This private food walk in Villach introduces Carinthian cuisine, from Kasnudeln dumplings and Reindling cake to ham and cheese from the valleys. You taste local specialties and learn how nearby Italy and Slovenia shaped the cooking.
Carinthia sits where three cultures meet, and you can taste it. Kasnudeln, dumplings with their typical crimped edge, are seen as the region's national dish, Reindling is the cake for feast days, and ham, cheese and honey come from the valleys around Villach.
Your guide takes you to selected spots in the old town for tastings and explains why the art of crimping the dumplings is harder than it looks. You also hear stories about the town fair, local customs and Villach beer.
This is a private tour: just your own group, your pace and plenty of time for questions. Our licensed guides are happy to adjust the focus to your interests before the day.
