The museum was amazing, but the best part was our guide,Anastasia!! She was very knowledgeable about both art and history, always had an interesting or fun story, and kept us engaged. She was, hands down, our best guide in Vienna. Kudos to Headout and Anastasia!

Exceptional! Guided tour to the Upper Belvedere - Vienna We quickly found our guide, Otilia, who turned out to be a knowledgeable, kind and very helpful professional. She took us with great passion through the halls of the museum, making us dwell on some particularly significant works and carefully describing them, even dwelling on details that we probably would have ignored on our own. A truly enjoyable and interesting experience, which I highly recommend to anyone who wants to visit the Belvedere with a knowledgeable and passionate guide.

Our guide Dieter was fantastic. Attentive to the group, speaking slowly and clearly, providing interesting stories, linking history, art, architecture, artists' lives etc. Knows a lot and pasinate about what he does. The audio headphones were really useful, we could hear Dieter easily all the time. My family enjoyed this experience and thank you once again for the unforgettable visit.

    The tour was well organised and our guide was very knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She was always able to find a quiet space to provide her commentary despite the crowds in the palace.
