Private Venice Food Tasting Tour with Traditional Cicchetti & Local Wine

Discover the true taste of Venice on this private 2.5-hour food tour, where local flavors, history, and culture come together for a uniquely Venetian experience.

Begin your culinary journey at the iconic Rialto Market, a lively space filled with colorful produce and seafood from the island of Sant’Erasmo. Start your day the Italian way—with a fresh Espresso or Cappuccino and Cornetto—while your guide introduces you to the deep-rooted food traditions of the city.

Then, weave through Venice’s charming streets and canals to a traditional bacaro – a small, rustic tavern – where you’ll sip a local wine (ombra de vin) and sample cicchetti, the city’s famous small bites. These savory delicacies might include baccalà mantecato, marinated sardines, local cheeses, or salumi.

Along the way, your guide will share engaging stories about Venetian life, the spice trade, and the origins of its unique gastronomy, bringing each taste to life with historical and cultural insight.

Finally, your food adventure concludes with a sweet note—a scoop of premium gelato from one of Venice’s top gelaterie.
