Overview

This small-group walking tour over 3 to 3.5 hours takes you through Venices's Cannaregio and Jewish Ghetto neighborhoods. You'll begin at a neighborhood bakery that has served locals for generations, then continue through a family-run bacari and a working winery, tasting savory bites, regional wines, and a classic Venetian spritz along the way.
