Hands-on Vienna cooking class in a local apartment: make chicken schnitzel and apple strudel from scratch, then eat together in 3 hours.
“This cooking class was an absolute highlight of our time in Vienna! Our kids had the best time and were fully engaged the entire experience. Everything we made was delicious, we happily went back for seconds of every dish and thirds of the strudel (it was that good!). The instructor was wonderful with our family and made the class both educational and fun. Highly recommend for families and anyone looking for a memorable, hands-on experience.”

“Please note this is inside someone’s apartment - it was very nice and worked well but just think it is important to know that! The guide was very informative and the class was interesting. Nothing we made was terribly hard and there were so many people on my day that it went by very fast, e each only did one thing instead of all doing all things. I would recommend overall”
