Experience the true essence of Venice with a perfect blend of iconic flavors and timeless beauty. Begin your journey with a traditional spritz con Aperol—a refreshing mix of Prosecco, Aperol, and sparkling water—paired with a tasting of cicchetti, Venice’s beloved small plates. In a classic bacaro (Venetian wine bar), sample a variety of local delicacies like creamy cod on crostini, fried mozzarella, sarde in saor (sweet-and-sour sardines), polenta with shrimp, and more. Sip on a local ombra, a small glass of house wine, just like the Venetians do. Then, step into a gondola and glide through the city’s historic canals, marveling at the grandeur of centuries-old palazzi. This enchanting gondola ride offers the perfect perspective to take in Venice’s elegance and atmosphere. Whether it’s your first visit or your tenth, this delicious and scenic experience captures the true heart of Venice—on the plate and on the water.
