The tour starts outside the Ex Cinema Teatro Italia in the Cannaregio district, where the guide meets the group. This building opened in 1916 as a theater and cinema and now functions as a supermarket, retaining its original Art Nouveau and Neo-Gothic frescoes and decorations. The total duration is three and a half hours, mostly spent walking through Venice’s Cannaregio district. The first hour covers the Venice Jewish Ghetto, established in 1516 as the world’s first ghetto. Participants walk through quiet streets and courtyards, passing historic synagogues, Jewish museums, traditional bakeries, and artisan shops. After the ghetto visit, the tour continues for about two hours through Cannaregio, known for its canals and bacari wine bars. Along the way, the group tastes more than six local food specialties. These include crunchy Venetian cookies, various cicchetti such as creamy baccalà mantecato, a Venetian meatball served with wine, creamy polenta served in a traditional bacaro, a hearty Venetian pasta dish, and classic tiramisù for dessert. A Spritz cocktail is included during the tasting stops. The guide also serves an exclusive Secret Dish during the walk. The route follows quieter streets and local shops, showing everyday life in Venice beyond the main tourist areas. The menu and itinerary may change depending on location availability and weather conditions. The tour involves walking, so comfortable shoes are recommended. Pets are not allowed. Guests should inform the operator in advance of any dietary restrictions for appropriate arrangements.
