Prosecco Hills Tour from Venice — Discover Italy’s Sparkling Wine Paradise
An Enchanting Journey Through Italy’s Sparkling Wine Region
There’s something magical about leaving the canals of Venice and watching the landscape unfold into a patchwork of emerald hills, vineyards, and quiet villages. Welcome to the Prosecco Hills — where Italy’s most beloved sparkling wine is born, and where every glass tells a story of sunshine, soil, and passion.
Our Private Prosecco Hills Tour is a celebration of this UNESCO-listed region, guiding you through Conegliano, Valdobbiadene, and Vittorio Veneto — the heartlands of Prosecco Superiore DOCG. It’s not just a wine tour; it’s a journey into Veneto’s soul, filled with sweeping views, ancient mills, and bubbles that sparkle with centuries of tradition.
🚘 Departure from Venice
Your adventure begins in Venice, where your private driver and local guide will meet you at Piazzale Roma. Settle into a comfortable sedan or van, and as you leave the lagoon behind, watch the scenery transform — from the still waters of Venice to the gentle rhythm of Veneto’s countryside. Vineyards roll past your window like a living painting, each one whispering stories of family legacies and time-honored winemaking.
🍇 Discover the Prosecco Hills
As you arrive in Conegliano and Vittorio Veneto, the views are breathtaking — rows of vineyards cascading across the slopes like green waves. This area is home to Italy’s oldest wine school and the birthplace of Prosecco itself. Here, you’ll learn how geography, climate, and tradition unite to create the sparkling wine that has conquered the world.
Our local experts will introduce you to the unique terroir and explain what makes the Prosecco Superiore DOCG so distinctive — from hand-picked grapes to the famous Charmat method that gives each bottle its delicate fizz.
🥂 Wine Tasting at a Family-Run Vineyard
Your first tasting takes place in a charming local vineyard, surrounded by the soft hum of nature and panoramic views of the hills. You’ll sample several styles of Prosecco — from Brut and Extra Dry to the elegant Cartizze — each paired with light Venetian bites.
As the winemakers share their stories, you’ll gain insight into the craftsmanship behind each bubble: the patience, the harvest, the gentle pressure that gives Prosecco its joyful sparkle. It’s a moment of pure Veneto authenticity — elegant, slow, and unforgettable.
🏞️ Stop at Mulinetto della Croda
Next, you’ll visit one of the region’s most photogenic treasures: the Mulinetto della Croda. This 17th-century watermill, set against a backdrop of forest and waterfalls, feels like something from a fairytale. Stroll around the site, breathe in the fresh country air, and capture stunning photos of this peaceful corner of the Prosecco Valley.
It’s the kind of place where time slows down — a reminder that the art of wine isn’t only about what’s in the glass, but the landscapes and traditions that surround it.
🍾 The Valdobbiadene Experience
Continuing north, the road winds into Valdobbiadene, the beating heart of Prosecco production. This is where the most prestigious labels are made — including the coveted Cartizze hill, often called the “Champagne of Prosecco.”
Here, you’ll visit another renowned winery for a second tasting. The experience is intimate and luxurious, allowing you to compare vintages, learn the subtle differences between DOC and DOCG classifications, and appreciate the balance of nature and expertise behind every bottle.
With each sip, you’ll feel the spirit of this land — joyful, welcoming, and refined. Raise your glass and toast to la dolce vita.
🌅 Return to Venice
As the afternoon fades into golden light, your driver will take you back to Venice, retracing the scenic route through Veneto’s countryside. The car is quiet — the kind of silence filled with contentment — as vineyards slip into the distance.
By the time you arrive back at Piazzale Roma, you’ll carry with you more than memories of great wine. You’ll bring back the taste of Veneto itself: its hills, its people, and its generous spirit.
