Gerhard Reus

Gerhard started as a driver at Rikschatours in 2012, a simple summer job that changed his life. What began as a side job became a turning point. Through encounters with guests from all over the world and inspired by their enthusiasm for Salzburg, he rediscovered Salzburg and found his passion for tourism, city history, and hospitality.

In the following years, the topic never left him. He worked in the hotel industry, became a state-certified Austria Guide, founded the Free Walking Tour Salzburg, and eventually built the Introducing Salzburg platform. When Rikschatours was officially handed over to him in 2022 by founder Claudia, the circle was complete.

Today, Gerhard leads the company with respect for its origins, with a clear focus on quality, humanity, and sustainable development. Even though he is no longer out and about with the rickshaw every day, he is present and accessible, and his personal touch shapes every experience at Rikschatours.
