## Why each made the list

- **A Venetian Evening: Wine Tasting and Cicchetti with a Local Guide** — An evening of six cicchetti and a sweet with prosecco, three dry regional wines including a natural one and a dessert wine, in bars chosen for the food rather than the view. The guide waits ten minutes and no longer, and vegetarian plates need notice. 4.94 from 156 reviews for 3h.
- **Venice by Night: Highlights & Hidden Gems Tour** — A short walk after dark when the crowds thin, from lit landmarks to quiet squares and canals, with legends told by a licensed local guide. Sold as small groups or as a private version with pickup from your hotel or restaurant in central Venice; tips are at your discretion. 4.87 from 136 reviews at €83 per person for 1h 30m.
- **Venice: Private After Dark Tour and Gondola Ride** — A private evening walk through the dark stories of Venice, past St Mark's Square, the Rialto and the house where Casanova died, finished with half an hour in a gondola under the Bridge of Sighs. Food, drinks and tips are extra, and the price is listed per person. 4.83 from 82 reviews for 2h.
- **Venice: Ghosts & Murders - Mysterious Tales of San Marco Area** — An evening walk through the dim alleys around St Mark's with a licensed Venetian guide, reading the carved hearts, engravings and dark corners that carry the city's murder and magic stories. Gratuities are extra and the route stays outdoors, so no palace or basilica visits. 4.72 from 140 reviews at €49 per person for 1h 30m.
- **Venice Evening Food Tour: Bites, Drinks & Sit-Down Dinner** — Nine tastings across four Cannaregio stops that end in a sit down dinner on a square, with spritz, wine and cocktails along the way and gelato to finish. It is built for adults, allergies must be flagged ahead, and venues change with the season. 4.66 from 155 reviews at €53 per person.
