Culinary tours in the Old Town
Experience culinary delights!
In cooperation with the City’s department in charge of the old town, the cafes and restaurants have come up with a format that tour guests can really enjoy: The Old Town's Culinary Tours. On three different routes, the participants learn interesting facts about the city and stop at scheduled "culinary stops." Depending on the stop, coffee and cake, snacks, entire lunches, regional specialties, special drinks, sweets or ice-cream are available. Get to know Monheim am Rhein from its tastiest side and book one of the tours – for example, as a team event, a different kind of Christmas party, a family outing or just for a few hours of fun with friends.
