Your first stop will be at a charming local bacaro in the Rialto area, where you'll experience the authentic Venetian tradition of enjoying cicchetti (small tapas-style dishes) paired with a glass of ombra (local wine).
Duration: 20 minutes
Follow your guide and proceed your walk to San Polo district where you’ll find the famous Ponte de le Tette — the “Bridge of the Breasts.” Its name comes from a curious tradition during the Venetian Republic, when the area was a red-light district and courtesans would bare their chests from windows to attract clients. A quirky slice of Venice’s colorful past!
