Highlights
  • Viktualienmarkt - Viktualienmarkt, who doesn’t make your mouth water at this word? An incomparable aroma unfolds here on 22,000 sqm: delicatessen and vegetables, fish and meat, bread and cheese, flowers and juices, fruit and antipasti, eggs and potatoes. Diversity and the highest quality are what make the market so attractive. We try delicacies from up to 8 stands and have, for example, prepared these delicacies for you: • Refreshing or warming organic welcome drink - prepared for you depending on the season • hearty sausage specialties • Double-baked farmer’s crust bread • Bavarian antipasti • Munich’s best fresh pretzels • exquisite cheese variation • exotic and regional fruit • freshly squeezed fruit juice We start our tour at the Isartor, where we are given a welcome drink from the Demeter-certified St. Michaelshof. We walk along the old city wall until we get to the Viktualienmarkt. At Bablers Räucherkistl we can look forward to a plate with smoked sausage specialties. We also serve the famous and multi-award-winning double-baked farmer’s crust bread from Bäckerliesl, which, at over 90 years old, is the oldest woman on the market. Of course, vegetarians are not neglected either: we offer an exotic fruit platter from the neighboring fruit and vegetable shop. Countless stories during the tour lead us through the history of the market to the present: How did the Viktualienmarkt actually come about? When did the market women dance? Where do market people take their goods to in the evening? How do you get to a stand and how much do stand owners have to pay to the city? At the Sauren Eck we taste fresh antipasti with olives, pickled vegetables and various seasonal specialties. Let yourself be surprised! There are also fresh pretzels - praised by many Munich residents as the best in the city - from Karnoll’s bakery and coffee shops. Finally, we have prepared a plate with delicate cheese specialties, because it is known that this closes the stomach. Try Munich’s best obazdn and unusual cheeses. To round off the tour, there is still a freshly squeezed juice for each guest. In addition to trying, we answer your questions, introduce the stands and stand owners and show you some unknown corners of the market.

Additional Information

Trying is about studying - on this tour we enjoy typical delicacies in addition to historical and current background information from various market stalls. A variety of culinary discoveries and delights await you. Due to our numerous partners on the market, we put together a different selection of tasting stations for each tour. We will no longer eat our market delicacies directly in the middle of the market, but on the edge, as we have more space there.

Very good and entertaining tour - We participated in the Viktualienmarkt tasting tour and were all very enthusiastic about the tour. I would recommend everyone to participate. Even for people who have lived in Munich for years, it was very interesting. The tour guide was very likeable and did great.

Delicious from the Viktualienmarkt with lots of information about the market and the dealers - We started on time at the Isar Gate. Our guide, Gert, introduced himself as Ur-Bayer, a Munich Kindl, Kinheit in Lower Bavaria, school days in Munich. We were not fed with annual figures but with samples from the Viktualienmarkt: Raw sugar juice, starters from the ACID CORNER, fresh pretzels, sausage platter from the butcher's row opposite and finally a small cheese platter for everyone. Gert knows its victual market, the dealers and the goods. That was very entertaining and delicious. No one went home hungry. Highly recommended!

Great tour also for locals.. - Guide Ute was great! I have rarely met someone who knew so much about the city and was able to provide information on peripheral areas. It was also interesting for Munich residents and you really feel full afterwards! ;-) The only thing missing from the tour was something "fishy". Perhaps something could be done in that regard in the future.

Frustrating - The description needs to be more detailed as to what language is used on the tour. This tour was given in German only. Since we don't speak German, the tour was basically useless to us. A waste of $300. Too bad because I was looking forward to this.

Taste tour? - Long-winded explanations and from at ‘Probiertour’ I imagined something thoughtful. Especially at the price! Sorry, but not recommended if you are not interested in who laid which stone at the Viktualienmarkt
