The experience

Follow the flavours

Venetian food makes more sense when you meet it where locals eat. Your guide takes the group between independently owned places, stopping for small plates, drinks and a meal. One stop might introduce you to creamed cod; another might bring fresh pasta or a pastry. The menu changes with the season, so the pleasure is in seeing what is being served that evening.

The walk also passes Venice landmarks, including the Rialto Bridge. Food stays at the centre of the outing, while the streets between stops give your guide room to share the city's history and everyday habits.

01Language

Choose the departure language when booking. Smaller groups in languages other than English can join an English-speaking group with a multilingual guide.

02Dietary needs

Ask the provider about your particular requirements before paying. Seasonal dishes change, so confirm a suitable menu rather than relying on a single example dish.

03Drinks

The tour includes regional wines or alcoholic drinks, with alternative drinks available. Confirm the alternatives if you prefer an alcohol-free evening.

Make it your visit

Is this the evening for you?

Come hungry and allow three hours. This is a sociable walk with a group and a guide, with food served at several venues rather than a single restaurant dinner. It suits travellers who want an introduction to cicchetti and local drinks while exploring Venice on foot.

It is an evening walk; sunset views depend on the season, weather and departure. Choose it for the food and city, not for a promised sunset photograph.

Before you set out

Plan before you set out

Meet beside the fountain near the church steps shown on your booking map. Wear comfortable shoes: this is a walk between food stops, and it goes ahead in rain or shine.

Check the language on your confirmation. On holidays, services and communications are in English; short-notice bookings in other languages need the provider’s approval. Raise any dietary requirements before booking.

Frequently asked questions

Tickets, timing and what to expect on the day.

If you want to taste several Venetian dishes and drinks while someone else chooses the stops, a guided walk can be a rewarding first evening. This one combines multiple tastings, a sit-down meal and stories from a local guide. If you prefer to linger over one restaurant table, book dinner separately.
