What reviews can tell you

There is no evidence here for attributing specific comments to travellers. Compare the latest reviews on Viator.

Getting there and what to check

Travellers make their own way to the meeting point. The source suggests walking or taking line 1: get off at Rialto Mercato for the morning or San Tomà for the evening, followed by about a 2-minute walk from either stop. There is no hotel pickup, hotel return or private transport.

The source spells the morning square both Campo de Becarie and Campo Beccarie; confirm the exact meeting instructions on your booking. The activity ends at the cooking school, with no return transport specified.
