Worth the money - Excellent walk around Venice’s other areas visiting small bars and enjoying ciccetti food. Hosted by Ursula who was very entertaining and informative.
Plenty of food and drink plus history.

Book it and come hungry! - Great stops, tasty and filling cichetti with delicious wine. Despite the crowds from the holiday weekend, Alice kept us well fed, informed and entertained. I learned I like a Select spritz over an Aperol!

Great Experience - Giorgia was our guide tonight. She was very knowledgeable about the foods and drinks that we had. She took us to some lesser known places, off the main areas which was refreshing. She was able to answer all of our questions and had recommendations for other places in Venice. We really enjoyed our tour with her and would highly recommend

Would do it again in a heartbeat - We were hesitant to book this one due to the price, but are super glad we did.
The tour was very relaxed, informative and loads of fun. The food and wine were excellent and very tasty.
If you want a taste of what the locals eat and drink then this tour is for you

Great time on the Cicchetti and Wine Tour - During my visit to Venice, I tried the Cicchetti and Wine Tour and I wasn't disappointed. Our tour guide Ursula gave us a great tour of the Island, told us lots of history and brought us to some less touristy areas to experience the Local Cicchetti. I went for the late morning tour, and as there was only 4 other people on the tour at this time, it felt very personal and relaxed. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone.

Fantastic Guide, but tour wasn’t what I thought it would be - The guide on this tour was fantastic! Very knowledgeable and tried to make the best of a bad situation. It absolutely poured and was very cold and windy. Now, you can’t do anything about the weather, however, I really wished they compensated for it a little more. I thought this tour was going to a few places to eat appetizers and try some delicious Venetian wines. I didn’t anticipate standing the entire time. We weren’t able to do the Gondola ride so did a city walking tour instead, in the wind and rain. It would have been lovely to sit in a restaurant, eating and drinking and hearing the history she had to tell. Again, the guide was lovely and tried to shelter us as much as she could, but this tour could’ve been really terrific in spite of the rain if they just adapted a different strategy for poor weather.
