Full Description
Indulge in Venice’s culinary excellence on a private gourmet dining tour around the Rialto area. Unlike a casual street food walk, this experience invites you to sit down in authentic restaurants and wine bars, savoring a progressive tasting menu paired with fine Venetian wines.
Guided by a local expert, you’ll enjoy multiple courses across carefully selected venues—starting with Venetian appetizers and cichetti, followed by pasta or seafood dishes, and ending with artisanal desserts. Each tasting is paired with regional wines such as Prosecco, Soave, or Valpolicella, chosen to enhance the flavors of your meal.
As you dine, your guide will share stories of Venetian food traditions, wine culture, and the history of the Rialto area, once the beating heart of the city’s trade and gastronomy.
The tour can be extended to a half or full-day gourmet experience, adding a Rialto Market visit in the morning or a cooking class for a complete immersion into Venetian cuisine.
Hotel, train station or cruise terminal pick-up can be arranged.
