This tour, which surely features high levels of blood sugar, will make you discover all the six "Sestrieri" (neighbourhoods) of Venice: Castello, San Marco, Dorsoduro, San Polo, Santa Croce and Cannaregio, including a panoramic view of the Giudecca island.
This tour is meant for sweet tooth connoisseurs, eager to taste the traditions and the cultural richness of the city through its historical bakeries, cafés and pastry shops!
Espresso coffees, delicious pastries, ice creams and tiramisù will power you across dozens of bridges we will face!
We will stop in local bakeries which provided Venetians with fresh reasons to roll out of bed over centuries; in historical cafès surrounded by baroque mirrors; in shops serving the top quality of creams and pastries where gondoliers and venetian housewives flock to devour the buttery, just-baked sweetness of Venetian specialties.
You will be mesmerized by traditional cream puffs and biscuits surrounded by the pleasant smell of Italian espresso.

This is a fantastic tour with an informative, fun and interesting guide. The food was good and we got to experience all things like the Venetians. We got lots of additional hints and tips to make our time in Venice even more enriching.

Valerio was amazing!! Showed us a side of Venice we wouldn’t have seen otherwise and it was amazing to try some hidden gem sweets only the Venetians know about! Off the beaten path was just what we needed to see in Venice!

This was a fun tour because we learned about historical shops and got to try local pastries which were delicious! Valerio is an amazing guide and he will treat you like a friend and help you with any questions you have about Venice. He even texted me what stop to get off on the water taxi after I got lost! I’ve never encountered a guide as nice as Valerio. The gondola ride across the canal was an incredible experience!!! I highly recommend this tour!

My family had a great time joining this tour. Our guide was funny and personable. We got to taste various pastries and beverages/ coffee/ ice cream. I like that it’s a small group allowing more interactions with the local guide. Keep in mind that these pastry shops are small, so no place to sit. The tour was a bit overpriced. Nevertheless, we had fun!

The Sweet Venice tour with Valerio was WONDERFUL. A real “must do” in Venice, especially if you’re traveling with older kids/teens (ours were 10 and 13). It’s a 2 hour walking tour and Valerio will zip you through beautiful, lesser-travelled (read: less crowded!) areas of Venice, stopping along the way so you can sample pastries, chocolate, and gelato. Valerio was engaging, knowledgeable, and our 10yo called him “our best tour guide ever.” My family truly can not recommend this tour enough!

This was such a fun tour with the whole family. Valario is super knowledgeable and helpful. It was just the 3 of us in the tour and Valario customized the tour based on us. Not only did we go to sweet shops, he took us all over and explained the history of so much of Venice.

Valerio was excellent. He led through the less traveled routes of Venice to the the most amazing shops. The chocolate store and oldest bakery in Venice were our favorite. Highly recommend Valerio.

There were only two stops and we had to pay extra for the pastries at the last stop. There was not a lot of explanation of the pastries and why they were significant to Venice. Very disappointed.

This was such a fun tour. We got more information than just pastries. It was a lot of fun and we got to learn a lot.
