Description

Our exclusive (very) small-group walking tour guided by a professional and expert history and cultural guide will give you a comprehensive and pleasant introduction to the art, the history, and the amazing local food & wine scene at once, in a fun informative and tasteful way like no other tour.

After meeting your guide, you will start out pleasant walk through the enchanting and mysterious cobble-paved alleys streets and bridges (Calli, Ponti, Rughette) to reach the most beautiful sights admiring the sumptuous palaces and glimpses of eternity, as you discover the grandeur of St Mark’s Square, a showpiece which beautifully represents the splendor of Venice's past, crowned by the Venetian-Byzantine domes of the grandiose St Mark’s Basilica. Then to the gothic architecture of the Doge's Palace, once seat of the government, Palace of Justice and prison, as well as home of the Doge and the hauntingly Bridge of Sigh. We’ll stops at local shops and the traditional “Cicchetti” for tasting of local products, refreshments and enjoyment of your soul and palate.

A final “gran finale” which combines the two souls of this tour and the city itself will be made at the unmissable, iconic Ponte di Rialto over the Grand Canale, where you will learn why the beautiful and daring structure was predicted to fall (while still standing after more than 400years..) and then the tasty conclusion in a special very-local atmosphere enjoying Venetian Cicchetti and italian Aperitivo.
Make your Venetian experience even more complete, with anhalf hour Gondola Ride for a romantic, special and unexpected views of the city from its founding element, water.
