⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Incredible Venice Food Tour with Alessia!
Our food tour with Alessia was truly one of the highlights of our time in Venice! From beginning to end, everything was absolutely perfect. She chose such wonderful stops that felt authentic and gave us the opportunity to experience Venice through its food, culture, and history — and everything we tasted was DELICIOUS!
Alessia was incredibly kind, warm, knowledgeable, and so easy to spend time with. She shared so much interesting information along the way without ever making the tour feel like a history lesson. We learned a ton, ate incredibly well, and had such a fun time doing it.
One of the things we appreciated most was the pacing. After several days of sightseeing in Italy, we were definitely feeling all the walking, and this tour was perfect — not too much walking, plenty of time to enjoy each stop, and never rushed. It was such a relaxing and enjoyable way to experience Venice.
You can tell Alessia genuinely loves what she does and loves sharing Venice with people. She made us feel completely comfortable and taken care of from the moment we met her.
Perfect locations, amazing food, fascinating information, great pacing, and an absolutely wonderful guide. If you are visiting Venice, book the food tour and ask for Alessia! We cannot recommend her enough. Five stars all around! 🇮🇹🍷🍝✨

The tour was fabulous! Our guide, Barbara, was absolutely amazing! She was so personable, passionate and made every moment enjoyable. We are a family of five with 3 grown children and it was a fun experience for us to share together. We thoroughly enjoyed the history of the food, wine and the areas in which we travelled through.

What is a cicchetti tour in Venice?
A cicchetti tour in Venice is your chance to eat like a local. You'll hop between bacari—Venetian wine bars—sampling traditional small bites (cicchetti), sipping wine or spritz, and uncovering a side of the city most visitors miss.
Where will we go on the tour?
You’ll explore the Dorsoduro and San Polo neighborhoods—home to some of the best cicchetti bars in Venice. These areas are local favorites, rich in history and low on tourist traps.
Will I be full after the tour?
We get this question a lot! With 7 tastings, including a pasta course, dessert, and four drinks, this tour is more than enough for a full meal for most people.
Can I find the best cicchetti in Venice on this tour?
Yes! We’ve curated stops based on flavor, authenticity, and local love—so you’ll taste some of the best cicchetti Venice has to offer.
How many people are on the tour?
We keep groups small (max 10) for an intimate experience—more like a night out with friends than a formal tour.
Is this a good experience for solo travelers?
Yes! Many of our guests come solo and leave with new friends. This class is warm, welcoming, and a great way to connect over food.
What makes this different from other cicchetti & wine tours of Venice?
We go deeper. This isn’t just a bar crawl—it’s a story-driven, flavor-packed experience led by local experts who love Venice (and know its best-kept secrets). Plus, we find the special, small local businesses that deserve a spotlight and reveal the real side of Venice.
