“This adventure was so much more than I expected. We had a group that was a perfect size of 8 people so we could easily travel from one part of the city to the next. Our guide, Maria, was very informative about the culture of different desserts we had. Being within our first few hours of landing in Vienna, she also helped us navigate the public transportation system both during the tour and with guidance for our next few days there. She even gave us a follow-up email with the names of the foods we had and their locations.”

3.Typical Austrian Food Tour with Coffee House Visit

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 159 reviews · 4 hours · from $176

Vienna food tour starting at a classic coffee house, then Naschmarkt cheese, leberkäse, sweets, and Austrian wine cellar tastings.

“Harry was an excellent guide, one of the best we’ve had across several food tours in different countries. He was personable and funny, and planned the tour in a way that allowed participants to have enough of everything without overeating part way through. His pairings were excellent, and every stop was a different aspect of Viennese culinary culture. He supplied guests with handouts of personal recommendations before the tour was over to ensure that we had ideas of where to continue our tour of Austrian cuisine. We would recommend this as a great option early in someone’s schedule to learn what to eat and get a lay of the city!”

★★★★★★★★★★4.8 · 53 reviews · 1 hour - 150 minutes · from $42Best value

Experience Vienna’s coffee house culture with guided tastings, stories, sweets, and a lesson in Wiener Melange vs Cappuccino.

“Der Besitzer war sehr nett, tolle location, ich hätte mir jedoch mehr Verkostung erwartet. ~35€ für einen Espresso und einen Filterkaffee und dazu 20 min (dafür interessante) Geschichten über Wiener Kaffee zu hören, finde ich preisleistungs technisch nicht okay. Da kommt man für 2 Personen auf 70€. Wenn wenigstens ein wiener Melange dabei gewesen wäre, hätte das bereits das Erlebnis um einiges verbessert! Schade.”
