I'm Raphael G., your private tour guide in Vienna
Guide #46895
Hello! My name is Raphael and as you can probably guess Vienna is the most interesting city in the world. Like every other city. But Vienna is special to me because it is the place where I was born and raised. It's also the place where I have been doing tours for tourists for the last ten years. Originally I studied to become a teacher of history, but it is so much more fun to discover history in the city than in a class room. Also: fewer exams (which, surprisingly, means that people pay more attention). In all my tours I try to connect the past with the present and show that people back then where not so different from people nowadays - give or take a daily shower. All my tours are suitable for children. If you tell me in advance, I will put back in all the bits that usually scare the adults. If you are a teacher, all the tours are also suitable for school or student groups and I will happily modify them to emphasize any topic of your choosing.

Rafael was amazing and made our short time in the city (10 hour layover) a completely stress free day. He met us at the airport and really gave us an amazing day and showed us so much. He was a fountain of knowledge and kept it interesting for my 3 kids. I was amazed at all the history and facts he knew. He had his tour that he usually does but he was flexible to stop...
Robert O.May 2026We had an informative and impressive tour with Rafael. In addition to seeing lots of stunning architecture throughout the city, we learned the historical backgrounds of the various rulers and their families, and had fun and engaging dialogue with Rafael. He is an articulate, considerate and funny guide!

Raphael’s tour on the Roman history of Vienna was a very interesting percoective on the city. Walking to each edge of the city borders at that time abd standingvwith it beneath one’s feet especially illustrated an understanding of that wirkd, brining it to life. Tip: when taking this tour, schedule it earlier if you can, away from the pedstrian imoacts of rush hour.

Our tour with Raphael was superb. He did a great job of covering equal parts history, culture, architecture, gastronomy and current events. On multiple occasions, we noted how "we never knew that" and came away very impressed. Would highly recommend him as a guide.
