Romantic Old Town private tour in Vienna, 2 hours with a guide, starting at Hoher Markt and the Anchor Clock, plus the Greek Quarter and Jesuit quarter.
“Schöner Rundgang - der Guide war nett, aber etwas zu redselig- mehr Wiener Schmäh als fundiertes historisches Wissen. Trotzdem zu empfehlen!”
Relaxed 2-hour walk through Vienna’s Baroque center, linking Hofburg, Opera, Albertina, and St Stephen’s with local stories.
“Herbert made the Hapsburgs come alive, as he walked us through their generations of rulers and sprinkled the political history with anecdotal stories . A perfect pace of walking, sitting, stopping and talking. Like the most interesting history of Europe of those 700 years.”
A 2-hour Hallstatt photo walk with Edwin Husic. Lake viewpoints, quiet paths, the Bone House, and at least 30 edited photos in 24 hours.
“We had a wonderful time with Edwin. The tour was informative & we really enjoyed the photo shoot and were very impressed with his photography skills. Would highly recommend!”

Private Vienna to Prague transfer with flexible 2-hour sightseeing, air-conditioned ride, English driver, bottled water, and door-to-door convenience.
“Radek was an amazing English speaking driver and he knew so much about Prague. He arrived on time and was happy to customize the drive with various stops. Radek was just as good as many of our tour guides. After our drive from Vienna, he followed up with recommendations on sites to see in Prague. Wonderful experience! Thank you!”
Private Vienna to Salzburg transfer with an English-speaking driver, air-conditioned comfort, and a customizable sightseeing stop for about 5 to 6 hours.
“We booked this transfer on a day when it snowed a lot! We were unable to make our planned stop in Hallstatt due to the conditions of the road. Our driver was lovely, kept up a great attitude and did his best with the tough weather - he got us all safely to Salzburg which is the most important thing! But - obviously we were disappointed that the day did not go as planned and we spent much longer traveling in the car than we had hoped. We received great customer service and they really tried to pivot to salvage the day. So- I'd recommend this only during milder weather…”
Private air-conditioned transfer from Vienna to Budapest with an English-speaking driver and optional 1- or 2-hour sightseeing stops en route.
“Well worth the money. We asked our driver to stop at Bratislava/Slovenea which was a great addition to our road trip. Car was roomy and clean. Driver spoke English and was informative.”
2-hour Danube panorama cruise from Pier 6, looping past DC Tower, Millennium Tower, and Danube Tower. Cruise-only, multiple departures.

A 2-hour private walk through Vienna’s Greek Quarter legends and Art Nouveau facades, from Stubentor near Dr Karl Lueger to drop-offs near Lugeck or Parliament.
“Our two hour guided tour by Nicol went very smoothly. She was very friendly and willing to answer all our questions and concerns. We were guided to the Greek neighborhood of Vienna (churches, taverns, printing houses, etc.) where Greek merchants and intellectuals were active in the 18th century. He also presented us architecturally the facades of several buildings as well as secret passages of the area that are not easy to discover on your own. At the end of the tour he gave us a map of the historic center of Vienna with illustrations of the buildings which was very useful for us on our routes around the city. We…”
Private 2-hour Vienna highlights by car, customizable route with an English-speaking driver, see Hofburg, St. Stephen’s, and key palaces.
“Fantastic! Iva was an amazing guide and did not limit the tour to two hours. Iva picked us up on time and brought us back to the airport on time. We saw everything we had hoped to see with great explanations about each site.”
Private Vienna to Budapest transfer with a 2-hour sightseeing stop. Door-to-door pickup, English driver, air-conditioned comfort, water included.
“It was an easy transport with six people with luggage and with a stop in Bratislava. He was quiet but friendly. If you are expecting a tour guide you will be disappointed but if you are expecting a door-to-door transport with sight-seeing break in between, this is it!”
Pick a night, a palace, or a direction out of town.
