It was great to meet a local and learn about some of the history of Innsbruck and the Tyrolean people.

Rudi pointed out some buildings of interest and the clues they gave to the past. It definitely added to our short visit to Innsbruck and we would definitely do it again.

We don’t have the words to do justice to our tour with Emmi.

From the start it was like walking around Innsbruck with a friend who can answer all the random questions we’ve had over the years but haven’t been able to ask. Her knowledge was really impressive but the details she could provide about everyday Tyrolean life made the facts come to life for us.

We’ve already decided to come back a year earlier to get the Autumn version of her tour, as long as she’s not booked up! We cannot recommend the experience highly enough, it was like meeting a tour guide and a new friend in one. A total delight. Thank you so much for matching us with Emmi – a truly unforgettable experience.

We had such a lovely morning with Angelika. She took us to places we would never have seen, including the best places for photos and taught us about Innsbruck. She was marvellous!

Sarah from Stockton, UK

Bernard speaks amazing English, showed us all the main sites of Innsbruck. He recommended cafe’s, restaurants and activities. His bar/cafe recommendations were 10/10 and we went back multiple times.

He gave us a tour of the free locations and explains the most cost effective ways to access the rest.

We were so lucky to meet up with Michaela (Michi). Our train from Munich late but she waited for us for over an hour and then spent from 17:00-19:00 showing us around the town she loves. Very knowledgeable and humourous about all things Innsbruck & Austria.

We saw so much we would have missed or misunderstood. So grateful to spend a few hours with a lovely local.

We had a lovely time with Rudi. Really enjoyed the walk and talk, lots of information especially about how people live in Innsbruck. Very grateful for such a pleasant afternoon.

Thank you

We spent a most enjoyable morning with Rudi who showed us some parts of the city which we would never have otherwise visited, as well as the main tourist sites. A few days beforehand, we exchanged emails and Rudi gave us many helpful suggestions and recommendations. We got on very well with him, and are very grateful for his time and assistance.

An Innsbruck Greeter was a great way to find out a bit more about this city. Silvia was easily contactable and available to us as planned. She showed us around the oldest part of the city (less touristy) and told us about the history. She also took us to the market and explained about local foods.

I think it might be better if you knew what you were most interested in before you did this walk (because it’s not a guided tour it’s just a walk with someone who knows the area) , but it’s hard to know when you haven’t been somewhere before!

Helen from Bornemouth, UK

So we are in our last morning here and we’ll just have a wander round the shops, perhaps get some wine at “Invinum” ! 

We’ve very much enjoyed our time here….many thanks to you and Silvia for showing us part of your city on Wednesday and for the hints and tips. We made it to “Die Brennerei” last night for a lovely meal and their own Gin, followed by Williams and then Vogelbeere [mountain ash] Schnapps ! 

So very best wishes from us to you and again our sincere thanks. If you ever come to the South of England, please do let us know…and perhaps I’ll look into becoming a Greeter….
