This is the title given to tours that work on a donation basis (at the end you can give the guide what you feel the tour was worth). In our small company, we are confident enough to let you decide the value of the tour. You can not get a fairer system and this ensures that our guides give their best service every tour. The Food Tour is tip-based, but we charge a €2,61 Food Fee to compensate for the tasters we purchase for you and an €1,89 entertainment tax at the start of the tour.
We like to keep the groups small which is why there is a limit of 20 people. So if you want to be sure to join the tour and book a spot on our website right away.
