bacaro hopping with a friend - Super cute and quaint tour. Alici was an amazing tour guide, and it was obvious that she loves Venice and her neighborhood that she gets to passionately share about. It felt like we were walking the streets of Venice with a new friend. She picked out the best and most delicious cicchetti. She gave us a very helpful list for other spots to visit that we're off the normal tourist areas where locals frequent. Would definitely recommend as a great introduction to venice.

Great Intro Tour to Cannaregio - Lovely small group tour. Guide Alice/Alicia was great - friendly, knowledgeable, and informative. Tour covered brief history of the Jewish ghettos in Venice and then short walks to three different establishments - two for cicchetti and one for gelato. Food and drink value per person was in the €20-€30 range, so you’re paying for the local insight, history, translation, and guidance. Great foundational tour if you’re staying in Cannaregio, as the guide offered the group a list of recommended spots for cicchetti in the sestieri.

Tour - Tour started with a dessert item since the bakery was closing soon. The rest of the tour appeared to be items that were favorites and prearranged by the guide herself. It would have been nice to chose from a few items off a selected menu. Picture of tour on website does not reflect what is actually presented.
