Here we will visit a traditional Bolzano bar. Here, you can taste delicious canapés with speck and Bauernschinken. Speck is uncooked, salted, and smoked pork that has been aged anywhere from six months to two years. It is incredibly flavored with a variety of spices that make it so delicious. Often served with the traditional bread types and pickled cucumber. Bauernschinken is a cooked ham flavoured with the same spices used in the speck process, a unique and tasty cold cut.

In one of the most typical and delicious restaurants in the area, you'll taste the famous canederli, dumplings made of stale bread moistened with milk and bound with eggs and a tiny amount of flour.

We had a wonderful time with Ellen enjoying great food and learning about the city of Bolzano. We were shocked at how much food we had at each stop and very pleased with the overall experience. Ellen was very friendly and fun! Adults and kids (boys 7&10) all had a great time! Highly recommend!

Gruppo di 5 di cui 2 Italiani e 3 svizzeri. La guida ha dovuto spiegare in inglese e tra di noi si parlava in francese. Non era assolutamente chiaro che il tour sarebbe stato in lingua diversa dall’italiano Itinerario un po’ a caso e ripetitivo. I posti per la degustazione non erano pre concordati e si doveva discutere tutte le volte La guida, molto gentile e premurosa, non è di Bolzano, cosa che mi sarei aspettato.

Se volete vedere la famosa mummia ozi vi conviene prenotare in anticipo. Bolzano è proprio da vedere,non avevamo l albergo vicino all autostrada e ci siamo mossi con l auto,ma volendo ci si può muovere molto agevolmente anche con i mezzi. Le strade per chi giuda sono un po' complicate perché loro hanno la corsia fissa dappertutto per autobus e Pullman e le altre sono sempre di preselezione e quindi devi essere nella corsia giusta se no volano multe. Bolzano è molto turistica ha un parco grandissimo e molto verde in pieno centro dove si trova anche un bel castello e vicino al castello c'è la seggiovia per andare in val di Renon, noi siamo andati che c'era un po' di nuvole e vento quindi non siamo saliti fino a la ma dalle informazioni che ci sono in internet e proprio un bel posto vedere.Bolzano è pieno di viette molto caratteristiche con delle belle chiese e case decorate stile tedesco molti ristoranti con i tavolini all aperto,ci sono piazze grandi con il mercato noi abbiamo girato dalla mattina fino al tardo pomeriggio e di sicuro non abbiamo visto tutto. Vi consiglio di andare come prima tappa al castello dove trovate una cartina della città. Ci ritorneremo sicuramente.

Abbiamo assaggiato alcuni cibi tipici della zona in locali storici del centro città. Elisa, la nostra guida, ci ha dato spiegazioni dettagliate su usi e consumi degli altoatesini illustrandoci i piatti che abbiamo assaggiato ed è stata molto esaustiva e competente.

Abbiamo parenti in Alto Adige che ci hanno consigliato di provare questo tour per assaggiare i migliori piatti della tradizione. Scelta molto azzeccata, tour molto gustoso e originale, la ragazza che ci ha accompagnato è stata molto gentile ed esaustiva nelle spiegazioni e siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti di tutte le scelte gastronomiche. Davvero un ottimo modo di trascorrere qualche ora in totale sicurezza e relax!
