Frequently Asked Questions

Is a food tour in Roskilde worth it?

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

What is the most famous food in Roskilde?

Roskilde offers a delightful culinary scene that reflects both local traditions and modern tastes. Visitors can enjoy fresh seafood from nearby fjords, including fish and shellfish caught locally. The city is also known for hearty Danish dishes, artisanal cheeses, and farm-to-table ingredients. Cozy bakeries serve up traditional Danish pastries and breads, while charming cafés provide the perfect spot to sample seasonal treats and locally brewed beverages.

Are tourists welcome in Roskilde?

Yes, absolutely. There’s an Roskilde tradition, the passeggiata—the gentle evening stroll to see and be seen. It’s about enjoying the city’s beauty at a relaxed pace, and it’s a feeling we believe every visitor should experience in Roskilde.

You’ll find the spirit of the passeggiata from locals when you connect with the city respectfully. It’s found when you support the family-run trattorias in Trastevere, help keep the ancient fountains pristine, and learn to navigate the beautiful, organised chaos of daily life. This is the authentic Roskilde experience.

It’s this connection we create on our Eating Europe tours. We step away from the crowds and take you to the places locals truly love, introducing you to the people behind the food and the stories that make this city one of a kind.
