Mobile ticket
Get ready to eat your way through Venice with a delicious food tour in Cannaregio and the historic Jewish Ghetto! This progressive lunch or dinner takes you off the tourist track and into the heart of real Venetian life, where locals sip, snack, and savor every bite.
Kick things off with a classic Venetian tramezzino at a historic bakery, then dive into cicchetti culture with a glass of Prosecco col fondo and a tasty bite at a cozy bacaro. Next, enjoy a traditional Venetian main dish at a family-run trattoria, paired with a crisp white wine from Veneto.
No Venetian food tour is complete without a spritz! Learn how to make this iconic drink before pairing it with two must-try cicchetti—baccalà mantecato and saor. Finally, end on a sweet note with your choice of creamy tiramisù, a festive frittella, or artisanal gelato.
Wander through charming alleys, taste your way through centuries of tradition, and experience Venice like a true foodie!

5.00Flavia was our tour guide today. She is just amazing, much more than a fantastic food tour. Flavia is so passionate about Venice and we learned so much about the history of the city. We went to places that we never would have found as tourists, the real Venice. The food stops were sumptuous and authentic. We would highly recommend this tour, thank you Flavia. Anne and Rosie.
Excellent Food Tour
