Wine Tasting Experience: A Venetian Toast to Italian Excellence
“Wine is not only to drink, it is to smell, observe, taste, sip and talk about” – Henry VII. This quote perfectly encapsulates the mood of TPO.Travel’s Wine Tasting Small Group Tour in Venice.
Held in a cozy Venetian tavern resembling a traditional wine cellar, this experience introduces you to Italy’s world-renowned wine culture. Under the guidance of a knowledgeable sommelier, you’ll sample two top-quality Italian wines accompanied by cold cuts and cicchetti, Venice’s iconic small-plate snacks.
Your host will not only introduce the origin, flavor profile, and ideal food pairings of each wine but also share anecdotes and traditions that make Italian wine culture so rich. This intimate event is perfect for those who want to understand the soul of Italy—one sip at a time.
Gondola Ride & Guided Walking Tour: A Romantic Venetian Classic
No trip to Venice is complete without the timeless experience of a gondola ride—and TPO.Travel enhances it by pairing it with a guided walking introduction of the San Marco district.
Begin with a 20-minute walking tour through Venice’s iconic San Marco area. Your local guide will lead you through charming alleys, revealing hidden gems and untold stories of Venice’s past. Then, step into a traditional gondola and glide along quiet canals and under elegant bridges.
For 25–30 minutes, enjoy the views of palazzos, basilicas, and quaint homes as they reflect off the water’s surface. This experience is the perfect fusion of cultural exploration and serene indulgence—ideal for couples, solo travelers, and families alike.
Hard Rock Cafe Venice: Rock ‘n’ Roll by the Lagoon
Take a break from the museums and canals and treat yourself to a bite at Hard Rock Cafe Venice, where history meets music in spectacular fashion.
Founded in London in 1971 by two hungry Americans craving a good burger, the Hard Rock Cafe brand has since become a global cultural icon, with nearly 200 cafes worldwide. The Venice outlet continues this tradition with its rock ‘n’ roll memorabilia, classic American cuisine, and a setting that beautifully merges with the city’s historic vibe.
Did you know the rock collection began when Eric Clapton hung his guitar above his favorite barstool? That guitar sparked a collection of over 74,000 pieces! Grab a burger, enjoy the music, and pick up a signature T-shirt to remember the moment.
