Experience Details

Our Lausanne Food Tour is a walking tour around the old town. The tourist is guided by a "Foodie", a local "buddy" able to explain every detail of the selected restaurants, their preparations, and the relevant history/curiosities.

During our tour you will try some of the most iconic Vaudois dishes, such as the Rostis, le Paté Vaudois and the delicious carac, a small cake with an amazing and creamy chocolate filling!

Cheese from the region is a must-try, as well, and won't be missed during our tour.

We will end on a sweet note with a heartwarming cup of hot chocolate, one of the most iconic Swiss preparation!
