East Berlin Food & History Tour

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

There are so many delicious dishes, but two of the most iconic Berlin foods are currywurst and eisbein. Currywurst is an iconic treat made from pork sausage and curry powder. Eisbein—which translates to “ice leg”—is a traditional German dish that’s pickled ham hock that’s cured, boiled, then roasted. It’s typically served with Sauerkraut and potatoes.

All food and drinks, as well as your professional local guide are included in the price you pay for the tour. No hidden charges or upsells here.

Our Berlin tours range in length from 3 to 4 hours.

Each tour’s area can be found listed as its “location”. For example, you might explore the city center or Friedrichshain!

Our tours have a maximum capacity of 12 guests. This ensures that our small groups are able to move unobtrusively through the neighborhoods we explore, respecting our surroundings and the locals that live in Athens.

We love welcoming solo travelers! All of our tours are open to individual guests.

You will discover a variety of German and international flavors, experiencing Berlin’s dynamic culinary scene from classic sausages to modern street food. Offerings may vary by day or season, but you’re sure to enjoy a delightful array of local flavors!

Yes, absolutely! Berliners are proud of their city and are happy to share it with visitors who embrace its unique character. The warmest welcomes are found when visitors appreciate the rhythm of local life—whether that’s by supporting independent Spätis and local artists, being mindful of the city’s quiet hours (Ruhezeiten) in residential Kieze (neighbourhoods), or simply showing respect for the city’s poignant historical memorials.

That spirit of mindful travel is at the heart of what we do. Our small group food tours are designed to connect you with the real Berlin, introducing you to the local families behind our favourite vendors and sharing the stories that make the city so special.

Our guides are all fluent in English, and of course speak German as well. For requests for tours in other languages, please contact us.

Yes! You are welcome to take photos and videos of the food and scenery throughout your tour. If you would explicitly like to get photos of fellow guests or your guide, we kindly ask that you get their permission first.

Tips for our lovely guides are not required, but they are appreciated!

No. While some tours may have one or two stops which other groups visit (can’t help it if they’re popular!), Eating Europe are proud that the majority of stops on every Berlin tour are restaurants and vendors who work exclusively with us.

We do! Please see the “Book a Private Tour” option or contact us, and we can arrange a private or custom Berlin tour to suit your specific needs.
