“Great experience - self guided tour - with tasting at the end. Very interesting story of how wine is made in Austria. Captions on displays were in German and English - a bonus! The wine itself was excellent - tasting the 3 wines encouraged us to make a purchase - although there is no obligation to buy!”

“Interessante Tour. Tolle Zusammensetzung zwischen bekannten Sehenswürdigkeiten mit unbekannten Details.

Die Wegbeschreibungen waren top und auch für Unkundige gut beschrieben.”

“Cons: Map was next-to-useless. Had to see where next location was and use Google maps. App navigation was not the easiest. Pros: Short, concise explanations. We gave up halfway around due to the inclement weather.”
A short, self-guided audio walk through Vienna’s core, from the Opera to a Stephansdom lap, with offline VoiceMap directions for $11.99.
“Interesting and informative at the same time! Loved the self-paces nature of it too. It was a great guide to wandering the city with some stories about what was around us. One minor flaw - we were charged twice for this - once through trip advisor and once through viator.”
