Vanessa, our guide, was very friendly, graceful and knowledgeable guide, one of the best we have had, and we have taken food tours around the world. Not only did the well-planned tour have great tastings and libations, Vanessa also shared her insight on history and culture of this district, and the Venice area. Highly reccommend to others.
One of the best food tours we've done. Very informative and very very filling. Your certainly won't go away hungry. Vanessa, our guide, really knows here history and we we went away with our brains filled as much as our tummies!
Denys was a wonderful guide who took us through the Jewish ghetto and Cannaregio Quarters with great insight. He shared fascinating information about the areas rich history. Each tasting came with a story and everything we tried was unique and absolutely delicious. Bring your appetite. This tour is flavorful and not to be missed.
Do not schedule this tour on the Sabbath. One stop for the apertifs would have been sufficient. Tour guide was very good: knowledgeable about "things Venice"
Venessa was a fabulous guide! Her knowledge of the area, Venitian history & ethnic gods was commendable. Come hungry, as you’ll have the opportunity to try many different types of food and wine.
A thorough history of the Ghetto, and the food was great. My wife needed to miss the tour due to a health issue; Vanessa went above and beyond in helping, by including unscheduled pharmacy stops and by providing for samples I could bring back to my wife. Her care and support were/are much appreciated.
Over all I had an excellent experience. The food we had was awesome, the choses were things I dont think I’d have tried other wise. This tour also had an historical element. Doing a deeper dive into the history of the Jewish ghettos truly enriched my understanding of Venice. Would totally recommend!!!
Such a great tour. Vanessa was the best, she is so knowledgable about the history of the ghetto. She speaks without a script, just sharing what she has learned through her studies. There is also plenty of great food and wine so come hungry. Vanessa also helped us with other information about Venice, we really appreciated the opportunity to talk with her.
The whole tour was excellent. Tour guide knew a lot of history and was pleasant. The variety of foods was interesting and fun
Vanessa was an amazing guide and we were so lucky to have her all to ourselves. This is a fascinating tour of the Jewish Ghetto and Cannaregio area with wonderful food! Vanessa is very well informed and answered all of our questions. It is an emotional place to visit and we learned a great deal about the area. The last stop for gelato quickly became our favorite gelato place in Venice!
