"Photographer's delight!"

If you are a hobby photographer, you can't miss this experience with Tobias. We started the tour at 930 pm. Tobias not only took us to some of the best spots in Vienna's central district, he also gave handy tips on photo composition, camera handling etc. As much as we enjoyed the sights, as a hobby photographer, I found his tips invaluable. Thanks Tobias!

"Best Photo Tour"

Outstanding photo tour - not only that Tobias showed us the most spectacular buildings/ areas in Vienna at night but also that he supported everyone with the cameras settings (independent if DSLR or smartphone). Tobias is really knowledgeable about the history in Vienna and most important a really wonderful human! We enjoyed every minute of this tour.
