This tour is dedicated to the preservation of the traditional Venetian cultura acquea and at its center, the voga alla veneta, the Venetian style of rowing: standing up, facing forward, native to Venice and made iconic by the gondoliers.Row like a Venetian!
Get off the beaten path and onto the Venetian waterways in our beautiful bateline and try it yourself! Once you’ve become comfortable behind a Venetian oar, why not use it to go somewhere? And what better destination than a local bàcaro…or two. If there’s anything more enjoyable the learning to row Venetian style, it’s combine it with a “cicchetti” tasting with Spritz… An assortment of typical cicchetti and accompanying wines at Venice’s traditional bàcari is the perfect intro to the tastes of Venice without committing to a whole meal.
Being accompanied by a bàcaro devotèe means you might venture Venetian classics like piovra octopus, fluffy white bàcala mantecato (cooked codfish whipped with olive oil) on polenta, a savory hot polpetta meat or tuna croquet, or a speck, robiolo e tartufo crostino…when you otherwise might pass them by.
