Full description This Venice evening food and wine experience offers travelers an authentic journey into the city's vibrant drinking culture, following the same path locals take when celebrating special occasions or simply unwinding with friends. This immersive tour dives deep into the Venetian bacaro scene, with visits to four carefully selected wine bars where guests will savor the finest local wines and indulge in cicchetti, the traditional Venetian tapas.

The experience begins with a premium Prosecco, produced using the rare Champenoise method—an exclusive find even in Veneto, the heartland of Prosecco. From there, the tour ventures into the hidden alleys of San Polo, where travelers will relax in a cozy, tucked-away bacaro. Here, they’ll enjoy expertly paired local tapas such as shrimp, sardines, or vegetable croquettes, alongside a more structured regional wine. This is also the perfect moment to uncover the secrets behind Venice’s iconic spritz, learning the true recipe and its cultural significance.

For natural wine enthusiasts, the third stop is a must. Guests will explore the world of Venetian natural wines, sampling two exquisite varieties paired with artisanal cheeses and cured meats, all while soaking in the intimate atmosphere of a canal-side bacaro.

To conclude this unforgettable evening, the tour ends in a traditional wine bar frequented by locals, where a rich dessert wine is served alongside authentic Venetian cookies. The final indulgence? A creamy, handcrafted tiramisu, the most iconic dessert of the region.

Beyond the culinary delights, expert guides bring the city to life with fascinating insights into Venetian history, arts, and traditions, revealing hidden stories that go far beyond standard guidebooks. The tour concludes in the charming Campo Santo Stefano, leaving travelers with a deep appreciation of Venice’s food culture and a taste of la dolce vita.
