We LOVED this tour. Andrei and Téo were excellent guides and teachers. We visited markets and food stalls in the city center and beyond, had the opportunity to learn the tram system, and got to hear all about growing up in Romania. Andrei, our main guide, also gave us insight into the revolution in 1989 and the current political climate. We learned about so much more than food! And we were stuffed and happy by the end.

I met with Marius...on time. He explained the tour, and we set-off. On the way he explained and pointed out landmarks of importance and answered the hundreds of questions I had. When it got to the dishes/snacks he once again explained everything so that the right choice could be made. What I loved most was that we sat with the local patrons at the market in Fabric and when we went for the drinks we sat in the square opposite the street...I travelled like a local and had a wonderful time. I definitely recommend this tour. Marius is a fantastic guide.
Great guide, great food!

This tour was a lot of fun. We have been a many food tours but this one was the best. Roberta was an amazing guide and very knowledgable about the local cuisine and history. She knew all the best spots we couldn't have found on our own. Thanks Roberta!

The Timisoara Food Tour was fantastic in terms of pacing and the amount/quality of the food. Our guide was knowledgeable, thoughtful, and you could tell loves Timisoara and Romania. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who wants to learn about the different cultures of the Banat region and some Romanian history. We will definitely be back to Timisoara! Thanks for the great times, Sergiu!! Jim and Ashley

I must say that there is a looooooooot of food, very good food. It was a special edition of the food tour, it was only with burgers and beer. It's best not to eat the day before, so you can taste everything :)) The tour starts near Bălcescu Square and goes around the city until you reach Traian Square. During the tour, you pass through 5 restaurants, most of them made mini burgers especially for the tour. It's interesting to compare the tastes, sauces and buns with each other. In addition to food, we also stopped at 2 places with beer. I didn't taste it myself, but the people around me seemed excited and very pleased. Between restaurants we were told about architecture, architectural details especially and their meaning. You can tell that the tour was a success, at least for me and the person who accompanied me, because out of the 5 food places we visited, to 4 of them we returned to and go to frequently.
The best way to learn about the history, food and people of your city!!!

It was a great way to experience the local restaurants in a city that I wasn't familiar with. The food combined with stories about the history of the city and the people facilitated an amazing experience. After the tour I re-visited over half of the restaurants and planning on visiting the rest shortly. The your was an overall great experience and would definitely do it again, thanks, Vic!!!
