    Best food tour in Venice

    had a amazing tour with the most friendly, helpful and bubbly beautiful Martina ! She is very knowledgeable and kind and explained all the food we tasted with the origin and meaning. Missed the meeting point , which was totally on me and Martina was super understanding and sweet and saved us the cicchetti without rushing us. Martina is a gem and rays of sunshine!

    Passionate Guide, Unforgettable Tour

    Marianna was an outstanding guide—her passion and love for the city are truly contagious. This tour takes you beyond the typical tourist spots and into the real heart of the city, where the food is exceptional. Highly recommended, even for families with younger children.

    Mmm yum!

    Very easygoing experience and the guide who was a local Vetetian was brilliant. Seen places and learned things that we never would have been able to ourselves. Even got a cheaper than normal gondola ride afterwards too. Excellent.

    Sunset Walking Tour - Food & Wine Tasting

    Martina was an AMAZING tour guide for our sunset walking tour that included food and wine tasting in Venice. She provided helpful information about local traditions, wine selections, and dining establishments that my husband and I found valuable including tips on choosing restaurants, understanding wines, trying desserts, and what to look for in true gelato. We visited several different locations, and each stop was wonderful. You could see how much Martina cares about sharing her heritage throughout the tour. The tour was well-planned and organized. I suggest booking a tour like this early in your visit to any new city.

    Response from the operator: Hi Kristin, thank you very much for your fantastic review! Martina sent her warmest grazie—she was touched by your kind words about her passion for sharing her Venetian heritage. We're thrilled that you and your husband found her tips on selecting authentic restaurants, pairing regional wines, and spotting true artisan gelato so valuable. Booking early in your trip really is the best way to unlock the rest of Venice! It was such a great pleasure having you with us discovering real Venice. 🍷🍨✨ — Savor Italy Tours team

    Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.

    How much does Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine cost?

    +

    Prices start at $65 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Venice usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine take?

    +

    Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Venice is not rushed.

    Is Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 80 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 81 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine?

    +

    Around 28 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Venice can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Venice and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Venice 10 bites : Cicchetti Trial with Wine start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Venice within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Venice?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Venice experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Venice Pasta & Tiramisu Cooking Class with wine by Cooking Italy, Eating Venice Small Group Food & Drinks Tour, Tour of The Real Hidden Venice. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Venice?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Venice?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
