About this experience
This tour showcases the true beauty of Vienna, which can be seen in its many hidden passages and alleys, places that a visitor cannot find by himself when visiting a city for the first time. Apart from this we present Vienna to you not only from a historical perspective, but we also refer to legends, stories, tragic events and passions of Vienna's famous residents! It is still good, old Vienna, but seen through different eyes, the eyes of an artist. Because Vienna is a city made for artists!
We have enough breaks during the tour, the guide always asks you if you would need a coffee and cake break!
