Albert Square and nine city centre sites
One hour at the market with a local who knows it. The stalls, the stories, a small tasting of what the city is famous for, and the streets around the square. Small groups of up to 8, private groups on request, at your date and time, in nineteen cities.
Every city has its own route; this is the shape of the hour wherever you are.
At the agreed spot by the market, at the time you chose. Your host knows your name and carries a small LocalBini sign.
Through the stalls with the stories behind them: the tradition, the crafts, what to buy and what to skip, and the people who have had the same stand for decades.
The city's specialty, from Lebkuchen to bredele to trdelník, with the story of how it got here, and a warm drink where the market is known for one.
A short loop through the old town or to a second square, with the lights on, and the places your host would send a friend to afterwards.
The walk ends at the market or at a place to eat, with your host's tips for the rest of the evening.
A local from the LocalBini network who knows this market: someone who has grown up with it, works in the city or has a thing for its history or its food. LocalBini has more than 3,000 vetted hosts across 210 European destinations; for this site we chose the ones in the nineteen cities below.
