Meeting point was great, absolutely no issues finding this.
Staff were very friendly and our Guide Pietor took great care of our well being in terms of finding shaded areas due to the heat and a couple of comfort breaks.
Pietor's knowledge was second to none and explained everything really well. He answered all our questions. The tour was very balanced in terms of the facts.
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour and would recommend this if you take a trip to Vienna.

Walking with a scholar of the topic was wonderful. Well done. Highly recommend. Visited monuments and reviewed their history that would not have otherwise been seen or understood.

Thank you to Stefan, our guide! His knowledge, compassion, frankness and clarity in dealing with a sensitive time in Austria’s history was impressive. I especially liked the way he wove the story together illustrating how Austria came into being, evolved and how Hitler came to power. He skilfully told the whole story, right to present day political tensions. I didn’t want the tour to end.
