Tour Details

At the indicated time, we'll meet at the Riva degli Schiavoni to begin our tour of Venice's largest neighbourhoods. Are you ready to tour Venice's most beautiful areas?

First, we'll cross the Bridge of Sighs to go to St. Mark's Square, the Clock Tower, and the Doge's Palace, which has served as the seat of Government and Court of Justice. We'll discuss its various historical uses.

We'll visit the elegant Café Florian, one of the oldest in Venice, and admire St. Mark's Basilica with its golden domes and mosaics, symbols of the Venetian Republic's greatness.

Next, we will explore the authentic side of the Castello neighbourhood, walking through narrow streets and passing the House of Marco Polo on our way to the Basilica of San Giovanni e Paolo and the Campiello del Remer.

We'll then head to the Rialto neighbourhood and reach the Rialto Bridge, the oldest bridge over the Grand Canal. Here, we will enjoy stunning views of gondolas and Venetian life.

After a 1.5 to 2-hour tour, we'll conclude at this final point.
