Sweet Venice: traditional cafès and pastry shops walk
Description
Discover Venice through its most delightful treats on this two-hour walking tour, perfect for families and anyone with a sweet tooth.
We’ll begin at a historic pastry shop to sample classic Venetian specialties, like pastries filled with zabaione cream — a favorite of generations of locals. Then we’ll visit a women-owned chocolate workshop where handmade confections are crafted with passion and creativity.
After indulging in chocolate, we’ll hop on a traditional gondola traghetto for a short ride across the Grand Canal — a fun and scenic way to experience the city from the water.
Our journey ends at a beloved family-run gelateria, where you’ll taste creamy, all-natural gelato made with the finest ingredients — including pistachios from Bronte.
As we walk, your guide will share stories and hidden corners of Venice, blending history, daily life, and culinary traditions into one sweet experience. A delicious way to connect with authentic, family-run businesses in the heart of the city.
