Overview

Have a unique Aperitivo time, the best part of every Venetian’s day. Check the "Bacaroes", the venetian wine bars while sipping some local drinks and enjoying some mouthwatering ‘cicchetti’ bites in several taverns and pubs that only locals know!

Raise a glass during Venice’s treasured cocktail hour on this food and wine tour that takes you away from the crowds and tourist traps to wine bars where locals go. Sample a classic Aperol spritz or the genuine other venetian variations with the Venetian small bites known as ‘cicchetti’ while chatting with a foodie guide.
Drink after drink and hopping from one bar to the other, you will discover some hidden gems of the city in the off the beaten path spots.

  • Snacks 3 bites (delicious "cicchetti" - vegetarian alternatives available
  • Alcoholic beverages 3 drinks (Spritz or local wine) - non-alcoholic alternatives available
  • Pick up from hotel or other location in Venice on request

We will wander to the splendid baroque churches, tiny chapels hiding Tintoretto masterpieces and odd-looking marble statues. A break for sipping some local good wine and tasting delicious cicchetti bites will be followed by a fascinating tour of historical Ghetto synagogues.
