Frequently asked questions

Is the tasting included in the tour price?

The tour fee covers your guide and the programme. Food and drink you sample along the way are settled directly on site, and we go through that with you beforehand.

Can allergies or dietary needs be taken into account?

Please let us know about allergies or dietary requirements when you book, so your guide can adjust the tasting stops accordingly.

Is the Naschmarkt open every day?

On Sundays far fewer stalls are open, so on that day we shift the focus more towards the coffee house and old town. We agree the best weekday with you when booking.
