Our guide, Barbara, was so personable and engaging. She really wanted to share her Venice with us. We never would have found the areas or bars/restaurants on our own. Wonderful experience.

This was a great cichetti tour with guide Emanuela M. Her knowledge of Venice, history etc was excellent and she explained things in a fun way. Our group was extremely picky with food choices and Emanuela M. made sure we were all happy and something for each of us. There was a lot of food and drinks and no one went hungry. My fav was learning about the different Spritzs. The staff at the bars were also friendly and helpful and fun! I highly recommend this tour with Emnuela M. I would take it again ?
