Great foodie tour. Jo, the tour manager was excellent, very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. Told us a lot about Venice and the culture. Very interesting. Small group helps, enabling easy conversation. We had 5 stops, all good. They support family type businesses in the "real Venice " in the Canneregio district. It was a nice range of food and drinks, finishing with a lovely gelatto. Highly recommended, give it a go.

Anna, our guide to Venetian food and drink, was absolutely wonderful. A native of Venice she was also able to share history, culture, and current life in Venice. The food, especially the seafood ravioli, was delicious and plentiful. The gelato was a perfect ending to our evening.We highly recommend this tour, and try to get Anna.

Our tour guide, Daniela, made this tour even more special with her excellent descriptions of the food and clear passion for the culture and food of this magical city. I highly recommend this experience!!

Anna saved the day on our first day in Venice! We got lost trying to meet up at the location and she waited for us and was so gracious with us in being patient and understanding. She felt like an old friend showing us around and pointing out interesting things I felt we would have missed otherwise. It felt like two tours in one, as we got to sample delicious local foods as well as get a really great tour of the area. 100% recommend!!
