Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Roxane is a nice, fun, person who is very knowledgeable about the activities of the Habsburgs in Vienna from the 17th century onwards. Whether I was walking with her across the city centre, Schonbrunn or Belvedere palace, she was the right person for the job of being my guide."
"Our tour with Selin was fantastic! She has deep knowledge of the culture and the history of Vienna and gave us a fantastic introduction to the city through her story telling. She mixed some hidden gems in with the big highlights, and you can tell she knows everything there is to know about Vienna. She was also able to answer every question we had throughout the three hours and often dived into her archive of photos on her iPad to bring a story to life or show how something would have looked in the past. Fantastic tour, I wouldn't hesitate to book with Selin again next time I'm back in Vienna. Thanks Selin!"
"Lisa Marie is a most personable and well-informed guide and represents Vienna well. Her academic credentials are impeccable and she has a unique ability to relate detailed information about Vienna in a most enjoyable way. She was a great asset to our visit in Vienna."
"Michael was very knowledgeable about the history of the different places around the old part of the city. We loved especially when he would highlight interesting architecture and background of art and landmarks."
"Our two person tour with Lisa Marie was lovely. She was full of historical knowledge, maybe due to a PhD in History!!!! We had such interesting discussions on so many subjects. This tour brought a much valued dimension to our week in Vienna! Thank you Lisa Marie!"
"We only wish we had done the tour when we first arrived. Thanks so much Sandie! "
"Thank you, Roxane, for a great experience! You were wonderful to deal with through the booking stage and the tour you delivered was exactly what we were hoping for, and more."
"Claudia gave us a wonderfully informative tour. We really enjoyed all the information we received. As always “Withlocals” it’s the extra pieces of information that are not in a guide book that make it extra special."
"10/10 for Anita, who looked after our group incredibly well, with Viennese treats in her backpack, local history and current affairs at her fingertips, and plenty of images on file to bring it all to life for us. We finished the tour with drinks at a brilliant rooftop bar, offering great views and another round of photo opportunities. Anita speaks both German and English fluently, making her the perfect guide for our international group. And her sunny smile and great energy make her a pleasure to be with. Our three hours flew by. Thank you! "
"We had an amazing time in Vienna thanks to Sandy. She was very professional, nice and fun to be with. You can tell she loves Vienna, she made our afternoon a memorable one. She was willing to reschedule our tour to the next day because it was raining the day of our tour. Her flexibility was greatly appreciated. Don’t hesitate to book your tour with her, you won’t regret it. "
