BEST OF · ITALY TAPAS TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 4 italy tapas tours worth the money, each with its price, its traveller verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Walk through lesser-seen Venice with an English-speaking local guide, stopping at traditional bacari for cicchetti and three glasses of wine. Guides such as Gianmarco and Barbara add history, legends, food tips, and a friendly small-group feel. The two-hour route begins and ends at Enoteca Al Volto.
“such a nice group of people and the guide was fabulous 🤩”
Meet near the Oratorio delle Dame for a two-hour tasting led by Adriano, the owner of 26mq Urban Winery. Try four Sicilian wines from small producers, paired with local tapas, in a hand-built wine bar near Ballarò. Expect generous pours, personal stories, and the option to sit on a small balcony overlooking an 18th-century church.
“Super nice small winebar and very friendly personnel. Great wines.”
Meet at 4 pm near Rialto for a two to two-and-a-half-hour walk through Venice. A local guide such as Gianmarco or Giancarlo leads you to traditional bacari for cichetti and three local wines, with stops around Campo Santa Margherita, the Frari, and San Rocco. Expect a relaxed social outing, not a formal wine class.
“This tour was casual, easy, and fun! The food was great as was our guide. We enjoyed checking out new places slightly off the beaten path. We would definitely recommend this experience to anyone visiting Venice!”
Meet at Rosinita restaurant in Olbia’s Piazza Mercato for ten chef-made Sardinian tapas served with three seasonal wines. Expect bread, waffles, bowls, meat, fish, vegetables, cheeses, charcuterie, and dessert-style bites. The menu changes monthly, children receive a separate soft-drink menu, and Italian or English service is available.
“The food was so good! Perfect amounts to fill you up but not overly stuffed”
A city, a counter, or a particular kind of evening.
