Have you ever wondered where Venice’s best local artisan shops and eateries are? Want to explore the lesser-known parts of the city while discovering local food, wine, and craft gems? This experience is for you. Valeria Necchio, an acclaimed food writer and photographer who lives and works in Venice, leads this private guided tour you can reserve for yourself or with friends and family to show you Venice from a locals’ perspective.

 

Available as half-day or full-day excursions with Valeria, you can expect to be roaming the streets of Venice, sampling cicchetti at bacari, the Venice equivalent of tapas bars, and trying some quintessentially Venetian dishes at some of her favourite restaurants. On top of exploring her top choices of boutiques and Venetian spots, you’ll also visit one or two local ateliers and craftsmen in Venice who work hard to keep ancient and rare artisan traditions alive today.

 

By mingling with the locals, you can sample life as a Venetian, a truly unique experience, especially during the
quieter months of the year when the city often takes on a mystical atmosphere.
