Barbara is a great guide. We covered a lot, from the Hofburg palace, Sisi rooms and museum and specially Imperial Treasry. Learned a lot about the history of Austria and the Habsburg family. Also gave us great pointers on our walk of the old town all the way to the Cathedral.

First, I want to thank the local organizers to accommodate is so quickly. We booked the tickets and saw no option for language. When we received the tickets, the guided tour was in Spanish. We needed English!! We had no problem, getting an English speaking guide, even tho it said no changes can be made with less than 24 hr. notice. Thank you for providing us with a great experience. Secondly, I want to thank our wonderful guide , Angelika. She was our personal guide through the castle, the museum and the Treasury. Her explanations and recommendations for after the tour were fantastic

Seeing these places with a private guide just for my family was great. I believe you learn more and have a better experience with a guide.

Sayed was excellent. Incredibly knowledgeable, with so much information and great stories about the Hapsburg family. We loved his attention to detail, sense of humor, and seemingly endless expertise. Sayed even generously took us on an impromptu walking tour Innere Stadt after our tour of Hofburg! All around a great experience. Can’t recommend Sayed enough.
