We went on a tour with Martin as a school class on Monday, April 7, 2025, and it was incredibly exciting. Personally, I can't remember any other tour or experience that was as educational, interesting, and personal as this one.

My class and I booked and took Martin's tour on Thursday, March 13, 2025. Apart from the fact that booking the appointment and all the organizational details were super easy and went smoothly, the tour was truly … Continue reading Very, very interesting. You think you know a lot about homelessness and drug addiction, but here you experience it firsthand. The tour has a deterrent and preventative effect, but without the condescending attitude my parents sometimes had. You won't hear, "Don't take drugs, they're bad!" Instead, you simply hear the life story of a former drug addict who lived on the streets, which makes you realize for yourself that drugs can completely ruin your life. And these stories speak for themselves.
Martin's authentic and natural style captivates the students, while also providing plenty of laughs and snickers. A truly unique tour of Vienna, one I'll definitely do again with another class and have already recommended to many of my friends and acquaintances. -

As a teacher, I had the privilege of experiencing the Wiener Nimmerland tour with my school class. This tour was an extraordinary and authentic experience that does not sugarcoat anything. Martin talks openly about his life on the street and his … Continue reading Fighting drugs. He manages to captivate the students from the beginning and show them the harsh consequences of wrong decisions.
The honesty and authenticity of Martin's stories leave a deep impression that will last a long time. His insight into the everyday life of an addict, his personal challenges and the perspective from the point of view of someone affected was particularly valuable. These intense stories led to thoughtful conversations and a deeper understanding among the students.
This tour provides valuable insight not only for students, but also for emergency services and ambulance personnel who only deal with homelessness and addiction on a sporadic basis. It helps to place sporadic experiences in a larger context and to develop a deeper understanding of the realities of life for addicts and homeless people. Overall, the tour had a lasting impact on my students and me and I can only recommend it to anyone who wants to deal with social issues. -
