I was born and raised in one of the most authentic district of Venice, Cannaregio. After a degree in languages the love for my city, history and art, brought me directly into the professional world of turism, starting as tour leader/escort in 2008 to then get a license as a tour guide 3 years ago. I think that the beauty of the city is the city itself, the little details, secrets, hidden behind a corner the make Venice so unique. I like to show my clients the various aspects of the city, the showpieces as well as the unknown places, the famous islands and the little ones spreaded around the lagoon. I'm a foodie so another passion is to bring people around "osteria" to taste the local cicchetti(tapas) and wine. And if you want I am happy to customize the tour for you. Please inquire for a quote. Degree in languages- Tour guide license - Port authority pass. None

Overview of your Venice tour

Venice has a food culture quite unlike anywhere else in Italy - or the world, for that matter. There is no farmable land here; so no meat, dairy or grains. Originally constructed of wood, the whole city was a fire hazard; so no wood-burning ovens for pizza. However, as a trading city, Venice had access to spices from around the world, not to mention an endless supply of fish. On this tour, you'll get to the heart of the city through its stomach! We'll be visiting the Rialto Fish Market and the best cicchetti bars as well as a true venecian district a little away from the crowd.

Mattia is a wonderful guide to Venice - a PhD in History who provided us with so much more than a food tour. We learned a ton about the wonderful city of Venice, from history to architecture to culture. We covered a lot of ground in our three hours together and came away feeling that we had a much better understanding of Venice. And of course the cicchetti and wine were great too! Mattia also gave us suggestions on restaurants and helped us onto a water taxi at the end of our time together. We hope to return to Venice and have the chance to take another tour with Mattia!

We had a great experience tour with Mattia Mialich. We found out so much information about Venice that we had previously did not know. Mattia was very informative, extremely knowledgeable, very friendly, and easy to communicate with. His knowledge of Venice is remarkable since he grew up in Venice he was able to concentrate on local places and distinguished landmarks. The history he shared was just so welcoming and my husband and I were very enthusiastic and had a wonderful day (3) hour tour with Mattia.

Your Venice tour itinerary

-We'll be strolling around the districts of S. Polo and S. Marco visiting some of the best local "osteria" to taste local cicchetti(venecian tapas) and wine. -We'll be stopping at 3 Osteria for about 30 min each, the walking distance between the various Osteria is very short so there's no big walking effort required.
