Our guide, Sarah, was so nice and knowledgeable. And the places she took us to sample food and wines were of top quality. I definitely plan on going back to try more items on their menu.

Highly recommend this tour with Devour. Our guide Mosé was exceptionally knowledgeable and passionate about his subject.
Being able to go through the Doge’s Palace before it opened to the public was special. No crowds or distractions. The tour group was 20 in size (not 16) but being ahead of the crowds made up for this. It didn’t feel too large.

Food was phenomenal! Alessia was amazing and knowledgeable and answered all of our questions.
Portions were more than enough to fill us up and we got to learn and see some things we would have never seen on our own. Highly recommended

What is a cicchetti tour in Venice?
A cicchetti tour in Venice is your chance to eat like a local. You'll hop between bacari—Venetian wine bars—sampling traditional small bites (cicchetti), sipping wine or spritz, and uncovering a side of the city most visitors miss.
Where will we go on the tour?
You’ll explore the Dorsoduro and San Polo neighborhoods—home to some of the best cicchetti bars in Venice. These areas are local favorites, rich in history and low on tourist traps.
Will I be full after the tour?
We get this question a lot! With 7 tastings, including a pasta course, dessert, and four drinks, this tour is more than enough for a full meal for most people.
Can I find the best cicchetti in Venice on this tour?
Yes! We’ve curated stops based on flavor, authenticity, and local love—so you’ll taste some of the best cicchetti Venice has to offer.
How many people are on the tour?
Groups run up to 16 guests, with a local English-speaking guide throughout the gardens portion.
Is this a good experience for solo travelers?
Yes! Many of our guests come solo and leave with new friends. This class is warm, welcoming, and a great way to connect over food.
What makes this different from other cicchetti & wine tours of Venice?
We go deeper. This isn’t just a bar crawl—it’s a story-driven, flavor-packed experience led by local experts who love Venice (and know its best-kept secrets). Plus, we find the special, small local businesses that deserve a spotlight and reveal the real side of Venice.
