 | I have been working as a professional tour guide for some 20 years now, showing my home town to visitors from all over the world and locals alike. My focus is on the off-the-beaten-track-parts of town, places not generally open to the public, and the facts you won't necessarily find in a guide book. Learn more about the social policy of Red Vienna in the 1930s, see burial vaults and historic cellars hidden beneath the city, and explore with me what Vienna was like in 1945. | ||||||||
