Walk, eat, learn, and eat again! And again! : ) - Annabelle was amazing! She tailored our experience to our interests and palates, and made sure we tried special and unique foods of Salzburg. It was one of the most fun excursions we’ve ever been on as there’s no better way to appreciate a culture than through its cuisine. Book this trip—and arrive hungry!

Awesome Side Quest to Munich holiday. - This was an amazing trip. We have been to Munich before and decided to add a little day trip to our weekend. Salzburg was perfect. Annabelle gave us a tour of the city including history, cool points, little insider tips and, of course, delicious foods. You can somewhat tailor the food choices to your preference. It was nice that my husband could continue to sample beer and I could sample the wine!! Would highly recommend, if you are considering it, just go ahead and do it!

Great tour in a beautiful city - Our guide for the tour was Annabelle and she was great. She was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the city and its history. We went the week before Christmas so the festive markets were in full swing, and I couldn't think of a better time to have gone. The food was delicious and there was plenty of it. Fantastic experience!

Great way to spend the day in Salzburg - We had a great day with Tanja. The weather was cold and rainy but we still had fun and hit all the sites and enjoyed the food.
