solid history - Mona Lisa was awesome! It was just myself and two friends so we had a private tour and she didn't let us down. Was also open to just hanging and having a glass of wine with us. Highly recommend the tour - a great way to start our vacation.
Highly recommended! It was amazing experience, guide Lisa was so knowledgeable and professional, and went behing and beyond her agenda! Great experience and unforgetable memories! Thank you Lisa- Monalisa😊
Excellent walking tour! She was very knowledgeable and personable! Enjoyed it thoroughly! She was kind of a history buff on Austria going back to the Romans!
The lovely Italian guide was a Venitian treasure. So much wonderful information and energy. She told us about the apartments in the imperial palace area and we want more information please.
A fantastic historical tour. Anne was our guide. She explained the origins of Vienna. But she really focused on the Habsburgs and the direction they took the city. Really entertaining and informative. Anne is a great story teller. One of the best tours we've taken throughout Europe.
We expected very little but the tour was absolutely brilliant !!!! Antonia was 12 out of 5 stars 🌟. Unbelievable how informative and smart in History she is ! Anytime again and then some !
I had 1 day free time in Vienna (side trip) before I move on to Salzburg. I booked this walking tour to have a glimpse of the city even for a short time. Siri (tour guide) is knowledgeable about the places and history which I definitely appreciate. I had a great time! Thanks!
