About this tour, from the operator

Venetian cuisine is famously hard to get to know—but not when you’re in the company of a local food lover who knows the city like the back of their hand. Hop from one bacaro (Venetian wine bar) to another sampling two different types of cicchetti and other local specialties accompanied by drinks at every stop. By the end of the night, your expert foodie guide will show you where to eat, how to eat, and what to eat when visiting La Serenissima.
