We will be in Vienna on April 16th and looking for recommendations for a private tour to get the highlights of the area. Any suggestions?
I can recommend Alexandra Stolba, contact her and specify your wishes and expectations.

Does she speak English? The website is not in English so it’s hard to know what her tours are like.
Hi, last time I went there were free tours (I think they are called red umbrella tours or smth) we were satisfied. At the end you can give some money to the tour guide, but nothing is mandatory! If you can't find it, I can maybe search for the link
Does she speak English?
Certainly. You need not to stick to one of her predefined tours should you want to put more emphasis on a special topic.
If your browser does not have a built-in translator you can add one to have German websites translated to English instantly.

Another recommendation:
Stefan Riedl has a very dynamic and witty style of presenting things.

I really like the Rick Steves audio guide Vienna City Walk. It was just perfect, and let me pause it and stop when I wanted to pop into a place and shop.
