What people are saying about Vienna State Opera

You can also find places with little expense. The theater is wonderful. The spectacle offered was rich and generous. Unfortunately, there is no longer education in a general sense, and musical in a particular sense; what is an audience constantly addicted to mobile phones doing in the theater? From the stage I saw the audience light up continuously, here or there. Next to me a Japanese girl had two cell phones; just a glare from me scared her and at the interval she went away, giving up half of the show, which had cost her 75 euros.

Talented guide gave in-depth information about each location. He took us around old town ow Vienna and now we can say we went to Vienna and learned history of Vienna. Set a certificate. It was an expensive tour but at the end the value added to our experience because of knowledgeable guide was worth the money. Thank you!

A wonderful experience that I highly recommend. The meal was delicious, our companion charming, the concert perfect!
