Enjoyable walk around Vienna
Lisa was very informative and funny! These tours really bring out the interesting and dark parts of history they don't really teach you in school. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Thanks so much for the amazing review - we are so happy you liked the tour!!

Such a fun evening!
Lisa was fantastic! She had so much energy, was funny, knowledgeable, and personable. The tour was just my family, and we all had so much fun. Lisa's stories were gruesome and funny and surprising, including true stories and legends. Highly recommend!

Great tour and tour guide - a must do tour!
We loved our Private Vienna Ghost Tour and our guide, Lisa! She had the very best stories and we had so much fun walking around and learning about Vienna history. We saw many different sites and she had interesting information on everything. The pace of the walk was great, and she took the time to answer our questions. I would recommend Lisa to anyone, she has great energy and made the tour so enjoyable!

Disappointment. No one showed up to meet us!
There was a glitch. The tour operator never got the booking from Viator. We showed up on tine but no one ever met us. She called later after getting my texts to apologize and said she never heard from you. We were very disappointed!!!
Response from the operator: Hi Anne, I'm so sorry again for what happened. I spoke with Viator again after we talked, and you should already have been reimbursed for the tour. I deeply apologize for the miscommunication and inconvenience and especially the disappointment your grandkids must have felt! I hope you were still able to have a nice time in Vienna.

Why this scores 65
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vienna.
How much does Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $295 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vienna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vienna is not rushed.
Is Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 65 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 42 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vienna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour?
+
Around 15 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vienna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vienna and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Private Spooky Vienna Ghost Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vienna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Vienna?
+
On Outty we rank every Vienna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Authentic Vienna Food Tour inc. lunch, street food, 3 drinks, Vienna Food Tour: Coffeehouses, Markets, Lunch & Street Food, Budapest Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Vienna?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Vienna?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
