Definitely a great experience
Tanja was a great tour guide! She took us to some key spots where we really got a great sense of the local cuisine (which is exactly what we were hoping for as one of our first things to do upon arriving in Vienna from the US). She was really easy to talk to and made some great suggestions. Would highly recommend, but come hungry!

Highly recommend Vienna private food tour
We really enjoyed our private food tour of Vienna with Tanja. She was very friendly and engaging, and her insights into history and tradition made the experience about more than just the food. Our two teenage boys (14 and 17) said it was one of the highlights of the trip. Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: We are so pleased to hear your tour with Tanja was so well enjoyed, especially by two teens! We will be sure to pass along your kind words to Tanja, and thank you very much for taking the time to share your experience with us. We hope to see you again soon!

Fabulous tour with LivTours in Vienna!
Fabulous tour with LivTours in Vienna! It was our first time visiting the city and the food tour itinerary took us through the heart of the history area. Our guide, Sebastian, was wonderful and managed to tell us pertinent bits of history between delicious food stops, explaining how food and culture are always intertwined. The food stops were very well chosen - we had some things that we would not have tried otherwise and at our very elegant sit-down restaurant stop it was fantastic to have a choice of a few classic dishes to try - we each had something different. The younger people on our tour loved the cake and coffee stop at the end of the tour and here too they loved getting to pick which of the beautiful cakes they each wanted. And an impromptu waltz with our guide in St. Stephen's Square was a special moment we will all remember from our trip to Vienna with LivTours! I would highly recommend this to first time visitors to Vienna or to return visitors who want to go more in depth and spend some time with a local, hearing stories of the history of this beautiful city.
Response from the operator: What a delightful review—thank you so much for sharing your experience! It sounds like your food tour with Sebastian was truly a memorable adventure through the heart of Vienna. We’re so glad you enjoyed the mix of history, culture, and, of course, the delicious food! It's wonderful to hear that you were able to try new dishes and have such a unique experience with the cake and coffee stop, plus the waltz in St. Stephen's Square—a moment to cherish forever. Your recommendation means the world to us, and we’re so happy you had such a fantastic time exploring Vienna with LivTours. We hope to welcome you again in the future for more unforgettable experiences! Thank you for choosing us!

Take this tour and ask for Nora!
We thoroughly enjoyed this tour with its varied stops and good portions (small plates so we could taste more) in different areas of the city. Nora was a fantastic guide - an insider expert not only in food culture and history but also in fun gift giving and local anecdotes that made the tour so memorable and fun. This was our four food tour on this trip and our entire family gave the stops/food/Nora the top reading!

Why this scores 50
The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Vienna.
How much does Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour cost?
+
Prices start at $432 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Vienna usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Vienna is not rushed.
Is Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 50 out of 100, which we label "Worth a Look". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Vienna, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Vienna can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Vienna and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Vienna Culinary Experience: Private Guided Food Tour start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Vienna within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Vienna?
+
On Outty we rank every Vienna experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Authentic Vienna Food Tour inc. lunch, street food, 3 drinks, Vienna Food Tour: Coffeehouses, Markets, Lunch & Street Food, Budapest Small-Group Day Trip from Vienna. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Vienna?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Vienna?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
