Traveler reviews
A delicious and fun way to spend a morning in Venice.
Wandering the Rialto Market with a knowledgeable guide, sampling fantastic local food and wine along the way, was the perfect introduction to authentic Venetian cuisine. Everything was fresh, the pours were generous, and we left full and happy with great recommendations for the rest of our stay. Five of us went and everyone loved it.
Denys, our guide, made...
Denys, our guide, made sure everyone was happy with the selection of food provided at each stop. He was the most accommodating guide I have yet to experience. The food stops were very popular. We tried to go back to one for a late lunch and the line was long. Thank you Denys, for your kind, intelligent manner.
Tone was a great tour...
Tone was a great tour guide. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the history of Venice. The tour was a nice mix of old and new Venetian spots.
