Unique and Fun Tour
We had a fun time walking some of the less travelled parts of Vienna with Fabian. One example of a place away from the usual tourist areas was a community garden. Fabian did a good job of advising us on taking photos with the Polaroids. He was patient and we never felt rushed.

Great fun
We did the tour in great weather in March, and had an excellent time. Our guide was friendly and knowledgeable and we saw a lot of great places. The tour itself took us places we probably would not find as tourists, which was a big plus.

Excellent tour
Our guide Jackie was knowledgeable and informative. I enjoyed seeing parts of Vienna not on the usual tourist route. The street art and graffiti were amazing. The tour is definitely worth doing.

Fun and quirky way to see the city
Seeing a city through the square viewfinder of a Polaroid camera was a great way to see Vienna; our guides, Gilbert and Itta, were helpful and knowledgeable. Highly recommended!

Wonderful City and Country Walk
Had a wonderful tour of both urban and rural parts of Vienna with Marieta, a knowledgeable and very pleasant guide.

Vienna through Polaroids
I'm so glad I found this Urban polaroid tour through Like A Local. My guide was Jackie and she was the best. She showed me the Urban Vienna through a different perspective. We finished the tour an hour early so we stopped by a coffee shop for brunch. I was the only person on the tour so everything was really flexible. Highly recommend this.

My guide Teresa Liska
I lived in Vienna for 3 months for work and I thought 'Lets do something fun'. I found the polaroid tour on trip advisor and I really love polaroids, so 1 + 1 =2. I had an unforgettable day! My tourguide was so sweet. I was the only one who booked the tour so I was lucky enough to have a private tour. First she told me an interesting story about the Impossible brand. After that we started the fun tour. I made a few photos myself but I rather had polaroids of myself than the city so she was kind enough to be my photographer for a day. I loved it! She was kind and easy to talk to. She even laid on the ground for me to make the most beautiful picture of me hihi. We had fun. Keep up the good work Teresa. You made my day and gave me inspo to work on some projects in my own city.

Do it! Do it! Do it!
Amazing! Loved every minute!
We had so much fun with Kady, our guide. She was clearly very passionate about the history and use of Polaroids and could tell us lots about the stunning city as we walked around. It was all very laid back though, not like other tours that I have been on, and the almost 2 and a half hours flew by! Very enjoyable, even in the cold, and we got to see lots of Vienna. And what's more- we now have some very unique and personalised souvenirs which we shall treasure forever and are already on display at home.
If you are a lover of taking photographs, Instagram etc I cannot recommend this enough. Now we just need this to be set up in a few more cities!

Knowledgeable and Passionate
Knowledgeable and passionate about both Vienna and Polaroid. With her help we saw things in Vienna we never would have seen, and took some really fantastic pictures that felt more like art than your standard cell phone snaps. I can highly recommend this tour. Wear comfortable shoes of course, and bring water.

Nice way to walk and know the city
I had an awesome afternoon taking photos with the polaroid. Even if you are a hobby/pro photographer, you will enjoy this tour very much, as the experience of shooting with this camera is quite unique. Jackie, my guide, was also very friendly and knowledgeable about both the camera and the city. Highly recommended!

The tour was awesome.
It started out a bit rainy, but Teresa and I decided to go ahead with it. I got to see many of the city's highlights and captured some wonderful shots with my Polaroid. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend to others.

It was great tour. 'Cause Gilbert was a really helpfull guide. Bu it is a shame that they can not tell about the history.
Maybe another guide for that reason can assist them about the history.
Thank you, it is a 5 star tour.

Had a great time on our Polawalk! Thomas gave us a nice intro to using the cameras (everyone loves Polaroids!) and then took us out and about in town and through some of the Christmas markets, combining both photo tips and history and culture. We ended up with a very enjoyable history tour and some nice mementos to take home. Would definitely do this again if we return to Vienna!

A great way to explore the city and create some precious memories/ souvenirs!
Thomas our guide (and co-founder of Polawalk) gave us a fascinating introduction to Polaroid photography and took us on a casual fun walking tour of Vienna.
It was a beautiful sunny afternoon, so the lightening was great. Thomas gave us lots of helpful ideas and directions on how to make the most out of our Polaroid shots.
At the end of the tour, we were invited back to the Polawalk office whereby they offered snacks/ drinks and we got to see the results!
We took away not just a fun experience but also precious, personal souvenirs. Highly recommend this if u are ever in Vienna!

I did both tours and had a great time. Gilbert was able to show me the heart of the city and was able to see more of Vienna then most people see on vacation. I highly recommend either tour for someone who wants to see the city either with the Polaroid or their own camera.

Participating in the PolaWalk was an amazing adventure, and a lot of fun. I learned how to use Polaroid camera, the Technics and also of how to create some artistic composition and angels. It's an excellent way to see the city, meet cool people and make wonderful Polaroid photos that give a feeling of modern and vintage glance of the city. It the end it is very excited to whose the photos that stayed as a nice souvenir.

I had a tour yesterday with my friend, and it was brilliant. I live in Vienna at the moment so I had already been to all the places we went to (you see all the main sights but remember - it's more a nice walk not an informative/historical tour) but it was great to see it from a different angle! I really for the first time looked at the intricate details of Viennese architecture and I got to have a lot of fun being a photographer! The guide was lovely and personable and at the end we went back to the really nice office and got to see all our photos and discuss them over a cup of coffee and a cake. They were professional but still very friendly! A brilliant tour and I would love to do it again - perhaps this time of underground Vienna and the graffiti :). Thank you for everything!

This is an unconventional and interesting way to see Vienna for the first time. I had arrived the night before and this did help orient me. It was a lot of fun learning how to use a Polaroid camera, and considering exactly what to photograph. You really need to think about what you want to photograph instead of snapping away...
