Highlights
  • Campo Santa Margherita - Imagine Venice without the lively bar scene; this remarkable city already dazzles with its grand palazzos, sacred edifices, and stunning architectural wonders. Yet, we discerned a gap in the experience! Offering a vibrant alternative to Venice’s typically tranquil nightlife, this is one of the finest ways to connect with global wanderers.

Our adventure commences at the Ca’ Rezzonico Museum, right next to the vaporetto station, at 5:30 pm. Here, you’ll encounter our enthusiastic team member, easily spotted by a sign that reads “I’m doing it Venetian Style”. Winding through the maze of narrow passageways and squares, we’ll explore 4 traditional bars, known as ‘Bacari’ in local parlance.

  • Mercati di Rialto - Highlights:
    • A lively option for those seeking more excitement in Venice’s night scene;
    • An excellent opportunity to mingle with international travelers;
    • Don a costume and enjoy the mystery of who might be behind the mask!
    • Savor 4 glasses of wine paired with cicchetti at 4 authentic Venetian bacari.

  • Cicchetti and wine tasting at 3 local ‘bacari’ bars
  • Bilingual guide fluent in English and Italian

Additional Information

Our journey commences beside the Ca’ Rezzonico Museum, precisely at the vaporetto terminus, at 5:00 PM. A cheerful member of our team, flaunting a sign proclaiming ‘I’m doing it Venetian Style’ will be there to welcome you. As we stroll through the intricate and twisting passages and open spaces of the city, we’ll pay a visit to three local establishments referred to as Bacari in the Venetian dialect. At every ‘bacaro’ or bar, you’ll have the opportunity to savor an ‘Ombra’, which is a glass of native wine, and at the final stop, the famously enjoyed Venetian ‘SPRITZ’ will await your palate. Additionally, the distinct Venetian tapas, known as cicchetti, will be served at each bacaro. The only prerequisite we have is that participants are above 18 years old, so don’t forget to carry an ID. We strongly suggest securing your spot ahead of time!

  • On certain dates, most travelers staying outside of Venice who are planning to visit for the day will be required to pay a €5 access fee. For further details (including exemptions) and to learn what days this fee is applicable, please visit: https://cda.ve.it

Great pub crawl, great guide. - We were a party of four adults attending the Venetian Style Carnival Pub Crawl. Had a great time and our guide Sergio was the best. He had a great sense of humor and filled us in on local history and sights as we walked from pub to pub. Would definitely recommend.

Overpriced - A nice tour, but very overpriced for what you get. We could have arranged the same crawl for ourselves and paid $30 per person for the same experience.
