This tour was the best! Frederico and Giorgia were so friendly, open and made a point to really connect with us. Very professional and personal and the food/wine were great!

An interesting experience made better by the interesting people on the tours. The wines were good, but none were amazing. I did enjoy the white natural wine more than I thought I would. The Cecchetti were all good.

Fedrico was amazing, very knowledgeable and we enjoyed the experience immensely. The explanation and history behind each experience was superb. Excellent

Joann O

The guide was only fair — her English was not particularly good and her knowledge of wine was lacking. The food that we sampled was not particularly good. I’ve been on many food tours and, sadly, this one was disappointing and not worth the money.

We had a lovely evening , a very enjoyable and unforgettable experience. Our guide was keen to impart his extensive knowledge and had a lovely laid back approach. We grilled him relentlessly with our questions and he was very patient with us and informative with his answers. We experienced places we would have overlooked which was exactly what we wanted . We also tried different foods and drinks and surprised ourselves with what we liked .

Awesome evening in Venice!! Frederico was punctual, informative, and very inclusive and entertaining. Great historian and very knowledgeable about the cuisine and wine. Great selection of food and wine. Restaurants were unique and away from the mass of tourist. An outstanding evening!!

This tour was outstanding! We had so much fun tasting different foods and wines in the different corners of Venice. Federico was so friendly and knowledgeable! Highly recommend!

We enjoyed the walk through a part of Venice we would have not seen. The tour guide Frederico was engaging and informative. The wines were tasty in each wine bar that we visited. The Tapas were local flavors, mostly fish. I am a picky eater and did not taste some of the dish's, but they were enjoyed by the group and my husband. Our group was fun, and from all different parts of the United States.

Anna, our guide, was sensational! She was fun, funny and very knowledgeable about the local wine, food, history, and culture. The food and wine tasting was just my husband, myself, and one other couple, which made it nice and intimate. We tasted 5 wines and had lots of food. Highly recommend!
