Vienna Private Walking Tour
This walk brings you through all four historic quarters of Vienna's old town. Experience over a thousand years of history and stroll through hidden alleys right behind the main sights. See more than just the usual tourist streets, walk through hidden alleys and historic inner yards. This walk will combine the roman and medieval Vienna, the imperial glory under the Habsburgs, the (also quite literally) dark years in the 20th century and also will let you experience modern Vienna, that is once again the city in the very heart of Europe. It will not just be a dry line of numbers and information, instead I will show you also the funny side of Vienna's history and the absurdities this old town hast to offer. Can't hurt having a laugh. After all you are not on a school trip. If you happen to book this tour as part of a school trip then we will adjust :)

Start and end point of our walk will be the almost 900 year old cathedral in the very center of the old town . From here we will start our walk theough the old town of Vienna. The cathedral is considered to be the very center of Vienna and also her main sight. So it only makes sense to take Saint Stephen's cathedral as the Controller point of our walk.
Neuer Markt
The very old "New Market" square. Actually the second oldest marlet square but nobody ever bothered to come up with a new name in the last 800 years.
Albertinaplatz
The square with the memorial against war and fascism in between the State Opera building and the Hofburg, the old imperial palace. Also the famous Hotel Sacher and the Cafe Mozart can be found right there.
