We had a great time tasting and strolling through the Venice neighborhoods with a small group of fellow hungry tourists. It was fun to meet the other visitors from several countries. Best of all was our young, vivacious guide, Georgia! She was fantastic! She gave us a great background and history on the food and culture and was a delightful hostess for her city. This was my husband’s favorite activity in Venice!”

“Mario was an EXCELLENT guide. He knew the area very well and had lots of knowledge he was willing to share about wine. Also, he was a very careful driver and I felt very safe traveling with him. It was a wonderful tour of two family wineries that were very different from one another, who both produced excellent quality Prosecco but in very different styles. If you are interested in wine, local customs and traditions, and even history of the region, Mario is a GREAT guide and companion.”
