Activity Details

Nestled in the Royal Gardens of Venice, right behind the iconic St. Mark's Square, you'll find a former greenhouse transformed into the delightful illy Caffè. With its beautiful design, the space enjoys perfect natural lighting all day, creating a setting you’re bound to fall in love with!

Your experience kicks off with crafting one of Italy’s iconic cocktails, the beloved spritz, blending Prosecco, Aperol, and sparkling water. Fun fact: every spritz variation has its unique twist! For a bolder flavor, try it with Select or Campari. Paired with this refreshing drink, you’ll enjoy a selection of cicchetti—classic Venetian appetizers, including savory tapas and crispy vegetable chips. If you choose the morning aperitif option, in addition to enjoying two cicchetti, you'll also be served a main course and a typical regional dessert.

This experience is crafted to immerse you in authentic Venetian dining while you unwind in a cozy, inviting space. From here, depending on the option you choose, you can enjoy the beautiful views offered by the area at midday or watch the sunset while admiring St Mark's Basin and the the lush Royal Gardens. You'll love it!

Plus, you’ll have access to a mobile app guiding you through six unique Venice itineraries. Discover bacari (typical Venetian taverns) and dive into the secrets of the city with an audio guide covering over 200 fascinating points of interest across the canals.
