Listen to the exiting stories about the city. Starting at Stephansplatz, you’ll walk around St. Stephen’s Cathedral to the picturesque Ballgasse. Here you’ll discover the story behind the streets name. See Vienna’s cat café and admire the façade of the Franciscan Church. Learn about how the nobility once lived and stroll through the beautiful courtyards. That tour offers different aspects of Vienna. Marvel at the impressive Baroque architecture. Learn more about the former city wall and get to know Viennese cuisine.

Fredianio took myself & my cousin all around ‘back street Vienna’. He had a lot of knowledge of architectural styles and era’s. We got on famously as we had a shared interest. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience

Great tour of offbeat locations within walking distance of St Stephen’s offering great insights into Viennese culture and history. Our guide Herbert was excellent.

It's a great overview of Vienna. I recommend to anyone on their first visit to get a feel for the city. Great history lesson. The guide really knows the area. Restaurant and food recommendations were spot on for us. We went back the following days to all the things we wanted to see.

We truly enjoyed our 2-1/2 hour walking tour today with Herbert and his dry sense of humor. We had already been in Vienna for 3 days and he showed us spots we had walked by many times and missed! I really liked the historical photos and maps he showed us on his tablet.

We met our guide Herbert in St. Stephen’s Square and from the first few moments we began to learn about the history of Vienna. He had many images that were really helpful in imagining how old Vienna looked. I won’t tell you about what we saw as that will ruin the tour. We did learn about several things that we had walked by several times and had no idea of the significance. We learned about history, traditional foods, Mozart and WWII. We had lots of questions and all were answered along the way. We also stopped for a minute to say hi to the President of Austria as he passed by. I would certainly recommend this tour to anyone interested in the less touristy spots in central Vienna.

We enjoyed this excursion and our guide pointed out little known areas and hidden treasures, making it memorable and a great addition to our time in Vienna. We had walked right past an underground treasurer in the metro stop near St. Peter's Church! I don't want to give too much away! If you are interested in seeing more than the traditional tourist stops, make sure to book this tour.
