A great experience - We had an unforgettable experience and learned a great deal about Klimt, thanks to the very enthusiasic and knowledgeable guide. We enjoyed every minute of it to say the least. Towards the end of the tour my wife felt quite ill suddenly. Our guide help us to get to a general hospital to get emergency care. We truly appreciate her help and the great intro she gave into Klimt himself and his work.

A Klimt Tour to Remember - This tour turned out to be an absolutely unforgettable experience for our family! At each museum, every magnificent artwork added a new layer to Klimt’s artistic legacy. Julia was an excellent guide who helped us understand how each piece emerges from the interplay between personal talent and broader cultural influences. The tour was demanding in terms of time and energy, but we left with a deeper appreciation for Klimt’s artistic vision and a renewed curiosity about the mysteries behind his work. Whether you’re a Klimt lover or simply looking for a memorable cultural experience, this tour offers something truly unique and is highly recommended.

Exceptional Klimt Tour - This was one of two tours we took with Julia. Both were excellent. My wife and I knew very little about Klimt other than "The Kiss" and "The Woman in Gold" and essentially nothing about his life or the scope of his work. This tour was great not only because we learned so much about Klimt and the evolution of his work, but we visited three outstanding venues all of which are interesting in their own right. Julia has a talent for explaining and illustrating how his art evolved pointing out the transitions as they occurred in his work. Incredibility fascinating and more importantly, fun and enjoyable. Julia is a pleasure to learn from, and we highly recommend her. My guess is every tour she has curated would be great based on the two experiences we had with her (our other tour was the must see masterpieces of the Museum of Art History (Kunsthistorisches Museum).

An Eye-Opening Tour - This tour was so much more than just an introduction to Klimt’s paintings—it opened up the entire history of art from a completely new perspective. Julia’s ability to connect the dots across time periods, artists, and cultural shifts was truly enlightening. The tour was filled with humor, insight, and thoughtful connections that bridged art with deeper cultural understanding. A fascinating and enriching experience from start to finish!
