Freud - Inside the mind of a Genius
Description
Freud changed the world and its understanding of the human mind! All he needed was a couch and troubled patients. But was it really that easy? On this walking tour we want to have ourselves a closer look at the exceptional personality of Sigmund Freud. We won't lie down though, instead we will walk in his footprints and uncover layer by layer of his desires, anxieties, troubles and defeats before the stardom of a genius took over! Freud was made by Vienna, so let's walk outside through his remarkable district! The tour will end in front of the Sigmund Freud Museum and you will have the option to enjoy it on your own. A ticket is NOT included.

We were at the meeting location 25 minutes prior to our start time and your guide never arrived.. We wated a a total of 45 minutes and no tour guide. Do not go on this tour or use this tour service provider.
The guide didn't show up and Viator was quick to respond and to give a refund but I think n they should've gone further - ie offer a tour voucher to make up for b the time and disappointment
This is an absolute must-do tour for a very unique perspective of Vienna and the mind and workings of a genius Sigmund Freud. It is an explorative tour which builds up so well. Very thoughtfully put together through thorough research and it shows. The storytelling was so good it kept us completely engaged on a chilly afternoon. I wish we could give more than 5 stars.
Lisa Marie was a very well informed and entertaining Freud tour guide ! We had such a good time and learnt many things about a controversial genius.
I am a psychologist and I have always had the desire of coming to Vienna to learn and experience directly the place that Freud lived and had his practice. I loved learning more about his history and helps me understand more his background and challenges to express his theories , etc.
A Freud walking tour offers a chance to explore something a bit different in Vienna and learn about the great man. Lots of interesting research brought to life fascinating aspects of Freud.
This tour is not about Freud museum, you don’t go inside the museum! You have a tour around, but Not in the museum. So please change the title of the tour! I missed it because I went to the museum and the group was not even there!
Thank you for your feedback. We are very sad that you feel that way! Especially after we talked to you on the phone and tried to explain to you the way to the correct meeting point. We offered even to wait with the whole group until you would arrive and you refused. As it is described, we offer a walking tour about Freud in the neighbourhood he grew up and worked. Our tour ends in front of the Museum, for those who want to visit his old apartment. It is very unfortunate to give a bad review about a tour you didn't attend to although we offered you different solutions.
Great tour! Jascha was a wonderful and very pleasant guide. Great tour for anyone who wants to get to know people and the city better beyond the theories of Freud. We highly recommend them.
Guide apparently got sick the last minute No one informed me Had to contact agency from crowded meeting point where no one showed and I had rushed to get there
Thank you for your feedback. We are very sorry for the circumstances. Unfortunately our guide got sick in the last minute and we tried to reach out to all our guests as quick as possible. We understand the trouble it caused you and are very sorry about it!
