We had an incredible time with the best tour guide, Roman! He is exceptionally knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging. Roman’s deep understanding of the history, culture and stories made every stop on our tour fascinating. Roman was also very attentive to our needs, ensuring everyone in the group felt included and comfortable. He went above and beyond to answer all our questions and provided excellent recommendations for places to eat and shop during the tour. His warm and approachable demeanor made it easy to connect with him. I’ll definitely recommend this tour to everyone, the places we went were incredibly beautiful!

Super knowledgeable guide and we appreciated how he would “case out” certain locations to see if they were open before ushering us (12 ppl) into locations. Great world history refresher along the journey plus SOM trivia that got us excited for the SOM tour in a few days. Perfect afternoon which culminated in wrapping adjacent to the largest Christmas Market.

I'm so glad I went. I definitely got some adventure on my trip. Michael, our tour guide, was a lot of fun and he took some amazing pictures and video. He was fun to talk to during the drive too. There were some fun facts about canned air, Hallstatt in China, and more!

Our tour guide, Jeremy, is very knowledgeable about the history of the city. Never boring.

It was amazing ! Food was great ! Music was amazing !! Would go again !
