Not what it seems not very good

We felt they just walking around we found better places. The places that the tour chose were not that good and some of the restaurants didn't even want us to go in. Very expensive and absolutely not worth the money. It's quite a rip off.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts, Claudia. We're saddened to hear that the experience did not align with your expectations. Our tours are carefully designed to introduce guests to a mix of local flavors, culinary traditions, and neighborhood stories that help provide a broader understanding of the city's food culture. While some guests discover new favorite spots through the tour, others may have different personal preferences when it comes to the venues and tastings featured. As we work with independently operated local businesses, the atmosphere and daily operations at each stop can vary, which is part of the dynamic nature of exploring an active local food scene. We appreciate your comments regarding the value and overall experience, as feedback helps us continue evaluating and refining our tours. Many guests have enjoyed the opportunity to explore Vienna through the combination of food, history, and local insight, though we understand that experiences can differ. Thank you again for joining us and sharing your perspective. We hope you'll consider giving us another opportunity in the future on one of our tours in Vienna or another city.

Secret Food Tour Vienna - DO IT!

Through no fault of hers, we joined our tour a little late while the group was just about finishing up at the first food stop. Elena was kind and accommodating, making sure we experienced the first taste and drink and never once made us feel like we were putting her or the group out. Elena navigated our group around with colorful vibrance, explanation and attention, received well by all. Elena built up our food surprise so suspensefully, she had everyone nearly drooling with anticipation by the tour's end! I would highly recommend Secret Food tours to anyone visiting Vienna for the first time!

Food & History combined

Zoltan our guide was excellent. He shared historical information about Austria while doing the food tour. He's very entertaining and there was never a dull moment. We appreciated more Austrian food culture. The tour was good value for money.
