With a local English-speaking guide, you will discover old traditions where the Venetian and Jewish culture blend together perfectly. The tour will start in the Cannareggio quarter. Next you will reach the Old Ghetto and explore the old traditions that are kept alive to this day. Once in the Jewish Ghetto you will taste some Sarde al Saor and Artichoke bottoms, all combined with some delicious wine.
