Ingrid Schak
Born and raised in Vienna, Ingrid studied languages at the University of Vienna. After an MA degree she wrote her PhD thesis in Italian linguistics. Following her love for Italy, she taught for a year in Florence. Back in Vienna, she became a teacher and worked in various schools, universities and professional education institutions in Austria.
Travelling and connecting to different countries, cultures and people has always been an important part of Ingrid's life. After retraining for a career in tourism, she became a tour manager and a Licensed Tourist Guide in Austria. Exploring the links between Austria and other European countries is one of her passions.
Ingrid was very knowledgeable and engaging.
Ingrid was super, very knowledgeable. Very easy to communicate with. Sometimes it was crowded and a bit difficult to hear, but I’m not sure you could do anything about that unless you could have a special early entrance.
The tour was exactly what my mother and I were looking for. Ingrid was so knowledgeable without being professorial. She was a joy to walk around with and really gave us the feel of Vienna. There is nothing to improve, really. I have taken many Context tours and have been very pleased by all. Keep up the good work!
