Experience food tours in
Venice with Withlocals

"Maria was a fantastic tour guide. We booked a 3 hour tour but our six year old was more tired than expected so Maria changed our route to match the family vibe. She also kept touch during our time in Venice giving us some great restaurants to try in our price range. She answered our questions on the tour including some strange ones, like “ what’s up with all these velvet slippers?”"

"Genny was an absolutely wonderful host to us in Venice. She was extremely knowledgeable and charming, giving us a detailed history of the city and it’s rich heritage. She was accommodating to my wife’s pregnancy as well for the food offerings and made us feel very welcome every step of the way. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone wanting a great food tour in the city. "

"We had a wonderful 3 hours with Maria. She was so lovely and thoughtful. She provided options for us so we could direct the tour. As well as introducing us to amazing food she showed us unique sights and shared the history of Venice. Following the tour Maria sent us a number of food and must see recommendations to help us make the most of our stay. We highly recommend this experience with Maria."

"I gifted my parents a food tour in Venice with Claudia and they absolutely loved it. Here is the review from my mother. "Claudia was fantastic. Our daughter gifted us a Tasting Tour of Venice from "With Locals" for our recent vacation. Claudia was an absolute delight. We met at a central location where she inquired about any food allergies or likes and dislikes. We then spent almost 3 hours walking around the city, visiting small shops and cafes, trying different Ciccheti (small bites) as well as wine/beer tastes. She took us through numerous small streets and alleys, over many bridges, while explaining the history of the city, the local food culture, and various recent events. This was by far the best tour we had during our 3 weeks of travel.""

"Our group has done multiple food tours all over Europe, and our tour with Alexandra was hands down the best ever. Alexandra was personable, knowledgable, friendly, and went the extra kilometer with us. She provided great knowledge of Venice, the history, and the culture and necessary etiquette to treat Venetians properly. She made us regret not having more time in Venice. Our experience with Alexandra was so positive, we will recommend her/tour to all our friends coming to Venice."

"My husband Tom and I took the "10 Tastings of Venice" tour with Alexandra last week. We loved it! Alexandra guided us around Venice for three hours providing her insight into modern life in the city as well as some historical highlights. We tasted cicchetti and drank local wine in four locations. Alexandra is an enthusiastic, charming guide who answered all our questions and treated us really well. She lives in the city and knows a lot of the merchants - so we really felt like we were walking around the city with a local friend. My advice for people considering this tour is to arrive hungry and pace yourself with the bites, so you can taste them all. I highly recommend Alexandra as a guide for any Venice tour. But, this tour was particularly fun. "

"We took the 10 tastings of Venice food walking tour with Claudia on our recent visit. It was my husband and I and our 3 year old daughter. With a 3 year old in tow you can imagine that any tour is always a gamble. Claudia is the child whisperer. From the moment we met she was so warm to our daughter (my husband and I too of course). She walked the perfect line of including her, while giving her the space to warm up to her (as children need sometimes). Claudia had such an ease with our child it is clear she spends lots of time with them (as she commented with her nephew). Within 20 minutes of the tour starting our daughter was choosing to hold Claudia's hand rather than ours as we spent 3 hours walking around Venice learning about the city, history, and enjoying several types of local cuisine (and beverages). Whether you are traveling as a couple or just adults, but especially if you have children, Claudia is the premier guide you could choose for your walking tour of Venice. Having grown up in Venice her knowledge of the city is second to none, and her english is spectacular as well if that is relevant for your group. Thank you Claudia! You were the highlight of our visit to Venice. "

"We booked Adair for a Food and drink Tasting tour in Venice. She was fantastic! We could not have made a better choice. She was warm and friendly, and extremely knowledgeable about the food and the culture of the city. We had been to Venice before and wanted to see it from a different perspective. We also got to know a little about her personally which was delightful. We even stopped by her husband’s bar the next evening when we found ourselves wandering through the streets of Venice, looking for a place to eat. Her husband happily referred us to a wonderful local eatery. Obviously, the whole family is lovely. If we come back to Venice, Adair will be our first booking."

"Alexandra was an awesome tour guide! She took us to all local places (and showed us how to recognize them) which we loved - in fact we went back to one of them the next day for lunch! We mentioned that we didn't get to try any Chianti when in Florence and so she had the last place bring some out for us to try! I feel like we got much more than we paid. She helped us understand how to navigate in Venice. I highly recommend this tour with Alexandra. There were 4 of us and we all loved it! I have done food tours in almost every place I've travelled to and I have to say this was one of the best and Alexandra a fantastic guide! "

"We had the most wonderful time with Genny! As a proud Venetian she took us to venerated and delicious spots to taste local specialties and explained the history and culture surrounding them. We all commented on how happy we were that we took the tour and chose Genny as our guide. It honestly felt like we were being walked through the streets with an old friend we hadn’t seen in a while. I can’t recommend Genny highly enough!!! Thank you for a wonderful time ❤️🇮🇹."
