Highlights
- Piazza del Municipio - This is our meeting spot. We always select the finest dishes to introduce you to our traditions, recommend the best restaurants, and ensure you have the ultimate culinary experience.
- Via Dr. Joseph Streiter - Here, we’ll visit a traditional Bolzano bar where you can savor delicious canapés with speck and Bauernschinken. Speck is uncooked, salted, and smoked pork aged from six months to two years, seasoned with a variety of spices that make it incredibly flavorful. It’s often served with traditional bread and pickled cucumber. Bauernschinken is a cooked ham flavored with the same spices used in the speck process, offering a unique and tasty cold cut.
- South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology - At one of the most typical and delightful restaurants in the area, you’ll taste the famous canederli, dumplings made of stale bread moistened with milk and bound with eggs and a small amount of flour. Alternatively, you can try spätzle, small dumplings made with wheat flour, eggs, water, and boiled spinach, topped with cream and speck—simply delicious.
- Ca’ de Bezzi - Here, we’ll sample the renowned beer. From delicate light beer to spicy strong beer, the South Tyrolean beer scene offers a diverse range.
- Piazza delle Erbe - Bolzano is also known for its bread, especially Laugenbrot and Brezen. Laugenbrot is made by immersing bread rolls in a lye solution before baking, sometimes stuffed with cheese. Brezen is a ring-shaped bread with a golden, shiny crust covered with grains of salt.
- Via della Mostra - Bolzano is also famous for its delectable desserts. In a well-known “Konditorei,” you’ll enjoy the typical strudel, the most famous dessert beyond our borders! This pastry is made from a thin sheet of dough rolled up with filling and baked. Thanks to the incredible variety of apples, this dessert is a true delicacy.
- Monumento a Walther Von der Vogelweide - This is where our tour concludes, but not without a delicious coffee first!

Additional Information
The Bolzano culinary expedition is a promenade through the heart of Bolzano, guided by a local ‘Culinary Enthusiast’, a friendly resident well-versed with each chosen dining spot, their culinary creations, and intriguing backstory. They will introduce you to the authentic local taste sensations. Our excursion blends prime gastronomy as a means of showcasing Italian lifestyle and culture with a walking exploration escorted by a local comrade. This is why we limit the group sizes for an authentic exchange and to provide undivided attention to each guest. Please bear in mind that the tours primarily operate in English, Italian, and German, with other languages catered for on request.

Food Family Fun - We had a wonderful time with Ellen enjoying great food and learning about the city of Bolzano. We were shocked at how much food we had at each stop and very pleased with the overall experience. Ellen was very friendly and fun! Adults and kids (boys 7&10) all had a great time! Highly recommend!
