Overview

Guidekin summary

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.

From the guide

Enjoy real Venice away from the tourist crowd led by a young local guide. A relaxing 3 hours street food and wine walking tour around the alleys and the fine wine bars of Venice to try the best selection of cicchetti (Venetian-style tapas) and sip various regional drinks. Bars have been carefully selected based on the quality of their food/drinks and the authenticity of the location. The tour offers a selection of local prosecco, natural wines and more drinks, all originally from the Veneto region. All our guides are local, young, passionate about Venice and its cuisine and, of course, professionally licensed. The wine experience combines insights into Venice's culture, its rich history, arts and daily habits. Our commitment is to show you Venice the way it really is not the way tourists want to see it. This tour has been designed for real foodies and travelers.
