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!

5.00Anna was so kind and fun with my family of 6. She made us feel like a part of her family as we walked through beautiful and secluded areas of Venice and learned about the culture and her unique experience as a Venice native. Highly recommend!

5.00This was an amazing food tour. We have been going on food tours for years at every city stop in Europe. This was one of the best- if not the best- we have ever attended. Joe brought us to delicious locations and taught us about Venetian history and culture at the same time. Our family of 4 loved it and would highly recommend. Thank you, Joe, for an incredible experience!

5.00Anna was just as amazing as the food! Her tour was one of the highlights of our 3 weeks in Italy. It could not have been better. We felt as if we’ve made a new friend.
Great tour with Anna.

5.00We had a fantastic food tour with Anna that we couldn’t be more happy about. Because it’s the off-season the group was small which meant it was more than a tour. It was also about meeting new people and making new friends. we had been in Vienna several days already and thought we had pretty much seen and tasted everything but with Anna’s tour we meandered through the local neighborhoods as well as the more popular areas. This is our second tour with eating Europe and they were both excellent. Definitely recommended.
Wonderful Insight and great food

5.00Anna was terrific, we had so much fun with her in Venice. We wish we would have done this on our first day instead of our last. She gave us such wonderful information and ideas for enjoying Venice.
