An amazing Tour and Guide - We absolutely loved this tour!! Daria was our guide, and she is one of the most lovely people I have ever met! She took us to some amazing places, explained the culture, food and drinks so well, and made sure that our group were all "besties" by the end of the tour. I cannot recommend taking this tour enough, GO!!

She was knowledgeable, approachable and a wealth of knowledge about the city and the food we got to experience. All the places we visited were welcoming and had delicious cicchetti and gelato!! My wife and I were extremely pleased with our experience and recommend this tour wholeheartedly!

Great experience - Our guide was fantastic! We learned lots about Venice and the food and wine here. The food and wine were really good and we tried things we never would have on our own. Manu made the evening so fun with her stories, my daughter and I had a wonderful time.

Amazing tour with an amazing guide - I’ve taken many food tours before and this one was, hands down, the best I’ve ever been on. Our guide, Barbara, was amazing. She was friendly and smart and funny and you could tell she loves what she does. Every place we went to we had delicious food and Barbara told interesting stories about the history of the food and/or location. We all learned so much about Venetian history and how it related to the food we were eating. I would do this tour again in a heartbeat and encourage anyone who had the opportunity to do it as well.

Outstanding food tour - Love doing food tours when traveling abroad and this one did not disappoint. Our guide Elizabetta was born in Venice and shared great information about the history, food and drinks. It was great to get out of the busy San Marco area and explore another Venice district. Would highly recommend this tour.

It’s a maybe if you have extra time. - It was ok. Guide was. Or very talkative. We happen to be with two other couples who were from Florida. We made our own conversation. On previous tours we’ve had guides who discuss the food why they chose it and its origins.
