Walking Tour in Cannaregio Venice

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.
