What a blast! Our guide, Olympia, was engaging, knowledgeable, and very accommodating of food preferences. It was like a pleasant walk with an old friend (who happens to know a lot about the history of Venice). The food and wine were delightful! Be sure to state ahead of time your food preferences and show up hungry!!

It isn’t a proper meal. Rather than a lot of bread appetizers. Very full afterwards. Lots of knowledge and good tips about Venice. Tour guide was great!
