Servus in Wien! Travelling and exploring cultures is one of my passions and I always search the contact with locals. For me this is the most authentic way to understand a culture, to be part of it, even if it is for a short time. Therefore as a local licensed Tourist Guide I feel I must share my enthusiasm and my knowledge for the art, the music, the architecture and the way of life in Vienna and Austria with visitors of this city and country. I love to make people happy. You will see the city and the country with different eyes and experience the ambience in a friendly way. What can I do for you: • Walking tours, city tours with your transportation or with a hired car, mini van or bus, special theme tours, museum visits, day tours in Vienna and its outskirts. • Proposals for your tourist program in Vienna/Austria. • Proposals for cultural activities, restaurants, bars, etc. It is my job to propose a program that fits you. With me you will use your time efficiently (e. g. you do not have to stand in line for tickets or search the sights) and get optimal information and directions. I am a Licensed Tourist Guide in Austria (AustriaGuide), member of the Chamber of Commerce Vienna. I do not have a commercial driver's license, but I can arrange a car with a driver.

Jewish history and contemporary Jewish life with a private guide
Overview of your Vienna tour
Complement your knowledge about Jewish heritage in general also by exploring Jewish Vienna! We know about Jewish life in Vienna since the Medieval Ages. The city was one of the most prominent centres of Jewish culture in Europe until the National-Socialist rule in Austria. It was the Jewish community that contributed mostly to making Vienna the cultural and scientific capital of Europe around 1900. On this 2. 5 hour private walking tour you will learn about the very first Jewish community at Judenplatz, where a Holocaust Memorial stands there since year 2000; Morzinplatz and the Jewish textile Quarter connected with the Nazi period. We will explore neighborhoods in Leopoldstadt, the center of Jewish life in Vienna since centuries. On our route is also the latest Shoah Memorial, erected 2021, the Namewalls Memorial (Shoah-Namensmauern-Gedenkstätte). I would like to share with you my enthusiasm for our Jewish heritage and its importance for Vienna. A sense of humor complements my narrative.

Our guide, Marieta, was waiting for us on time at our cruise boat with smiles. She was fully prepared with maps and books to show us as she gave us information we had requested. She was helpful, gracious, entertaining and knowledgeable. We enjoyed every minute of our time with Marieta, one of the best tours we have taken in our extensive travels. We would highly recommend this tour for anyone interested in past and present Jewish life in Vienna from the Middle Ages to current times.
