Getting to know the former imperial city of Vienna and today's capital of Austria individually and personally tailored to you—this is my goal as your licensed guide and local expert in Vienna! My name is Martha. Although I was born in Upper Austria, I quickly discovered my love for Vienna. After graduating from university in Vienna, I knew I wanted to make this unique city my home. Vienna has it all: impressive and scenic squares, secret alleys, countless art collections in our museums, world-class music, beautiful architecture, and a rich cultural heritage. Before starting my career as a tour guide and running my one-woman agency in Vienna, I lived and worked in many other countries. The travel experiences I've gained from these wonderful journeys form the basis for my flexible and intuitive approach to individual tours. In 2009, I started my own business focusing on personalized tours and cultural programs for small groups, aiming to share what truly fascinates me about Vienna. This city offers an incredible quality of life, seamlessly blending the traditions of the past with the vibrancy of modern life. I believe that travel can be so much more than just a business trip or a sightseeing tour. It’s an opportunity to immerse yourself in Austrian culture, experience Vienna's past and present, and enjoy the city's unique art scenes and delightful experiences. As a local guide living in Vienna, it is important for me to engage in meaningful dialogue with my guests. I prioritize answering questions about the current situation in Austria and discussing contemporary issues affecting Vienna. By fostering this exchange, I aim to provide a more enriching and insightful experience for my visitors. I strive to stay informed about local developments and trends to ensure that I can offer accurate and up-to-date information. My goal is to create a welcoming and interactive environment where guests feel comfortable exploring and understanding the unique aspects of Vienna. I have been a licensed Austria Guide since 2001. I completed the extensive two-year course and passed the exam to become a licensed Austria Guide right away. Please note that I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle, or I can arrange for a separate car and driver. Please let me know in advance, if you want to book a car and driver in addition to my tours. I am very much looking forward to hearing from you!

The charm of Vienna's old town will enchant you at first sight! Together we will walk from the cathedral via the elegant pedestrian zones on Graben and Kohlmarkt to the former Imperial Palace Hofburg. The Habsburgs were among the five leading royal families in Europe and Vienna was the hub of their powerful empire. My tour will bring these days alive and introduce you to the most important personalities at court. Today Vienna is loved by its citizens for one of the highest living qualities worldwide. Besides the imperial past, the turbulent and terrible times in the 1930ies to 1940ies and Cold War times, I am also happy to show you and talk about the present days. Vienna has a lot to offer and yet the most important sights are within walking distance. This tour will give you a perfect overview and lots of ideas for your own walks discovering the city, museum visits and answers to all your questions.
My personal highlights include: • St. Stephen's Cathedral • the Vienna Graben • the Plague Column • and of course the Kohlmarkt and the Hofburg. We also see: • Heldenplatz • Josefsplatz pass the stables of the Lipizzaner Horses • the Albertina and the State Opera. I have planned a route for us that allows us to easily reach all these highlights on foot or, if desired, by car. In any case, I will of course always adapt the tour to your individual wishes and preferences. Personal recommendations for restaurants, my favourite coffee houses and other exciting discoveries will be given to you at the end of our tour. *This tour does not include a visit to the interior of the highlights such as the Albertina or the Hofburg, but it can be customized to your individual wishes at any time.
Tell your guide which places matter to you, skip what doesn't, and tailor the experience for your group's needs. Not finding what you want? Message your guide to build something unique.
