A guide vane wheel of a turbomachine, has a plurality of guide vanes, forming a blade row extending radially inward in a flow path of the turbomachine, and two borescope accesses. The guide vanes form two segments each with a plurality of guide vanes circumferentially spaced apart, with the two segments having the same, constant cascade pitch and the two segments spaced such that the respective outermost guide vane adjacent to the respective other segment has an enlarged spacing in the circumferential direction from the adjacent guide vane of the other segment equal to 1.3 to 1.7 times the cascade pitch, the sum of the increased spacings being equal to 3 times the cascade pitch. The increased distance between the respective two adjacent outermost guide vanes of the two segments creates an enlarged vane passage between these guide vanes where the borescope accesses are formed.
