Delicious, entertaining, interesting - a bit expensive
Clundhe, Sept 2025
We had the vegan delicacies tour of the Viktualienmarkt - a total of 2 hours, which was really very entertaining. The tasting bites on offer were delicious and it was also very interesting to learn how the individual foods are grown, processed or presented. Overall, I found the delicacies tour a bit overpriced and would therefore recommend it only to a limited extent.
Great experience

Good and interesting guidance. Great explanation, nice guide and good delicacies to try. The only drawback, our guide “Elke” had to keep the food on the tray. It would make sense if a small table were provided at the tasting points. Trying would be a little more relaxed as a guest!
Interesting and delicious tour of the Viktualienmarkt

The tour of the Viktualienmarkt was really great! Gina has guided and told us very entertaining. The delicacies from the market were very delicious, especially the pretzel and the antipasti. Unfortunately we only had 5 courses, the fruit in the end was missing. That really would have been a round conclusion. Didn't stop the whole thing. We were always fed up! This tour can be recommended without restriction.
Viktualienmarkt tour highly recommended

Itinerary
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.
