About this Tour

Whether it's legendary buildings, medieval narrow streets or remnants of the Roman legion camp - every place tells stories from very old times... Because: Only a few still know today about the exciting events that took place in Vienna from the Middle Ages to the present day. Not even among the real Viennese are there many who know about the city's hidden places, alleys and hidden cultural treasures.

A great experience, although we live in Vienna, there are some beautiful old alleys and courtyards to discover at the Rätselralley.

We were well prepared for the journey - everything was available: clipboard, cards, questions and a sharpened, protected pencil in a backpack. Top! Right from the start, it was an experience and adventure at the Wien Museum, which gave us completely new insights into history and the museum. Sparkling, exciting and varied!

Very cool and lovingly designed puzzle rally! Our guides were Vicky and Luise and found us along the way to take pictures of us while we were exploring the city. It was really funny.

We recently did the new crime tour and what can I say - highly recommended! You learn things about Vienna that you never knew, get into alleys where you never were as a local and also have a great interactive experience as a team. Our little daughter was also there in the stroller 🥰 I'm looking forward to the next one!
