Hello and welcome, I would be most happy to show you my Vienna: Elegant, full of art and history and at the same time a vibrant and very livable city in the heart of Europe. There are impressive and scenic places to show, countless stories to tell, surprising connections to make. Architecture, famous personalities, the changeable fortune of the city but also the small and "typical" details do make Vienna unique for me. This is exactly why I decided to become a guide. After majoring in political science and German philology at the University of Vienna and many years working for European Union programs I finally turned my fascination for my hometown into my profession. Having completed a two-years training course I passed the Austrian state examination for tourist guides in 2017 and since then I have been a full-time guide offering inspiring tours in the city as well as in many museums. Becoming a guide has been the best decision in my professional life. I simply love sharing my knowledge of Vienna and my enthusiasm for this city with visitors from all over the world and I gladly adjust to the interests of my guests. I focus on overview and themed walking tours as this is the best way to explore and discover the town. From the famous squares to the hidden corners - let's do it together! Licensed Austria and Vienna Guide Masters degree in political science and German language and literature, University of Vienna I am not a driver guide and I focus on walking tours. If wished, I can accompany you in your vehicle or arrange for a separate car/minivan and driver. The price for a car and driver is charged extra.

Discover one of the most beautiful baroque palaces of Austria and Central Europe. Commissioned by the military leader and art lover Prince Eugene of Savoy the Upper Belvedere was built between 1717 and 1723 for representation purposes. The Palace impresses both with its architecture, the surrounding garden, and its unique gallery of Austrian artists. I will show you masterpieces by Gustav Klimt (including his iconic painting "The Kiss"), Egon Schiele, and Oskar Kokoschka from the early 20th century as well as enchanting paintings from the 19th-century Biedermeier period. Together we will immerse in fascinating periods of Austrian art history. Works by Van Gogh, Munch and Monet complement the Austrian Gallery and provide an international context.
Angelika’s tour of the Upper Belvedere was just terrific: she not only provided the history of the palace and the historical era but gave us an extremely interesting and insightful tour of the amazing art collection there. We heartily recommend Angelika and this excellent tour. Thank you Angelika!
