Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Piazza San Marco, 31024 Venice Italy

Your Food Hopping guide leads you confidently through the maze of alleyways and canals, away from beaten tourist tracks. After a sparkling drink in a romantic courtyard you visit hand-picked ‘bàcari’ - typical local bars, where neighbours meet up for a chat. At his quaint bar, padrone Andrea proudly presents his very own cicchetti speciality.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Cannaregio, Venice Italy

On the way to Aldo and Piero’s deli, you cross the Canale Grande on a gondola - just like a real Venetian. Winding paths, where you usually only encounter locals, lead to their family-run, very traditional salumeria - one of the last of its kind in all of Venice. From deep inside its massive counter, father and son retrieve delicious Veneto ‘formaggi’ for a cheese tasting.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Ponte di Rialto, Ruga degli Orefici (Rialto) San Polo, 30125 Venice Italy

At this stop you are right in the heart of local life: take a hearty bite into a multi-layered ‘tramezzino’, the Italian take on the sandwich. A little later, the impressive architecture of the 500-year-old palazzo reminds you of the snack you just enjoyed: All around the roofed inner courtyard, colonnades rise up over three storeys like sandwich layers and conceal an unexpectedly modern establishment behind historical walls.

Duration: 1 hour

Stop At: Calle Fiubera San Marco 801, 30124 Venice Italy

Together with your Food Hopping guide, at the other stops you'll indulge in a traditional main course, sample a ‘shadow’, served with Venice’s cicchetti, stimulate your senses with a local venetian wines, dunk biscuits in ‘not-so-holy’ wine, savour on a dessert called ‘pick me up’, drink espresso at the same place as Richard Wagner and Franz Liszt once did, and much, much more.
