Exceptional excursion - The excursion was not to eat but to visit the Jewish ghetto and also where the Muslims lived. We had the opportunity to visit a synagogue and also be able to pray

Incredible history and delicious food - Our tour guide was Julia or Juliet and she was amazing. Extremely knowledgeable and willing to answer questions about Venice that were not necessarily on our tour We had a very small group which made it a lot of fun The places that she took us to sample the foods were excellent if you’re looking for a very personalized experience off the beaten path of the Venice tours, this is an awesome one to go on. Highly recommended

This tour is a must! - Vanessa was such a wonderful guide! She was so knowledgeable about the history of the Jewish ghetto and brought to life each place she talked about. Also the food was delicious and I enjoyed learning about the different foods of Venice. I would highly recommend this tour and specifically Vanessa as a tour guide. She is engaging, warm and clearly passionate about the history and culture of Venice!

Met outside a restaurant and Denys brought us to many small establishments off the beaten path for delicious food, drink - The Jewish Ghetto and Cannaregio food and wine tour was the highlight of our four day trip to Venice. Denys is a fabulous guide and we met a group of lovely people. We had plenty to eat and drink and Denys showed us parts of Venice we would never have discovered on our own. We went back to those areas each evening after our tour and got away from the typical tourist areas. Definitely worth the price. Best of luck to Denys and team.

Jewish Ghetto food tour with a fantastic guide - This food tour was a highlight of our trip to Venice. Our tour guide, Vanessa, had a great depth of historical knowledge. And she was both kind and patient enough to field our many questions. Highly recommended!

Find the hidden gems of the city with the tour - I booked for this tour but the guide was sick so they asked me if I like to join another food tour in Rialto area. I joined the group of 11 and I definitely recommend it. Julia was very friendly and informative. She not only introduced all the great food spots but also some fun facts and stories about the city too! All the food spots were amazing and must try! Some of them are hidden gems so I wouldn’t have gone myself. Julia also recommended drinks at each spot so we all had drinks and food. Even though each portion was small, I got very full at the end of the tour.

Interesting tour. Food offerings needs work.. - We have done several food tours and this was good but not in the best. The guide, Vanessa was interesting, passionate, informative and patient. The food was good, but I felt it should have been better curated given the price of the tour. We learned alot about the Jewish Ghetto and Venice in general,

Waist of Vacation time! - As we had never before been to Venice, we got to the meeting point 2 hours before the tour was to begin. We waited over an hour after the starting time. That is three hours killed because the tour operator did not let us know that that day's tour had been cancelled. Yes we did get back the program cost, but three hours were wasted.
