Overall rating

Overall the pass was a wonderful option allowing us to decide what to see and when. The staff was wonderful and very helpful and provided some ideas on getting around which attractions were close to each other. The only thing I would say is make sure on day of arrival get there early to get your pass. We got there the day before but about an hour after 12 so we could not get our passes.

Excellent commentary and description by our guide put the Habsburg dynasty in perspective. Our guide, Ute, brought people and events to life for a fascinating experience. Would highly recommend this tour!

Tour guide was very knowledgeable and accommodating with us. It was great to have a private tour so we could go at our own pace.

只待兩天買四個行程剛好,建議如果選HOP-ON/OFF為一個行程的話,可以跟美泉宮和美景宮錯開。因為這兩個地點參觀時間較久,而觀光巴士只行駛到下午5、6點,能搭的時間不多。

Excellent. Very interesting and informative. A must do for any visitor.
