Why choose a private guided tour over independent travel?

Whether you’re traveling with your family, friends or you are taking an extra day off at your destination after business travel consider making your tour private to save precious holiday time, see more and experience a whole new degree of personalization.

Your time is precious. Make the best of your holiday!

Let’s face it catching local transport can be a time consuming and crowded experience. If you don’t speak the local languages chances are you may even get lost. This is where private guided tours can prove to be a great choice for those who want to see as much as they can in a small space of time. In our opinion there is nothing more annoying then loosing precious holiday time on finding your way to attractions or queuing infront of them.

When you make your tour private, you’ll have your own local private guides which means you can spend more time getting to know your most anticipated sites. Imperial Travel Vienna handles all the organization and prep work for visiting landmarks in the area. You save time and energy that you would normally put into planning out your own tours. You simply book your preferred tour and we will pick you up in one of our fully equipped luxury Mercedes cars (E or S Class) or vans (V Class of Sprinter) in front of your hotel. Transportation is handled for you. The tour guide puts together a schedule for visiting locations based on their proximity to make efficient use of the tour time. The tours take into account the visiting hours of the stops on the itinerary so you don't have to spend hours researching the information for each place you want to visit.

Get a personalized experience and explore your interests!

Are you wine enthusiasts? Or maybe you want to visit some of the shoot locations of your favorite movie? When you go private, you can tailor your trip to reflect your interests with additions such as wine tastings or visits to sites with literary connections. With a private tour, you’ll have the option to customize your trip even further. From spending an extra night or two in your favorite city or adding new stops to the itinerary to requesting your favorite local guide, you have the ability to make your tour experience your own.

Your safety is first!

The first time in a new location leaves many travelers feeling nervous or unsure of where to go and how to act. This is particularly true for vacations abroad if you aren't fluent in the local language. A private guided tour will give you sense of comfort since the tour guide understands the culture.

Don’t be part of the crowd, explore the hidden gems!

Travel books are an acceptable way to prepare for your trip but by the time they are released the hidden gems will be revealed to millions of tourists. A private tour guide will know how to beat the crowd and will show you the truly hidden sides of the city. Imperial Vienna Travel operates frequent tours in Vienna, Budapest and Prague. We have an in-depth knowledge of our destinations that you might not have. Insider knowledge of the area means you'll hit all the highlights. The tour will allow you to uncover some hidden gems within the city that you wouldn't otherwise know about. Guides always share stories and bits of history about landmarks to give more depth to your experience. We use our knowledge of the cities to schedule activities and visits during times when they aren't as busy.

In our opinion, exploring a city privately with your expert guide teaching you about your destination is more fulfilling than just exploring on your own. You will experience a well-orchestrated day of discovery at your own pace in the comfort of your private Mercedes vehicle and surrounded by only those you choose to take on your travel journey.
