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.

On this combined tour you will discover one of the world's most important art collections as well as the treasures of the House of Habsburg. We start at a stunning palace for the arts - Vienna's Kunsthistorisches Museum (KHM). Opened in 1891 here the art collections of Austria's former rulers found a worthy exhibition venue. In the Picture Gallery, you can view paintings by Titian, Bruegel, Duerer, Vermeer, Rubens and other Old Masters. After our exploration of KHM we continue our tour in the Imperial Treasury Vienna which is situated in the Hofburg Palace. The treasury is a truly unique museum, the only one which shows a nearly complete set of medieval coronation insignia and regalia. The crown of the Holy Roman Empire and the crown of the Habsburg Emperors are displayed here. Reflected in further priceless objects and stunning artefacts is a millennium of European history. Let me guide you through a world of arts and treasures and reveal to you connections and hidden meanings not visible at first glance.
Angelika was accommodating and worked with me on the itinerary. She made sure she included everything I wanted to see and more. You could tell she loves what she does and is highly energetic and knowlegable. Her enthusiasm was infectious. When we come back I will ask for her again and refer her to any of my friends who are going to Vienna.
Angelika made our visit to the Hofburg memorable. She was knowledgeable, spoke impeccable English and gave us an interesting and informative tour that appealed to 2 adults and captivated our 8 year old. My daughter still recites facts about Sisi a month later!
Angelika and her history background and engaging personality made our tour of the Kunsthistorisches Museum and the Imperial Treasury truly memorable. Her enthusiasm and knowledge inspired us to want to further study Austrian history. She encouraged us to understand the high points and significance of the art works. The Cellini Salt Cellar will always be remembered due to her exciting description. We would hire Angelika thru Tours by Locals for future visits. She is a credit to your organization.
