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.

    As instructed. we arrived 15 minutes early to commence the tour at 11am. Once the tour guide collected the entry tickets, we finally entered the Upper Belvedere Palce to commence the guided tour of the art gallery at 11.45am. The tour guide was very quietly spoken and at times difficult to hear Very dissapointing content Poor value for money
