Vanessa was the best! She is very knowledgeable about Venetian food and culture. She made sure to ask about any food allergies and specific likes and dislikes before we started! Each location selected offered great options. Great guide, great food, great price! I would highly recommend it!

It’s a great afternoon out exploring Venice. The food is good but just exploring and hearing about the history of Venice was sooo good! Highly recommended.

We often do food tours when visiting a city and in Venice it was special. A great way to see the wonderful city and our guide Tonal was very informative and took us to some hidden gems. Would highly recommend as you go to places you wouldn't normally find and the food tasting was excellent.

It was really fun walking around and tasting different food and drinks. However, some of the shops ran out of stuff I wanted to taste.

We booked this last minute, and it was one of the best choices of the trip. We had amazing street food that we wouldn’t have otherwise tried, along with some history of Venice. It’s so worth the price of the ticket. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to the food that isn’t pizza and pasta.
