Frequently Asked Questions

Is a food tour in Dresden worth it?

Absolutely! There’s no better way to experience the beautiful city of Dresden and its culture than a food tour with a local guide.

What is the most famous food in Dresden?

With so many tempting flavors in Dresden, it can be tough to pick a favorite. Locals and visitors alike enjoy the city’s fresh regional produce, including locally sourced meats, fish from nearby rivers, and seasonal vegetables. Dresden is also famous for its traditional Saxon dishes, such as hearty stews, sausages, and potato specialties, as well as its artisan breads and pastries. Don’t miss the city’s charming bakeries offering classic sweets like Dresdner Stollen and other local delicacies.

Are tourists welcome in Dresden?

Yes, absolutely. There’s an Dresden tradition, the passeggiata—the gentle evening stroll to see and be seen. It’s about enjoying the city’s beauty at a relaxed pace, and it’s a feeling we believe every visitor should experience in Dresden.

You’ll find the spirit of the passeggiata from locals when you connect with the city respectfully. It’s found when you support the family-run trattorias in Trastevere, help keep the ancient fountains pristine, and learn to navigate the beautiful, organised chaos of daily life. This is the authentic Dresden experience.

It’s this connection we create on our Eating Europe tours. We step away from the crowds and take you to the places locals truly love, introducing you to the people behind the food and the stories that make this city one of a kind.
