    Itinerary

    • Campo San Giacometto is a small yet charming square located in the heart of Venice, near the Rialto Bridge. Often overlooked by tourists, it offers a more tranquil atmosphere compared to the busy thoroughfares of the city. The square is home to the Church of San Giacometto, one of Venice’s oldest churches, dating back to the 11th century. The church's simple yet beautiful Romanesque design adds to the quaint appeal of the square.

    Tour Details

    Full Description

    Join us on a delightful 4-hour culinary journey through Venice’s charming osterias, trattorias, pastry shops, and wine bars, where you'll experience the authentic flavors of this captivating city.

    We’ll begin in the historic Campo San Giacometto, a bustling square that has been a center of commerce for centuries. Our first stop will introduce you to cicchetti, the Venetian version of tapas—bite-sized appetizers made with locally sourced meats, cheeses, and fresh produce. These savory treats will ignite your taste buds as we continue our exploration.

    Food is at the heart of Italian life, and Venice offers a rich tapestry of dining experiences. Picture plates of vibrant olives, delicate polenta topped with marinated seafood, and other traditional delicacies. Your guide will share fascinating stories of the city’s culinary heritage as we leisurely stroll through its picturesque streets.

    We’ll visit local markets brimming with fresh fish, vegetables, and regional produce before crossing the iconic Rialto Bridge to a charming 18th-century osteria famous for its exceptional cicchetti. Here, we’ll enjoy a bottle of crisp Prosecco while learning about Venice’s regional wines.

    Our next stop will be Campo San Bartolomeo, home to the historic Marco Polo House and Casanova’s former haunts, with nearby exquisite churches and art masterpieces. Along the way, we’ll dive into more Venetian food traditions and perhaps sample a refreshing Bellini, Venice's signature cocktail.

    Finally, we’ll head to Campo Santi Giovanni e Paolo, where a decadent dessert of Tiramisu awaits. Did you know that the tradition of drinking coffee in Italy began right here in Venice?

    This immersive food tour of central Venice is easily accessible from local hotels. As you indulge in this hearty meal, your English-speaking guide will also suggest other must-visit spots during your stay in Italy.

    Prepare to feast, savor, and be enchanted by the rich history, art, food, and wine of Venice!
