What you'll see and do
Ex Cinema Teatro Italia
You will meet your guide in front of the Ex Cinema Teatro Italia in Cannaregio opened in 1916 as a grand theater and cinema, with striking Art Nouveau and Neo-Gothic details. Today, it’s been transformed into a supermarket while preserving frescoed ceilings and ornate décor—making it one of Venice’s most surprising hidden gems.
30 minutes here
Venice Jewish Ghetto is a historic and culturally rich area in Cannaregio, established in 1516 as the world’s first ghetto. Today, it remains a vibrant neighborhood with centuries-old synagogues, Jewish museums, traditional bakeries, and artisan shops. Walking through its quiet courtyards and narrow streets offers a unique glimpse into Venetian history, heritage, and daily life.
60 minutes here
Cannaregio
Cannaregio is one of Venice’s most authentic and atmospheric districts, where local life blends with centuries of history. Famous for its charming canals, lively bacari (wine bars), and the historic Jewish Ghetto—the first of its kind in the world—Cannaregio offers a more relaxed vibe away from the busiest tourist routes. Stroll along quiet streets, discover artisan shops, and soak in the real Venetian atmosphere.

Great Tour
Excellent food tour. Marina is a great guide and very knowledgeable about the food and Venice in general

A fun evening.
While we did not like everything we tasted, it was a fun way to taste some of the local foods while wandering in different areas.
Response from the operator: Thank you for sharing your experience. We’re glad to hear that you enjoyed the evening and found it a fun way to explore Venice while trying some of the local foods. With a food tour, not every tasting will appeal to every guest’s personal taste, and that is part of the experience of discovering the local cuisine. We aim to offer a variety of traditional flavors while taking guests through different areas of the city, so it’s great to know that you enjoyed that part of the experience. Thank you again for joining us and for taking the time to share your feedback. We hope you left with some new tastes, memorable moments, and a different perspective on Venice!

Great first night into to Venice
We enjoyed our Venice food tour with Carlotta. The meeting spot was easy to find with short walks between stops. We were pleasantly surprised with the opportunity to take the traghetto. The wine, spritz and cicchetti were enjoyable. We appreciated all that Carlotta has to share about Venice. She answered all of our questions and has suggestions to help with our stay. We appreciated that Carlotta followed up with details of our tour as well as pictures she had taken
Response from the operator: It was great having you with us! We’re happy Secret Food Tours gave you the chance to try something new and enjoy the local food scene. There’s always more waiting for your next visit.

You will love this tour!
A wonderful tour with delicious local food! Our guide Carlotta was the best- charming, warm, informative, knowledgeable, helpful, and who better to show us the delights of Venetian cuisine than a local young woman who has lived here all of her life? She answered all of our questions and was constantly curious about which food/drink we liked or didn’t like (although there was nothing I didn’t like.) Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: We loved having you with us and sharing a little of the city together. Secret Food Tours is always a chance to discover something new and make time for good company. We hope you’ll join us again whenever you’re back in town!

Can’t Miss Experience With Marina!
Just like all of Venice, this tour was amazing! Marina is the star of the show while the food/drinks sampled were all out of this world! Choices were spectacular with a full venetian explosion of tastes. Very light walking so that was not an issue. Marina answered all questions and even went further in depth with explanations that made us appreciate and understand everything that much better. If you can request a guide, make sure it is Marina! Thank you Marina for an unforgettable experience…and a full belly :-)
Response from the operator: Thanks for the lovely note about Secret Food Tours. We’re grateful you took the time to share your visit with us. Hope we get to host you again someday!

Venice Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Venice.
How much does Venice Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More cost?
+
Prices start at $124 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 Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 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 Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 88 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 339 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Venice, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Venice Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More?
+
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 Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Venice Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More?
+
Around 119 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 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Venice Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More 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.
What is included in Venice Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More?

Where is the meeting point for Venice Food Tour with 6+ Tastings with Cicchetti, Spritz & More?
+
