About this trip

Join us for a long weekend in our home turf, New York City, this time, in January!


Together, we will visit the city´s latest vegan hot spots and hit up some long-time favorites of ours. Some surprises will be included as well!


Expect lots of amazing food, new friends and an unforgettable weekend in the city we love!


Note that the itinerary, especially in terms of restaurants, is subject to change since restaurants, sadly, sometimes close unexpecedly.


We will be getting around mostly by walking (weather permitting) and public transportation, which also involves taking starts up and down.

Why January?

Obviously, none can predict the weather but we can say that recent winters in New York, have, for the most parts, been rather mild.  By New York standards, that´s anything from 23 F/-5 C to 41 F/5 C. It can, occasionally, be much colder or even warmer. Since moving here 14 years ago, I have seen anything from -4 F/-20 C to 59 F/ 15 C, even in January (we have had a few years where we had to turn on the AC for Christmas).


So, why did we choose January for this next weekend, you wonder?


Our main reason is considerably cheaper hotel costs! January and February see the lowest hotel prices of the year and we would like to extent this benefit to you!


Deals on Broadway shows and attractions: typically, many Broadway shows as well as popular NYC attractions offer 2-4-1 deals in the slower season, which means even more savings!


Once the busy holiday season is over, people tend to stay home more, eat out less and restaurants feel that dip! By doing a tour in January, we can support them during this slower time.


See NYC with fewer tourists! Cold weather means fewer tourists, so shorter lines and fewer crowds overall.


Those are just some of the reasons we decided to give this a try!

could not have had a better time with Verena on this amazing vegan adventure, Berlin, Prague and Vienna! If you are considering this trip, think no more just go😁

Verena curated a wonderful weekend experience. The variety and quality of food was amazing. I was especially pleased that most dining was family style with opportunities to taste and savor many dishes. I highly recommend this tour for exploring NYC.

I loved this Berlin-Prague-Vienna vegan food tour with Verena! Verena is an amazing host who takes the time to make sure each day is balanced so you get to know each city without being overwhelmed. The restaurants were well thought out and delicious! Verena is also very warm and caring, which makes it feel like you are vacationing with a friend. I will definitely do another travel vegan food tour with her. I highly recommend her and her tours!

This was an excellent trip! Verena, our guide, took us to experience creative vegan food off the beaten path. She had a nice mixture of free time and structured activities too. Would recommend.
