    A Family Tradition: The Best Gelato in Venice
  • A Taste of History: Pastry Shop Since 1742. Indulge in the flavors of Venetian tradition at a pastry shop that has delighted locals since 1742. Here, you’ll savor treats like the iconic “zabaione”-filled pastries, a creamy delight lightly infused with Marsala liqueur. Famous for its cream puffs, strudels, and Venetian donuts, this bakery has withstood the test of time—and even the challenges of Venice’s “acqua alta” (high tides). In the rare case this pastry shop is closed, we’ll visit another historic gem, active since 1886, where generations of Venetians have stopped for a sweet treat.
  • Mercati di Rialto
    Through the Heart of Venice: Campo San Polo to Rialto Market. Strolling through the lively sestiere of San Polo, we’ll immerse ourselves in the vibrant atmosphere of this historic neighborhood. Passing by Campo San Polo, one of Venice's largest squares, you’ll catch glimpses of local life and centuries-old architecture. Our path leads us toward the iconic Rialto Market, a bustling hub of Venetian culture where fresh produce, aromatic spices, and the daily rhythm of local merchants bring the city to life. This is the perfect moment to soak in the charm of Venice’s everyday traditions, set against the backdrop of its timeless beauty.
  • A Gondola Ride to Cannaregio: Discover Venice’s Hidden Charm. We’ll experience a quintessential Venetian moment as we cross the majestic Grand Canal aboard a gondola traghetto, a traditional ferry used by locals for centuries. This brief but unforgettable ride offers a unique perspective of Venice's bustling waterways and iconic architecture. Arriving in Cannaregio, one of the city’s most authentic and charming districts, we’ll step into a quieter side of Venice. Known for its rich history and local character, Cannaregio invites you to wander its picturesque streets and hidden canals, uncovering the soul of this historic neighborhood.
  • Sweet Creations: Chocolate Tasting at a Women-Owned Workshop. Our journey continues to a charming chocolate workshop run by talented women who combine tradition and innovation to create their artisanal delights. Here, you’ll get a behind-the-scenes glimpse of their craft and indulge in a tasting of rich, hand-made chocolates. From velvety ganache to bold cacao flavors, this stop promises to delight every chocolate lover’s palate.
  • A Family Tradition: The Best Gelato in Venice. We’ll conclude our sweet journey at a family-run gelateria, where the third generation of a brother and sister duo continue a long-standing tradition of crafting what is arguably the best artisanal gelato in Venice. Renowned for its rich flavors and creamy textures, their pistachio gelato, made with premium pistachios from Bronte, is a must-try delicacy. It’s the perfect ending to an unforgettable Venetian experience, where every bite is a taste of local tradition and craftsmanship.
