Hello, nice to have you surfing here on my public profile with ToursByLocals! My name is Adrienn, your certified local Vienna guide, your ViennaWALKER, your ViennaMUSEUMS-and PALACE-guide across the huge array of this exceptionally great city's sights. My guiding career began in 2008. Since 2012 I have been the personal Vienna guide of the most well known travel writer of the United States specializing on European travel and have helped him and his team updating the new editions of his Vienna guide books ever since. I have led not fewer than thousands of tours with small parties of travelers over the years. I was born in 1975. I majored in human sciences at the University of Vienna and graduated in 2000. After having completed my university studies I decided to become a guide for my beloved city and completed the training on the first try by a series of successful state exams 2 years later. Since then I have been working as a licensed, state approved local tour guide making tourists from lots of different countries acquainted with the cultural heritage and the rich history of the Austrian capital Vienna, the unique city I have the privilege to live in. Being a mom of five kids (some of them having grown to young aduts in the meantime though :)) enables me to suitably meet the interests and requirements of families as well while making an attempt to explore Vienna. I am specialized in personal private tours provided for small to medium-sized parties on mostly walking tours but I also cooperate with a fun electric old-timer vehicle. A substantial part of my tours is given outdoors however I act as an enthusiastic guide in indoor sights like in museums, galleries and palaces as well. I tailor all tours to your specific needs and wishes. I am looking forward to arranging your private tour in Vienna and I really would like you to fall in love with this lovely city not just to see it! Just contact me so as to get more information. I will answer your request as soon as possible. I have a university background, having graduated from the Vienna University long long time ago, :))) back in 2000. I am holding a Human Science Major. I am furthermore a licensed tour guide of Austria / Vienna and proudly wear my "austriaguide" badge while at work. I can look back on thousands of tours since 2008. Beside being a busy mom I regard tour guiding my main profession. During the pandemic, so as to utilize the time without travelers I became a certified yoga instructor. Another dream came true.

Overview of your Vienna tour

This tour focuses on the highlights of the Kunsthistorisches Museum of Vienna, a museum I truly treasure in my heart: having former private collections on display amassed by several art-loving members of the Habsburg dynasty in the course of a couple of centuries. The museum showcases a unique former private collection comprising one-of-a-kind works of art. The greatest focus will be laid upon the picture gallery which is (being the sister of an academic painter as well as the mom of an artist) very close to my heart. It's absolutely worthwhile a visit as the collection enables me to show you the development of European painting from the Renaissance period up to Classicism. I promise you a memorable experience while wandering through this picture gallery, the fourth largest in the world. This tour begins right in front of the museum.

Adrienn made the Kunsthistorisches Museum come to life. A beautiful museum that she was able to show us the highlights in 4+ hours. She shared a wealth of knowledge (in a fun way) about the pieces/paintings that without her guidance, we would not have had a clue about. 4 hours seemed like minutes- we highly recommend Adrienn!

Adrienn was incredibly knowledgeable of Vienna art history and Vienna history in general. She provided numerous facts and little known facts about the paintings and artists. We had a great time.

Adrien gave a wonderful, informative tour with insights into both the beautiful architecture and to the paintings inside the museum. We learned art history and her narration brought the museum alive to us. David Berry

Adrienn provided a comprehensive highlights tour of the Kunst museum. She brought along her iPad with additional materials to provide broader perspective on many of the pieces. I think this would be an excellent tour for those without an art history background- it made the art very approachable and fun. I highly recommend this tour and Adrienn!

Adriann not only educated us about Vienna and its contributions to the world of art, she rolled out the red carpet and whole-heartedly gave us Vienna with great love and passion. Aside from her superb knowledge of art, music and the history of Vienna, she was also helpful in our navigation of the city on our own. We felt very taken care of by Adrienn. She is an example of personalized hospitality at its finest. Her love for her home is clearly evident in her craft.
