“This was my second visit to Schonbrunn and this experience with a knowledgeable guide was so worthwhile and enjoyable. Our guide Eddie added colour and texture to what I remember experiencing the first time I went through the palace with just the recorded audio guide.

“Biljana was one of the top guides we’ve experienced in over 40 years of international travel. Thorough knowledge of palace history and players with some royal gossip along the way. Schönbrunn’s interiors are both breathtaking and memorable—as are the vast and manicured grounds. A stop at the cafe in the way out was the perfect end to a great half-day tour.”
