This trip was an excellent start to some of the highlights of the city. Well done.

A well organised trip with a knowledgeable and skilled guide who was able to switch smoothly between three languages during the commentary. The only downside was the long delay about 30 minutes at the start-no explanation!

The last stop, in an unattractive shopping area, was not necessary.

The Viator ticket indicated that Schwedenplatz was a pickup point. The tour operator only picks up at the Opera House. We missed our trip on Friday because of this misprint, but the tour operator let us do the trip on Saturday. This messed up our arrangements for our short weekend break.

I enjoyed the trip, although there were not enough outside seats on boat, so I had a restricted view. Also, there was no opportunity for hotel drop-off afterwards, so the tour shouldn't be advertised as including this.

This was a great way to introduce us to the city, making for an enjoyable morning.

This tour is a very good to see the city. The boat ride was very nice especially as we had fantastic weather.

This would have been much better had we not listened to the tour in German, then Italian, then English. The tour guide was very nice, but switching three languages was not enjoyable and sometimes the comments were Italalian-German-English mingled. Otherwise it was a great tour with interesting stops along the way, the boat ride was very nice, but very crowded.

I was expecting more stops at historic sights. The boat trip was good though. The service and the guide were excellent through the trip but the trip itself wasn't that spectacular at all, quite disappointing actually.

Not very interesting. This boat trip is a waste of time. There's no scenery to a speak of, and the river is dirty.

The Panoramic Vienna City Tour was OK, but we found the ride on the Danube boring. We expected more from the tour.

We were very disappointed to find out that so much of the tour was on a bus and that the live commentary was multilingual, not just in English. The guide was VERY disinterested in his job. We would have preferred a headset to listen to the information rather than this man! The boat ride was very enjoyable. We thought that the tour only involved a bus ride to get to and from the boat so that most of the 3.5 hour tour would have been by boat instead of only about an hour.

Tour guide was not up to the mark. Vienna is such a beautiful place and the tour does not even project 10 of the Vienna beauty. Places selected for stops are really not worth stopping. Boat ride is also not interesting.
