Private Tour of the Kunsthistorisches Museum: Secrets of Masterpieces | Tickets included (opens in a new tab)

30 3 h

The title of masterpiece gives a work of art a special status and if you are going to visit a museum for the first time, you want to see famous works by renowned masters. The Museum of the History of Art in Vienna has many paintings, gems and statues that count to the world famous masterpieces. They include paintings by Rembrandt, Cranach, Vermeer, Raphael and Caravaggio, sculptures by Canova, Gianbologna as well as works by ancient Greek and Roman artists. And you don't need experts to enjoy their works. This tour of the museum is for those who value both an aesthetic pleasure as well as an intellectual one. We will go through all the collections of one of the best art museums in the world and look at masterpieces from different perspectives to understand why this particular work, and not the neighbouring one, has made on the shortlist of must-see objects. To do this, we'll follow the museum's list of most valuable exhibits and I'll not only tell you their official histories and characteristics, I'll also explain how artists have used our cognition and clever self-promotion. We will also discuss the fickleness of worldly fame and the role of the spirit and the taste of the times. Among the major masterpieces we will break down in detail are Benvenuto Cellini's "Saliera", Raphael's "Madonna in the Meadow", Peter Brueghel's "The Tower of Babel" and "Hunters in the Snow", Caravaggio's "Madonna with Beads", Vermeer's "Allegory of Painting" as well as The Reserve Head from the Egyptian collection and Sarcophagus with Amazons from the Greek collection. On a tour with me you can not only enjoy the art, but also learn to navigate a little more in the intricacies of such a subtle matter as "genius".

3 Capitals - from Vienna to Bratislava & Budapest Private Tour (opens in a new tab)

12 11 h – 12 h

Three capitals, one unforgettable day — with a route built around your energy, not the map. We drive to Budapest first, while you're fresh: your guide fills the road with the story of the Habsburg empire, so the view from the Fisherman's Bastion over the Danube and Parliament already means something. Walk Buda Castle hill, see the Chain Bridge and Matthias Church, and feel why Budapest is called the "Paris of the East". Free time for lunch — Jenny points you to her favourite local spots (own expense). The return is broken exactly where it should be: in Bratislava, a compact medieval old town — coronation cathedral, quirky bronze statues, castle views. And the part our guests love: from Bratislava it's only about one hour back to Vienna. We're Jenny & Vlad, a two-person team: professional driver and licensed guide & photographer. We're always honest about distances — this is a full day with real driving between three countries, and we've designed every hour of it to be comfortable.

Private Tour of the Belvedere Palace with an Art Historian: "Pictures of Austrian Identities". Art & History Tour with Skip-the-line Tickets (opens in a new tab)

27 2 h

How would you describe Vienna - the capital of culture? The birthplace of the waltz? The birthplace of psychoanalysis? All of these, and more, are true characteristics of the Austrian capital. The Genius Loci (spirit of place) is packed with details and you won't find them in quite as many places as in Belvedere. Do you want to discover what works of art from the different eras can tell you about the specific Austrian and Viennese identity? Then take a tour of the Belvedere and gain an insight into the different facets of the national character. In Gustav Klimt's golden "Judith" and "The Kiss" we can explore why female sexuality is the focus of medical interest in Vienna. The troubling mood of Egon Schiele's "Embrace" and "The Girl and Death" can also help us understand why this city became the birthplace of psychoanalysis. The ornate baroque decoration of the palace, the accent on the ancient heroic themes will explain the special imperial atmosphere of the city, in which the Viennese live and in which tourists so eagerly dive. And Ferdinand Waldmüller's pellucid paintings will try to enchant us by showing the famous "Viennese cosiness" and we have to make an effort to see what tragedies lie behind these well-marketed images. The gilding of medieval altars and Klimt's golden masterpieces, the sparks of intellectual life and Viennese humour that glimmer through the sombre paintings of Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka - what really makes this famous palace's collection shine? And what exactly shows us the true face of the (former imperial) capital? The answers to these questions await you in the galleries of Belvedere Palace.

Private Memorial Tour from Vienna to Mauthausen & Eagle's Nest (opens in a new tab)

6 12 h – 14 h

A day of light and shadow — the most difficult and the most breathtaking chapters of 20th-century history, guided with care. In the morning we visit the Mauthausen Memorial, the former concentration camp above the Danube (entry is free). Jenny, a historian by education, guides you respectfully through the granite quarry, the "Stairs of Death" and the national memorials, giving context that turns a heavy place into an essential lesson. We take this part slowly and quietly. In the afternoon the landscape changes completely as we climb to the Kehlsteinhaus — the Eagle's Nest. Pass through the marble-lined tunnel, ride the original brass elevator 124 metres up through solid rock, and step out to one of Europe's greatest alpine panoramas at 1,834 m. The contrast to the morning is exactly the point. We're honest about the day: 12–14 hours with significant driving, broken by scenic stops. Vlad drives, Jenny guides and photographs — you simply take it in.
