Venice Cicchetti Food Tour - 10 Tastings & 30-Minute Shared Gondola Ride (Small Group)

Taste 10 Venetian cicchetti
with a local guide

Starting from Campo San Giacomo di Rialto, you see the Rialto Bridge and the Rialto Market. Visiting carefully selected places popular with locals, you taste 10 traditional cicchetti that Venetians have enjoyed for generations.

Hear the stories and traditions behind the food

Your guide explains the ingredients, traditions, stories and legends behind each tasting, and how cicchetti became part of everyday Venetian life. From seafood and local specialties to classic Venetian pairings, you experience how locals really eat and drink. There is enough food to replace lunch or dinner, so come hungry.

See the canals on a 30-minute gondola ride

After the tastings, you board a traditional gondola and glide along the canals for 30 minutes. This is a proper gondola ride, not a short traghetto or gondolino crossing of the Grand Canal, so you can sit back and admire historic buildings, bridges and quiet waterways from the water. The gondola is shared with other participants.

※ The gondola ride may not run depending on weather conditions such as rain or strong wind.
