About this tour

Venetians don’t usually do big meals at the bar. They do cicchetti: small bites eaten standing up in a bacaro, often with a small glass of wine known as an ombra. This food tour introduces you to that local habit.

Taste traditional dishes such as sarde in saor and baccalà mantecato, learn about the lagoon’s seafood and visit the Rialto area, where the city’s market has traded for centuries.
