What you’ll do

Wine bars are popular in many parts of Italy but in Venice has a unique tradition, and snacking is almost a way of life. During this gourmet discovery tour you will wander from place to place stopping to sip wine and eat “cicheti” –Venetian snacks at the local “Bacari”. These wine-bars which offer finger food traditionally washed down with a glass of wine derive their name from Bacchus, the god of wines.
