“This was the first (and definitely not the last) food tour I have been on. What a pleasant surprise! Harry was fantastic taking us to secret gems along the way. We went to a coffee house, the Naschmarkt for cheese, a basement/dungeon type of restaurant that was not open but he knew the owner and we had a private wine tasting, for just a few to mention. Not only do you glimpse of the city but get to try sweets/food/wine etc. I would wholeheartedly recommend this tour. Thank you Harry!!”

2-hour private Vienna tour on coffeehouse etiquette and cake origins, including the Original vs Real Sachertorte story.
“When I booked the tour, it was not clear to me that we would NOT be going inside for tastings.i was expecting a historical tour but with stops INSIDE various cafes with small tastings of coffee and something small on the side. For that reason we skipped lunch. Instead we were told that the tour is only about history and we would be outside the whole time. The guide was accommodating and we did go inside and bought our coffee and a snack. Overall the tour is interesting but it's a HISTORY tour NOT cafe tour.”

“EXCELLENT GUIDE Aida made contact with us via WhatsApp prior to the tour so I felt reassured that she knew we would be meeting her and that the tour was arranged. Aida was delightful, so knowledgeable and engaginging. She showed us hidden gems of the city we would never have found if we had just followed a guide book, but where it was a private tour we could ask questions freely and she sensed our love of history and tailored the topics accordingly. It might seem an extravagance but I would say that if you want to get the most out of the city then a personal tour really gives…”
