Maybe curiousity kills the cat- but it also inspires us!!!
Looking behind closed doors, peeping over fassades, finding the way through history - for me this is like knocking on heavens door.
I offer a variety of tours, fully prepared for curious and interested people, but also tailormade for those with special interests.
As a historian, licensed tour guide, globetrotter journalist and writer, I always like to see what's behind the next corner - it could be a surprise!!!
Believe me, Vienna has it all, those hidden secrets, romantic places and dramatic scenery. It's far beyond the obvious. Whether you look for something from the old days - like centuries of empires or human struggles of all kinds, glorious, beautiful, majestic but also horrible - it's all here. If you like to look in to the future, stroll around with me and explore what paths lead us into the 21st century and how this effects Vienna as a city and as a universe. At the intersection between past and future is where we stand right now, keep the moments alive. Moments of timelessness - Vienna has this, too! Those moments that you will still think of when you will be long gone back to your homes. Excellent food and drinks. Deep, sometimes controversial discussions about Europe, Austria, Vienna. That is what I want to offer you and be assured: you will never be bored.

I am a born an raised Viennese, started to work as a guide in Vienna with Northamericans years ago, then I
worked abroad basically with German speaking tourists, and now I am back to the roots! I love to show you around off the beaten tracks and make you see the "wonders of Vienna"!



when we do full day tours or also half day tours where a car is required, I will hire a comfortable cab or minivan with a driver. I can drive cars, but I am not a professional driver. Both car and driver will be included in the price, but no entrance fees

Why not doing a day outside Vienna to explore a totally different landscape? From the Viennese hills we go to the real mountains in the heart of Austria: Salzburg and the surrounding lake district. you will have time to stroll through the historical lanes of Salzburg and experience Mozarts birthtown, once the land of the powerful prince bishops.


Salzburg, nestled between high rocky mountains and divided by the Salzach river. 

Many Americans cherish the town for the "Sound of Music", so you will get a totally private tour where some of the cinematographic highlights can be visited. 

Another must is Mozarts house in downtown or the fortress on top of a steep Rock overlooking the beautiful old town.

Before we head back to Vienna over the motorway in the late afternoon, we might still finish an interesting day in a local beergarden

As you might have seen in my previous tour descriptions, Vienna is full of coffee. It is not only a drink that started out as something very exotic, it is a lifestyle, a culture, a drug for many Viennese - and not only them. I have so many stories to tell connected to coffee, how it found its way to Vienna and why only here it could bear such an immense culture.

We will check out some of the finest and most exciting coffeehouses, we will taste some coffees and also the sweets that should always come with it.
