We had the most enjoyable tour experience with Patrick our main guide and assistance from Maria. They were wonderful with their knowledge and other tips for us exploring this most beautiful city of Vienna. The food they organised for us was splendid from the street food sausage and goulash to the amazing Viennese pastries and desserts. We were really treated to a wonderful day that just flew by. It was hard to believe it was 6 hours. Being our first day in Vienna we got so much out of this tour and we highly recommend it to give you not only a great experience but also some smarts about getting around this wonderful place. Thank you again Patrick and Maria!

I went out the tour led by Verena, she was friendly and knowledgable about the city. I would have definitely missed the spots we went to and I truly experienced the city like a local, with markets and tucked away cafes. Definitely come hungry, and wear comfortable shoes!-
An excellent tour of Vienna and a wide range of food experiences. From the affluent city centre to the more hidden street markets and restaurants. The portion sizes are fairly small individually, so not over-facing, and if you want to skip something then no-one minds. Overall there is plenty to eat and you won't need to have breakfast beforehand! Our tour guide Marianne was extremely knowledgeable and friendly. She even bought us an umbrella when it start raining unexpectedly!
Have you ever had an experience that was so much fun that you wanted to roll back all your other reviews of similar tours to ensure this one had the highest rating ever? I do!! This tour was THE BEST!! Not only do you visit areas that you would normally never visit in Vienna, you literally are on a food and daytime pub crawl! Our guide (Christof) was so funny, fun, and knowledgeable. We went to a neighborhood coffee cafe, a street food trailer, a small side street local restaurant, a locally famous bakery, on and on and on... Great wine, beer, cakes, lunches (pre-lunch and then lunch!)... It was a crazy fabulous day!!
Amazing experience, I would recommend it to everyone! The best way to know Vienna and feel like a local, thank you so much to Christoph, amazing tour guy, he went an extra mile with us! We would like to come back and do the same tour, also thank you Tomazs amazing food! 10/10
This was without doubt the highlight of our trip to Vienna. We visited venues and markets that we would never have gone to on our own. Our guide Christoph was excellent and kept us entertained and informed throughout the whole trip. The food and drink was plentiful and delicious. We were given an insight into life in Vienna by Christoph who was so knowledgeable on every subject. The group was small and friendly- we thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend as a ‘must do’ in Vienna. Thank you Christoph!
We really enjoyed our tour yesterday with Peter! He was extremely knowledgeable and kept us enthralled with the history and culture of Vienna! Everything we ate or drank was delicious! Peter went over and above to ensure we had a lovely day!
This was a great way to kick off our stay in Vienna. Peter was super friendly and knowledgeable, and a wonderful Vienna host!
The best thing about food tours is you don't need to search 'great restaurants near me' or 'authentic Viennese food near me.' The guide takes you to the best of the best, showing you interesting stops, chatting about the culture and history and taking you beyond the tourist hot spots to absolute gems. The food was amazing - do not eat before you go! Peter was so knowledgeable about the history and culture of Vienna and spent more time and energy on us than he needed to! Thanks to him I could use public transport confidently, so thank you Peter!
Our guide knew quite an impressive number of eateries away from the center—each was a little gem. He interspersed our eating with an interesting conversation about Viennese society. The personal private tours allowed us to linger where we wished and discuss any and all topics to our satisfaction. We finished the tour with our stomachs and minds full and happy. Highly recommended.
This was the food tour of the year! We had every delicious food and drink Vienna had to offer.. Our tour guide Peter was born in Vienna and loves sharing his culture and traditions with visitors whom appreciate being educated on everything Vienna.. What a beautiful city. Wear your walking shoes and baggy pants.. I believe we were out about seven hours.. Thank you Peter.. it was perfect!
Great introduction to Austrian food and drink. Appreciated getting out of touristy areas. Excellent guide (Christophe) with Wolfy’s Adventures.
We had a great day exploring the markets and local food with Patrick. Definitely the best food we had in Vienna. Highly recommend this tour when you first get to Vienna. It really helped us figure out where to eat the rest of the time we were there.
Our guide, Peter, was fantastic. Got to know more about thx city of Vienna as well as the food. Went well away from the tourist centers to eat amazing and very local foods. Could not recommend it more. Wear good shoes. Lots of ground to cover and see!!
Kristohof walked our family all over Vienna tasting and drinking a wide assortment of foods, pastries, ice cream, and drinks. Each stop was amazing. Learned so much about Viennese foods and their preparation and culture.
Really enjoyed our tour with Mary Anne. She adjusted well to our walking speed, and introduced us to some truly local food and culture.
Hi, I went on a wonderful food tour with my husband and friend. It covered so much - not only did we learn about food itself, we also learned so much about local society and culture. We took the subway to go to a local market and saw a completely different other aspect of the city. It was so much more than a food tour. It went quite long - I was impressed at the guide's enthusiasm and energy. Thank you!
4 of us had the absolute pleasure of going on a wonderful 6 hour (actually went for 7 hours) private food and history tour. A very long tour I admit, but we had so much fun with Peter - world's best guide - the time flew by. I expected we would visit a couple of coffee cafes and, in accordance with their coffee culture, spend an hour or two at each with a food stop somewhere in between. We did partake of a traditional coffee cafe, but then we did so very much more. Peter has a gift for telling a story, for bringing history alive. He has an actors way of telling the tale which keeps you memerized and entertained. Bravo Peter, and thank you! We ate a LOT of new tasty foods, went to places that locals go and of which tourists are unaware. All the while learning the colorful history of beautiful Vienna. We all left the tour feeling utterly satiated, knowledgeable about Vienna's fascinating history and with a desire to visit Vienna again, physically a little tired but mentally wired, and with an abiding affection for our tour guide Peter. It was a truly and all around wonderful experience.
Christoph was an AMAZING tour guide. A fun person to spend the day with, SO knowledgeable, and very attentive to what we liked. This was definitely a highlight of our time in Vienna. He takes pictures and sends a follow up email that includes restaurant recommendations. We can’t thank him enough for a wonderful day. We felt like we got a very authentic food experience in Vienna. He also taught us how to use the public transport system, so this is truly a great tour for one of your first days there!
Really enjoyed Verena’s company and knowledge. The food was interesting and of the region . Not fast. Got just what we payed for. Great job. Thanks again to our guide
Peter shares Vienna's history and gastronomy with passion. Bars and restaurants are very well chosen and we discovered an unexpected quality of food. Quantity is much over than what we use to have in this kind of tours !
Amazing tour x food varied and more than plentiful x covered a vast area of Vienna giving different cultural experiences x Peter the guide was very knowledgeable, funny, and interesting Best goody tour we have done anywhere
What a fabulous first day in Vienna! Peter was an absolute perfect tour guide. His knowledge of history is only surpassed by his clear love for his native Vienna. He took the 2 of us all around the city - walking, on the subway, and on they tram. He introduced us to all the Vienna favorite food and drink. What a charm of a man in a beautiful city with such history and character
Tour was amazing with a great variety of food and knowledge of the history of city. Tour guide Wolfy was wonderful and did a great job giving us a great variety of food to represent Vienna
Absolutely wonderful! We had a great time and enjoyed seeing other areas of Vienna that were off the beaten path.
We had a great time with Wolfgang/Wolfi! Starting with a Viennese breakfast from Cafe Korb, not too far from Stephansplatz; we went over to Reumannplatz, a working class neighborhood, tried fresh fruits at the neighborhood market; grabbed a brilliant Austrian lunch on the way from there; had ice cream knodels along the way at a cute place named Eissalon Tichy (filled with kindergarten kids); visited Brunnenmarkt to try some street food; and wrapped up at a chic coffee place before heading back to base! Wolfi’s experience on the ‘trail’ showed well, and we were greeted with warmth everywhere! It was a truly enjoyable experience. Thanks again Wolfi!
The variety of the food was excellent. Patrick (our guide) took his time to explain why each stop was made and explained the background of the food. The plentiful amount of food was very surprising. Don't eat breakfast before your tour. The amount of walking was not too strenuous. We really enjoyed and appreciated Patrick. This is a tour I would whole-heartedly encourage people to take. The walk through the market was a sensory delight, with the sounds and smells. The food choices were a very good assortment of Viennese tastes. Patrick interacted well with both teenagers and adults. The culture of Vienna was explained as we walked through the city. Getting to spots that were farther apart we used the Metro system. Patrick explained how the system worked making our own travels around the city the next day much easier.
A must do if you have time. We had the pleasure to have Verena be our guide. She is very knowledgeable and beyond food, also share many of Viennaese custom. Great to understand how locals live and shop. We had a fun few hours with Verena and she had made our Vienna trip a very memorable one.
Henrietta was a great person to lead our tour. She was very informative and showed us how to eat like a local. We tried a wide variety of foods and drink which gave us the confidence to order for ourselves during our trip. We really liked the fact that we travelled on public transport which was so easy to use. We have enjoyed similar tours in different cities across Europe and have always had a great time; we would definitely recommend the tour to others wanting to capture a flavour of the city they are visiting.
Maria was a fantastic guide! She took us to the best local places to enjoy delicious local meals. We were open to any options and Maria did not disappoint. We would have never found the places she took us to on our own. We would book again and would ask for Maria - strongly recommend her!
Christof was a wonderful guide. I enjoyed the coffeehaus experience (lots of pastry) and the traditional lunch, but he made a special effort to find poppyseed pastry which is apparently a "home style dessert" not something found in fancy pastry shops. But we found some in the local street market and it was yummy. We also stopped at the Xmas Market in Spittlesburg as it was Advent.
Ornella was the perfect guide. We were so lucky to have a private tour with her (they split our group in 2 so our party of 4 was alone). I don't think I would change a thing! From the 3 markets we saw to all the amazing food of Vienna (the dumplings were a highlight for me) but all of the food was amazing. I will for sure recommend Ornella and your tour company to any friends or family visiting Vienna. What a treat!
Great guide who was knowledgeable and friendly. The pacing was great, and the different experiences and wide variety of local dishes were fantastic! We were with a small group, which made the tour special. I highly recommend it!
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! :-) But we also were shown some other things in Vienna like the amalienbad, Altmann & Kuhne with the miniature chocolates and Zum Schwarzen Kameel, a 400+ year old restaurant Beethoven used to eat at, with mini open faced sandwiches. We didn't eat here on the tour but Verena showed it to us and we went the next day and it was so good. Verena actually left us with quite a number of recommendations of things to see and we hit a few like the Art Museum, the outdoors elevator at MuseumsQuartier, Cafe Museum, etc later in our trip. We just didn't have enough time to hit all the places she gave us for homework though! Verena is very nice and a fantastic tour guide.
Take this tour! One of the better food tours I have been on. Not just for the food, but the utilize the Vienna Subway and show you the whole town, not just a single neighborhood.
This was an excellent tour for anyone who wants to learn the about the hidden gems of Vienna and wants to experience a variety of local foods. Verena was a lovely tour guide who shared her extensive knowledge of Vienna! Be prepared to eat A LOT!!! Thank you Verena & Wolfy!!
We had a great time on this excursion. It’s a great way to get acclimated to the city and taste lots of local food. Our guide, Verena, was amazing. Personable and knowledgeable. In short, she was an excellent guide!
It was very exciting! And it seemed like there was endless amounts of delicious food! Christoph, our tour guide, was wonderful. Our family really likes history so he made sure to incorporate that into our tour. The unique food paired with the great conversation made for an excellent adventure through Vienna. It was wonderful to run into Wolfie on our tour! We would definitely recommend and would do again!
In general, being on a private tour makes the experience more personal, instead of following a structured tour, it felt like you have a friend who is showing you around. In particular, Christopf was informative, conscientious and most of all, fun. He made the tour light and he did not make us feel like we're on the clock. Such a gentleman. You have to make the food tour a part of your trip.
Fantastic family experience in Vienna! Thanks to Wolfy and the team for a great experience. Pre-tour communication were great and everything went smoothly the day of. Our elementary aged children really enjoyed all the food, stories, and special attention they received. Wolfy even found a special workshop opportunity at the Zoom children's museum in Vienna and booked our family in for an afternoon time slot so we finished our tour with an experience selected especially for our children. Thanks for a tasty, filling(!) and fun way to discover Vienna!
My wife and I moved to Vienna to work and naturally migrated to all the tourist areas to eat and drink. My son, knowing that this is what I would do bought me this Tour for my birthday....what a present! We were met on the day by 2 guides, Wolfie and Patrick who treated us to an incredible day. We started the Tour at a traditional coffee house in the centre of Vienna. I would possibly not have eaten all the pancake (Kaiserscmarrn) had I known how much more was to come, but I did! We left the centre to start exploring the different districts and the mix of cultures, we had Turkish delight and coffee, Syrian flat bread, Austrian cheeses, we visited a Würstelstand for a beer and sauage and another for goulash. We experienced breads and krapfen.....the list goes on. We visited two vibrant markets with an array of stalls, I mean this Tour covered so much it was incredible! I would say to anyone who plans to visit Vienna to put this Tour at the start of the holiday, as it will show you so much and introduce you to places that as a tourist you would probably never see. They then follow up with an email listing all the places you went to with suggestions of many more. We were lucky to be the very first Tour since Vienna 're-opened' after COVID and it was great, so don't worry that nothing will be open and there won't be anything to see, because there is! I will be going back to these guys when we have family over to experience some of the other Tours thay do because this trip was fantastic....great guys and a great Tour, thanks both!!
Hands down, the best way to see the life of Vienna is with Wolfie. Wolfie took our family of 3 (including our 12 year old daughter) through a very local’s eye view of Vienna and we spent the day truly learning about the food, market and café culture of this amazing city. From an amazing chocolatier, to the very authentic Viennese coffee houses to the most incredible donut we’ve ever tasted, Wolfie led us through the city and helped us see it as a local. We visited incredible markets, ate humble but delicious Syrian street food, had authentic Turkish coffee, stopped for a snack and glass of wine at one of Anthony Bourdain’s favorite specialty cheese and meat shops, ate the most delicious sausages, had a tasting of local Austrian wines and more. Everywhere we went was exceptional and literally everywhere we went - even passing on the street - Wolfie was greeted as a friend with a shout out, a high-five, a handshake, or a hug. Everyone knows Wolfie. It was clear that we were being provided with a true insider’s tour of Vienna and most of the places we visited would have required a lot of local knowledge to even know to look for them. There is more than enough food and its best to come hungry. We ate our heads off! We can’t recommend the tour and Wolfie enough! Love him!
We had an incredible morning in Vienna with Wolfi! It was the best way to truly get to know the city, the lifestyle of the Viennese and ,of course, taste so many delicious local dishes! I would highly recommend this to anyone who loves food and local culture. Be sure to come hungry as you will get to try so many different dishes and you won’t want to miss a single one. Vienna Urban Adventures did an amazing job arranging the day and when you are with Wolfi or any of the tour guides you will get to truly feel like a local!
My husband and I took a private food tour with Patrick and had a truly wonderful time. We started with the most delicious Krapfen we had ever had and things only got better from there. Patrick took lots of time to educate us about what and where we were eating and got us to places we never would have found on our own. We took this tour the first day of our week in Vienna so, we knew what sort of culinary direction to go in moving forward and it did not disappoint. Also, remember not to eat or have coffee before the tour, you will leave totally stuffed and caffeinated!
My wife and I asked for a private food and Christmas market tour of Vienna and that is exactly what we got. Tour of different parts of Vienna we would not have explored on our own and some great food and drinks along the way. Would 100% recommend.
Our food tasting and walking tour with Verena Hellweger was absolutely fantastic. I would highly recommend this tour for anyone going to Vienna. Verena was simply outstanding and met all our needs. She took us to parts of Vienna that we likely would have never seen. I was stuffed by the time the tour ended. It was EXCELLENT +++++ Thank you very much!! It was the best tour we took during our Europe vacation!!!
I am almost hesitant to share my review as this tour is such a gem. In fact, it is possible that all future food tours have been ruined as a result of this experience. My husband and I booked a private food/coffee/market tour with Wolfie. We had been on small-group dinner tours in the past in Italy and Spain which were good. This was an entirely different experience. This was just remarkable -- a true glimpse into the foodie scene of Vienna. Wolffe was honest, delightful, and well-versed in all things pertaining to Viennese food and Austrian culture. Please note that an obscene amount of food was consumed on this tour. We drank coffee, ate apple strudel/donuts/ice cream, sampled fruits at the market, had most divine sausages and fresh horseradish, tasted the best goulash, experienced turkish coffee, and ended with rich chocolates. I loved that we used the fantastic public transportation system to journey to all different districts. We saw neighborhoods that most tourists do not see, which just added to the richness of Vienna as a city. If you want to truly experience local food culture in Vienna, do yourself a favor and book this tour ASAP! Thanks Wolfie!
Cannot say enough about Patrick and this tour. First of all DO NOT EAT before going on this tour. The food and drink keeps on coming. Patrick methodically brought us through a variety of food, coffee and drink tastings throughout the Vienna neighborhoods that were sooooo delicious!!! He talked about the history of many of the food establishments we visited and made our last day in Vienna very special. Would highly recommend this tour!
Our guide Patrick did a great tour for us, showing many excellent places in the real neighborhoods of Vienna, most of them well away from touristy areas. We sampled many foods from savory to sweet and Patrick’s narrative about foods, coffees and the local area were terrific. Don’t bother eating before this tour, you will be happily full when you finish. Also, much of the travel is by Metro, with a little walking, so it is easy on the feet. We have had food tours before in several cities and this is the best.
Our guide, Kerstin, offered an absolutely amazing tour of Vienna!! She was warm, inviting, and curated a tour of the Vienna cafe life that was the highlight of our trip. All of the stops offered not only amazing food and relevant history, but also allowed us to interact with locals in a very genuine and meaningful way. Kerstin not only enlightened us with knowledge of the food scene in Vienna, she shared her love of the city and gave us tips on sights worth seeing, how to maneuver public transportation, and even recommended other restaurants to visit on our own. Meet-up details were easy; wear comfy shoes and bring a water bottle. Highly recommend!!!
