The tour was incredibly informative and enjoyable! We had a bit of a delay getting in and they were more than willing to push our tour back a bit to accommodate us. Loved it!

Lovely experience learning about both the city of Venice and the special cuisine. Flavia was an excellent host who taught us so much about the history and the unique neighborhoods. Restaurants were nice, quiet places. Food portions were generous. Nice wine pairings. I would highly recommend!
