Hiring Roxanne to show us around Vienna was a wonderful decision. Roxanne tailored our walking tour of Vienna to our family’s needs (some physical limitations). She also was very willing, accommodating, and flexible to find a driver that could drive us since we had someone on our tour with limited walking capabilities. She has a kind and friendly disposition, and wonderful knowledge of the history of Vienna. Her ability to navigate the city and help with translation while visiting a coffee house were extremely helpful. She felt like family by the end of our 3 hour walking tour.What A Gem!

Claudia is very personable and very knowledgeable about the history, architecture, and culture of Vienna. She led us through the highlights of the city and hidden areas for walking and traversing the town that only locals would know. She took us to a wonderful cafe off the beaten path and explained coffee culture in Vienna. She loves her town of Vienna and is enthusiastic about sharing her experiences in the city. She personalized our tour to our desires. We would happily book another tour with Claudia if ever we return. Great Experience

Meine Frau und ich waren beide schon lange nicht mehr in Wien und hatten nur noch relativ vage Erinnerungen an die Stadt. Sandy nahm uns auf unseren Wunsch zu Fuss auf eine 3h Uebersichtstour mit. Für uns war die Tour genau der richtige Einstieg für unseren 4.5 Tage Wien Aufenthalt. Sie hat uns die wichtigsten Seheswürdigikeiten in der Innenstadt gezeigt und uns mit Tips für die restlichen Tage versorgt. Die Tour endete im legendären schwarzen Kameel :). Sandy war eine angenehme und herzliche Reiseführerin.Herzlich

Sandie is great. From the moment she met us in the lobby of our hotel (she was early) we knew we were in for a wonderful day of sight seeing, story telling and food samplings! Sandie offered up a great overview of what the next 3 hours would look, feel and taste like. :) We then proceeded to sample some fine local eats, treats and and drink while walking around the city core and learning about the history of this beautiful city and all the events that influenced the restaurants on the tour Special events are all about the experience and this was a great experience. Thank you Sandie Excellent tour, time well spent

We had just arrived Vienna a few hours earlier and knew very little about the city. Sandie was the perfect host, teacher, friend, information whiz. She catered 3 hours just for us from start to finish. It was a magical introduction to the city.Perfect evening experience

We booked Claudia-Maria for 2 x 1/2 day English walking tours and gave her a list of what interested us. She created a bespoke tour for our group of 10 (ages ranging from 18-80), which included city highlights, the amazing Hundertwasser & Hadid buildings and a guided castle tour. We learned so much about the history of Vienna and even some archeological insight as Claudia Maria is involved in local excavations. She is an amazing guide and would certainly recommend her!Fairytale Castles & Architectural Wonders

I can’t say enough about the superb tour that we were given by Claudia-Maria. She was knowledgeable, funny, warm and personable. We had a particular interest in Art Nouveau and Claudia-Maria tailored the tour to suit our interests. Claudia-Maria has a strong academic background but was able to present the history and culture of Vienna in understandable ways. We discovered hidden gems and came to appreciate many things about daily life in Vienna today. We give our highest recommendation to Claudia-Maria.Great guide gave us a wonderful experience

We booked 3 days (3 hours each) tour with Roxane last week. I shared the interests of the family in understanding the history of Vienna from ancient time to the world wars. She was patient and explained many important historical events and nuances that might not have been recorded in the broadest way. She made our visit to Vienna much more meaningful.

From the moment we met her, Selin's warmth, passion for Vienna, and deep knowledge of the city’s history and culture made the experience unforgettable. She guided us through the most iconic sights as well as hidden gems we would have never discovered on our own. Her storytelling brought every location to life, blending fascinating historical facts with charming local insights. Selin was not only incredibly professional and well-prepared, but also tailored the experience to our interests and pace, and her genuine love for Vienna was contagious. Thanks Selin!!!!An Unforgettable Tour with Selin!

Sandie was a very friendly and enthusiastic tour guide, very engaging with my daughter as well. We hit the highlights of Viennese cuisine and it felt like spending some time with a new friend. The only thing I would say could be improved based on other food tours we've taken is to get a bit more cultural and historical background. Overall definitely recommended.A very relaxed and friendly tour

Susanne war sehr nett und hat uns tolle Lokale gezeigt und interessante Facts zu den Orten oder Wien erzählt. Die ersten beiden Stops waren auch super. Allerdings haben wir dann beim zweiten Stop recht lange gebraucht, sodass wir nach hinten raus zu wenig Zeit hatten, um noch etwas anständiges zu essen. Der dritte Stop war dann in einem Pralinenladen und der letzte ein Café zum Bier trinken. Es war also relativ wenig Essen bei der Tour und das letzte Café wirkte eher zufällig gewählt. Laut Beschreibung hätte es 6x Essen/Trinken geben sollen. Wir sind aber somit nur auf 4 Stops gekommen. Wir kennen das so anders von anderen Foodtouren, vor allem für diesen Preis.Gut, aber zu wenig Foodstops

Roxane hat sich super nach den Bedürfnissen der Gruppe gerichtet. Wollen die mehr weniger, kürzer ..oder noch was anderes wissen. Geschichtliche zusammenhänge wurden witzig in Anektoten verpackt und verknüpft mit was wir schon gesehen hatten -so merkt man sich wirklich was. Wir werden Sie jedenfalls weiter empfehlen- wir haben Sie als Private Führerin genommen, und das war super!!!Wirklich großartig & lustig!

Roxane gave us a wonderful introduction to Vienna. This was our first experience with a personal/local tour guide and I don’t think we will be able to go back to group tours after! Roxane had wonderful communication prior to the tour so I felt at ease with the whole process. Her knowledge of the city was superb and conversation with her during the tour was easy and comfortable. Highly recommended!! Thank you Roxane!Great decision

As this was our first time in Vienna, we chose a City Kickstart tour through Withlocals to get an overview and introduction of what to see. Our local guide, Roxana was amazing! In addition to her bubbly warm personality, she was a wealth of knowledge. In the relatively short time together, we learned more about the history, art, culture and unique aspects we never would have picked up in a large group tour or reading a visitors' guide. Doing this on foot was fanastic as we saw so much and knew exactly where we wanted to return to to spend more time and tour inside. Roxane amazed us with her depth of understanding the history: good, bad and quirky facts that were fascinating to listen to. For someone new to Vienna, this is the experience to start with and Roxane is the one to have it with!Wonderful introduction to Vienna!

My wife and I took a “Kickstart” tour with Roxane on our first day in Vienna. It proved to be a perfect introduction to the city—thanks in large part to Roxane’s knowledge and itinerary. She seems to know everything about Vienna, past and present. She also happens to be a friendly and engaging person, which helps! Extremely knowledgeable guide

A really great experience! Sandie can tell you a lot about Vienna as well as travelling to many other places. In terms of food, there is plenty to eat! It is a good mix of savory and sweet Austrian dishes. It is also a good introduction to the city's center -- this is a great thing to do on the first day of a stay in Vienna, as it will give you a good sense of both the city and the cuisine. Great introduction to Viennese cusine.

Selin gave us a lovely mixture of history and food tastings that introduced us to Vienna beautifully. Our meeting point was not clear, however, so it was frustrating to be waiting for over half an hour in different places around the cathedral, both too worried about moving to look for each other! I suggest giving better instructions or even posting a photo of where to meet, telling clients what you will be wearing..the crowds at the Cathedral made it difficult! We were glad Selin didn't give up on us when our phones were not working and we eventually connected via email. A great tour, very personable and some great food! Laye start, but a good tour.
