★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 749 reviews · 5 hours (approx.) · from $171

Spend five hours eating your way through Vienna with guides such as Christoph, Peter, Maria, and Kristof. Visit Naschmarkt, Favoriten, Brunnenmarkt, and Neubau for pastries, chocolate, lunch, street food, three drinks, and coffee. Small groups reach local neighborhoods most visitors miss.

“We’ve done food tours all over the world and this food tour was EXCEPTIONAL! Kristoff was an amazing guide, taking us to places all over the city that are off the beaten path - and most of all- delicious! My 11 year old son enjoyed the tour just as much as I did. We tried Viennese specialties, local dishes, treats and drinks- all while Kristoff gave us information about the city, country, food and culture. I can’t recommend this tour enough - it was so much fun. You’ll leave very full and won’t need a dinner reservation.”

★★★★★★★★★★4.0 · 451 reviews · from $73Best value

Travel by Slovak Lines bus from Vienna to Bratislava, then join a one-hour walk through the compact old town with a local guide such as Daria, Maria, or Jarmila. Choose coffee and cake, lunch, or lunch with beer tasting, then spend four hours exploring on your own.

“Our guide V is wonderful. She was knowledgeable and very attentive even there were only two of us. She shared with us stories of Bratislava and pointed out many details which tourists normally wouldn't have noticed. My husband and I felt really lucky to have her as our guide. Lunch in a local restaurant with a history is a bonus.”
