Authentic Viennese food experience that was equal parts educational, entertaining and DELICIOUS! Our guides Wolfy and Maxine were fantastic and very knowledgeable about Vienna food, history, and culture. I would highly recommend this tour and it’s a great value for the money because all the food and drinks are included. I’m so glad I didn’t waste my money on a Naschmarkt tour and opted for this. Truly one of the highlights.

We had an incredible experience with Haas & Haas, learning about the history of wine making in Vienna and sampling their wine to. Bernie was very knowledgeable and made sure the experience was fantastic. The shop itself was also brilliant for gifts/treats after the experience! Would definitely do again when in Vienna!

Amazing, peaceful and pleasant cruise across the Danube canal. I really recommend it!

Robert was amazing. Very nice! And even offered us water. We had a great tour

My family and I had the most amazing experience and exceptional service!
