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.

You'll pass Ponte Chiodo, Venice's only bridge without railings, and walk through the Jewish Ghetto, one of the oldest in Europe, hearing the history behind both before finishing with a seasonal dessert.

Your guide keeps the group small, up to 10 guests, weaving local history into every stop. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available on request.

What to expect

  1. Strada Nova
    15m
    You'll step into a bakery that has fed this neighborhood since 1905, biting into a warm slice of pizza piled with mortadella, pesto, and buffalo mozzarella, your first taste of Cannaregio life.
  2. 45m
    Settle into a cozy bacaro for a glass of chilled DOCG prosecco alongside a savory meatball and polenta topped with shrimp in saor, Venice's classic sweet-and-sour marinade of onions and vinegar.
  3. Cannaregio
    Pass by
    You'll stroll past Ponte Chiodo, Venice's only bridge without railings, and the quiet Misericordia canal, taking in the residential, unhurried side of Cannaregio, far from the crowded main routes.
  4. 45m
    Step inside a working winery for a creamy artichoke risotto paired with a local wine or beer, a dish that balances centuries of Venetian tradition with a distinctly modern touch.
  5. Campo Di Ghetto Nuovo
    Pass by
    You'll pass through Europe's oldest Jewish Ghetto, learning how this quiet campo shaped centuries of Venetian history and remains a living, breathing part of the neighborhood today.
  6. 45m
    This is where the spritz hour truly begins, with a demonstration of how it's made followed by your own glass, paired with traditional cicchetti like codfish and sardines.
  7. Cannaregio
    20m
    You'll close the tour with a seasonal sweet, a silky tiramisu from November to March or a fresh, creamy gelato from March to October, Venice's favorite way to end the afternoon.
