Guide tips
Meet your guide outside Despar Teatro Italia
Your tour begins outside the stunning Despar Teatro Italia, a former theater turned one of Italy’s most beautiful markets. But you’re not here for groceries—your guide’s ready to whisk you away for a night of irresistible food and wine.
Cannaregio Neighborhood
Throughout the evening, you’ll get to know the real Venice, thanks to Cannaregio’s relaxed and genuine feel. Here, locals fill the bars, trattorias stay family-run, and the crowds feel a world away.
Cicchetti Tastings at Bacari
Now it’s time to dig in. Follow your guide into two traditional bacari, cozy Venetian wine bars where locals gather for cicchetti—small, savory bites paired with wine. You’ll learn how to order like a local and discover which flavor combinations Venetians swear by.
Venetian Spritz Demo
This classic, bright orange drink is a rite of passage in Italy, but while most tourists sip without a clue, you’ll learn to craft one yourself. With a local bartender, you’ll master the art of making an Aperol, Campari, and Select spritz like a true Venetian.
Traditional Sit-down Dinner
With your appetite kick-started thanks to the aperitivi, the sit-down dinner couldn’t come at a better time. You’ll enjoy classic Venetian dishes paired with an ombra (a small glass of local wine) while chatting with your guide and group in a cozy, unhurried setting.

Our tour guide was very personable and knowledgeable. We enjoyed her very much. We were given opportunities to try food that we would not otherwise try, some great, some did not agree with my taste buds. This was a really great tour and I would highly recommend it!!

Our guide Giovanni was awesome! He was super fun and knowledgeable. He is 5 stars!! However, the food places were only average, and the drink pours were tiny and the quality of the wines poured was bad. That part of the tour gets 2-3 stars.
