Spend six hours eating your way through Vienna with a small English-speaking group. Guide names include Christoph, Maria, Patrick, Mary Ann, Verena, and Wolfgang. Expect coffeehouse pastries, market tastings, schnitzel or goulash, Austrian wine or beer, and a classic Würstelstand, with public transport linking central Vienna to local districts.

“Had a nice day. Perfer protein before pastry :). Loved seeing all the districts, learning about travelling in and around the city. Mr Thomas was great. Maria was knowledgeable and personable, kind and caring. Would prefer more street food as the end Lunch was too much. Some street food and a wine at an outdoor gathering spot to gather a cool vibe vs fancy place would be our suggestion! Oh and some signature chocolate or something tasty, even a Port after lunch would be yummy. More talk about street food. Thank you.”

“This was a great food tour with Verena! She took us to some great places in Vienna and we sampled food while she told us stories about the food, the restaurants, and Vienna. She picked interesting places like Cafe Korb, owned by Susanne Widl, where she made sure we checked out the bathroom doors downstairs. Farmers markets are always interesting to check out in a new city or country and she took us to one where she said all the locals shop and I was shocked how cheap things were there. All the food was good, there was even ice cream swimming in vodka (at 11 in the morning! :-)…”
