On the programme

Venice food tours are the ultimate experience to discover this unique city.

The Bacaro tour is a tour in the small downtown bars that will unveil one of the most vivid and funny culinary traditions in Veneto.

With this tour you can dive into the genuine and friendly lagoon mood and join the lively aperitivo time of the locals, tasting wines and eating the local, gourmet snacks (‘cicchetti’) in the most beautiful area of the city.

POSSIBLE TASTINGS: 

  • Spritz - the cornerstone of Venetian aperitivo. The name originated from spritzen, an Austrian word referring to the practice of watering down wine during the war with sparkling beverages. In the 20’, the cocktail we know today was invented and the sweet-tasting aperol was added to sparkling water and wine.
  • Prosecco - local, high-quality prosecco is the best way to enjoy Italian moments. Drink it in good company is even better!
  • Crostini - toasted artisan bread topped or stuffed with the best directly from the lagoon. Some options are the sarde in saor (sardines with caramelized onions, vinegar pine nuts and risings), cured meats, cheeses with truffle sauces, veggie balls and mixed fried snacks.
  • Warm dishes - you will taste some Venetian specialties. For example: risotto; deep-fried mozzarella sandwich (“mozzarella in carrozza“); codfish with cornmeal (“baccalà mantecato”)
  • Artisan ice cream (“Gelato”): in a gourmet ice cream shop, you’ll taste one of the best artisanal gelato in town, featuring both traditional and innovative tastes.
