Venice: Evening Cicchetti & Wine Tour with Generous Tastings

Get to know the real Venice—away from the crowds—on this small-group evening food and wine tour through the city's hidden bacari (local wine bars). As the sun sets over the canals, you'll explore the historic neighborhoods of San Polo and Dorsoduro with a local food expert and experience one of Venice's most beloved traditions: cicchetti and ombra (wine and small plates).

This tour is designed for travelers looking for more than just light bites. With seven food tastings and four local drinks, you'll enjoy enough for a full meal, all while discovering authentic, family-run spots most tourists never find. Sample creamy baccalà mantecato, truffle-infused crostini, seasonal risottos, local meats, and more—each perfectly paired with regional wines like prosecco and Veneto reds.

Along the way, your guide will share stories of Venice's culinary history, its enduring bacaro culture, and how locals eat and drink today. You'll stroll through charming piazzas, cross tiny bridges, and experience Venice in the golden glow of twilight.

This isn't just a food tour—it's a cultural journey full of flavor, tradition, and local character. Come hungry and leave with a deeper connection to Venice—and a very satisfied palate.
