Museum is crowded and popular items are a bit difficult to see. Tour guide was witty and had depth of knowledge
Andy (Andreas) is an excellent guide who is truly passionate about art and his work. Highly recommended!
Andy, the guide was absolutely brilliant! He covered all the important pieces of the museum and clearly knows a lot about the history of art. Would definitely recommend.
Beautiful palace and gardens a must tour if in Vienna. Our tour guide Andy was such a friendly, personable guy that provided great history on the palace. The gardens are equally beautiful. A must tour
Lots of walking but really worth the visit and the experience. Our guide was knowledgeable and kept us all together as a group.
Unfortunately I forgot that this was a guided tour ; our guide tried valiantly to reach us but my phone was on low battery and did not pick up …totally our fault; the exhibition was amazing
The tour guide Antonia was great! She walked us through the palace, historical setting of the era and described the artists and the paintings in such a way that they seem to become alive! I strongly recommend it.
Very interesting visit, beautiful place, exhibition and palace. Our guide, very knowledgeable, was very good and showed us very well the historical period and the major works in the palace, Klimt first of all. the time available for the visit passed really quickly. Recommended
