Excellent Tour - From the the second we met Vanessa she was very engaging. Her knowledge of the area and her love of the culture came through throughout the tour. We started with a fantastic first round of food at Gam Gam and moved on to a nearby bakery. Then a little coffee, followed by ciccheti and an aperitivo. Next came pasta followed by gelato. Everything was delicious. All through out the tour Vanessa shared interesting information about the ghetto. Highly recommend this tour! Loved it!

Jewish Quarter Gems - This was an excellent presentation of the history of the Jewish Ghetto Quarter. It was also a food tour and the food was quite good and a lot. We did 5 food stops. I was the only client and got excellent one on one about the history and Jewish culture.

A Flavorful Journey! - Our Jewish Ghetto food, wine and gelato tour with Vanessa was an absolute delight, blending rich history with unforgettable flavors. From the kosher bakery’s cookies to the small plate samples and seafood ragu…and a unique Venetian Select spritz, every stop was a treat. Vanessa’s warmth and knowledge made the evening seamless, even when we nearly missed the start. A perfect 5-star experience that you will not walk away from hungry!

Exceptional food tour of Cannaregio and the Jewish Community - Really great tour with Vanessa for the history, the many stories, delicious food and drinks, and overall experience of being in the Jewish community neighborhoods in Venice. So much to learn. The food stops were excellent; the food and drinks were most generously served, tasty, and very high quality. We appreciated being introduced to authentic restaurants, bakeries and historical places that we would have most likely missed on our own. Vanessa was so outgoing, friendly and open to conversations, questions, and really insightful discussions on whole range of Venetian culture. The pacing is very comfortable, never felt rushed. We felt this tour exceeded our expectations due to Vanessa’s professionalism and her friendly way of engaging us as both new and repeat visitors to Venice.

The highlight of our Venice experience - Seeing the ghetto was truly an experience worth repeating. The history and the food were spectacular, but what really made it, was our guide, Vanessa. She was fun, knowledgeable and a great ambassador to Venice. We felt so lucky to have gotten her as our guide.

Great food for thought - This was a true highlight of our trip to Italy. Our guide was amazing! She took the time to answer questions and gave us the best tips for the remainder of our stay in Venice. The food was delicious and every place she took us to was amazing! The history of Venice, specifically the Jewish Ghetto, is so unique and I would highly recommend this tour to anyone planning to visit.

Vanessa took us through the Jewish ghetto in Venice. It's a storyteller! He shared interesting and curious facts. - An entertaining and delicious tour we visited places we would not have found on our own. We met very special stories and moments, it was subtle with the sad part of this one.
Grazie Vanessa!
