As an archaeologist, I combine urban history with the iconography of the Habsburgs to reveal the stories hidden behind Vienna’s elegant façades. I love strolling through the City Center, Prater, Stuwerviertel, and Spittelberg, uncovering layers of the past beneath the vibrant present. Whether we’re exploring ornate architecture or sharing a hearty Viennese meal of gulasch, schnitzel, and pastries in a traditional coffee house, my goal is to help you experience Vienna’s charm through local eyes and leave with unforgettable stories.

What I love most about Vienna is how you can walk through centuries in a single afternoon - from Roman ruins beneath the streets to baroque palaces and the quirky Hundertwasserhaus. I’m fascinated by the Viennese way of savoring life, whether it’s a long coffee at a traditional café or a sunset at a Heuriger in Grinzing. I know the Inner City inside out and can guide you through its hidden courtyards, vibrant neighborhoods, and stories of Imperial history, architecture, coffee culture, and Vienna’s rich queer heritage. Walking, exploring, and sharing the city’s layers with guests never gets old!

What I love most about Vienna is its living history - walking through the city feels like stepping into a storybook, from baroque palaces and hidden courtyards to streets that whisper centuries of tales. I’m inspired by the music that fills the air, from Mozart and Beethoven to Strauss, and the café culture where tradition and conversation blend perfectly. I love losing myself in the Kunsthistorisches Museum or experiencing concerts at the Musikverein. I know neighborhoods like the First District and Cottageviertel very well, and I strive to bring Vienna’s art, palaces, churches, and history to life through engaging stories that are as entertaining as they are enlightening.

Growing up in medieval Clam Castle sparked my passion for Austria’s rich history and art, and I loved leading guests through the castle museum. After studying business in Vienna and Edinburgh and working in the paper industry, I turned my hobby into a career, organizing and guiding music and cultural tours across Europe. During the pandemic, I became a certified Austria guide, and now I enjoy sharing Vienna’s grandeur and local charm with visitors. I know neighborhoods like Leopoldstadt and Naschmarkt very well and love helping guests explore the city’s music, history, and art in ways that are engaging, memorable, and fun.

Here is what our guests say about our hosts and creating memories
Selin was an excellent guide. We had a delightful experience on a tour custom tailored to our needs (not our first time in Vienna). She took us to places off the “beaten path”. She kept us engaged with historical facts as well as fun anecdotes about Vienna. We enjoyed cappuccino and cakes in a cafe where Beethoven had played once. We made a list of places we would visit and eat at on our next visit to Vienna. Highly recommend Selin for a private tour of Vienna!
We had a lovely time with our kind and knowledgeable guide, Indira. She organized things to accommodate my daughter who uses a wheelchair, and created a good balance of “must do” sites and hidden gems I wouldn’t have ever found on my own.
Dagmar was a very engaging and knowledgeable guide. She went out of her way to plan a route that would take us past the things that we were most interested in seeing. Truly personalized the whole experience. Highly recommend!
Annabelle was excellent! She was extremely knowledgeable, kind, and made a perfect day for us.
Dagmar is the best! This is the forth time i booked a tour with CU, and it was my favorite one. Dagmar was empathetic with the fact that our arrival to Vienna was a disaster and we arrived later than expected needing to rearrange the tour. She is incredibly knowledgeable about the history, architecture, art and food in Vienna. She is not only kind but very welcoming. I highly recommend this tour to anyone and I hope you get Dagmar as your guide! This is an incredible way to start your trip to Vienna! Danke shön Dagmar.

This isn’t a traditional tour with a fixed script. It’s a fully personalized day shaped around your interests, whether it’s culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots. Your host is a knowledgeable local, more like a friend showing you their city. It’s flexible, one-on-one, and tailored entirely to you.
After booking, you’ll receive a short questionnaire where you can share your interests, travel style, and any must-see spots. Based on that, we’ll match you with a local host who’ll reach out to plan your personalized itinerary.
