Itinerary
1 Arrival in Bassano del Grappa
2 Hike around Bassano and grappa tasting [no coach transfers required for this excursion]
We leave on foot from our hotel to explore the surroundings of Bassano del Grappa. We start from the lively historic centre which has an unmistakable Venetian soul. Having crossed the famous Ponte Vecchio, designed by Andrea Palladio, we go up the river Brenta and then climb up to the small Hermitage of San Bovo on Monte Costa. We continue to Contrà Privà from where you can enjoy splendid views of Bassano and the Brenta valley. Returning to Bassano we will pass by the beautiful Villa Angarano, a magnificent example of a Venetian villa. Back in the city centre we enjoy a visit of the Poli Museum of Grappa followed by a tasting of the famous distillate.

3 Prosecco Hills and wine tasting
Our guided walk begins in the Valdobbiadene Prosecco area on the ‘‘Prosecco Ring“ nature trail. This 10km route takes us through the villages of San Pietro di Barbozza, Santo Stefano and Saccol, which form part of the Valdobbiadene region and which can all call on a long tradition of viticulture. We visit a local wine cellar where we will learn interesting facts about the production of wine before sampling the local Valdobbiadene Prosecco DOC accompanied by a selection of tasty regional products. Enjoy!

4 Urban trekking in Venice and Bacaro Tour
In the morning we take the train to the romantic lagoon city of Venice. Together with our tour guide we will stroll through the Venice of the Venetians along narrow streets, away from the hordes of tourists, a city which is full of fascination even in its most hidden corners. Looking out from the Rialto Bridge, the Canale Grande lined with the palaces of noble Venetian families can be admired in its full glory.
Around midday we enjoy a Bacaro Tour. This tour takes in some of the city’s most ancient osterias, where we enjoy glasses of local wine. We stop at 3 different osterias. Each one offers an appetizer, a typical speciality of the Veneto region, to accompany the glass of wine. It may be hot or cold, meat or fish – the choice depends on the season and the personal taste of the Oste (the bacaro owner) – this is what locals call a cicchetto.
Walking time: about 4 hours
Vertical height difference: minimal
Degree of difficulty: easy
