Discover the jewels of Venice in just 1 day!
Experience the real essence of the city with your native Venetian guide, who will be showing you around this fascinating labirinth rich of histories, legends and traditions.
From Rialto bridge, with its millenary trade center, to St. Mark's square, surrounded by the 3 "cousins": the Basilica, the Doge's Palace and the Bridge of Sighs.
Arriving in Cannaregio, where the merchants had developed their main activities, you will enjoy an authentic atmosphere, exploring an original atelier of Carnival masks.
You will also have lunch like a Venetian, with the delicious "cicheti" accompanied by the famous 'ombra' (small glass of local wine).
After the little break, you will reach by private luxury water taxi one of the oldest Murano glass factory and admire the millenary blowing glass art.
There is no better ending then a private boat ride through the Grand Canal, reflecting the sunset colors on the nobles palaces, and leaving you with the last amazing view of the city.
Ready to say.. ARRIVEDERCI VENEZIA!

Nickola was a fantastic tour guide. We had the best time touring the city with him. He took us to areas we would have never been to. His knowledge of the city made the tour so much better. We had a great lunch on the Grand Canal then visited Murano for a glass blowing demonstration. Finally our water taxi and guide took us thru the canals of Venice to get a different view of the city.

Tour operator does not communicate with the tour guide that was hired last minute & was totally unaware of our preferred historical sites to see.
I specifically said that we didn't want old neighborhoods, souvenirs, non-sense places.
Mateo our tour guide was the best! His history degree was served as well.

Natasha was fantastic! She showed us hidden gems within the city of Venice. Communication and Navigation was easy with her! She was great with the kids and understood if we needed to stop for a drink or snack. I do not find Venice the easiest city and she did such a great job of showing the highlights as well as the hidden surprises that made this the best day for our family!!!!

We could not have had a more perfect tour guide than Giovanni. He knew the city like the back of his hand and showed us the best secrets of Venice with an amazing attitude and a great sense of humor. Additionally, Giovanni was incredibly accommodating when my mother began to feel unwell and stopped at a cafe for a hot water with lemon. He also gave us an annotated map of Venice with sights, restaurants, hotels, etc. to keep! Simply put, we could not have had a more perfect tour guide than Giovanni. He is the gold standard!

Be prepared to walk a lot. If you have any mobility issues, this is not the trip for you. Very well informed, the trip was beautiful and lunch was wonderful. Marano glass factory was an experience worth seeing.

Our guide took us to lots of places that most people didn’t know about and told us interesting stories for each place. The guide was very knowledgeable and personable.

The tour was wonderful and exceeded expectations. Nico was an excellent tour guide. His knowledge of and enthusiasm for Venice definitely showed. Nico made sure we saw all the sights we wanted and also showed us many hidden gems.
The place Nico chose for lunch was excellent and highlighted the local food and wine cuisine. The trip to the glass factory was very entertaining and one part of the trip one of our party had always wanted to see.
The boat ride through Venice was the highlight of the tour. It was something that we had not even considered but were so glad we did.
Thank you again Nico for an exceptional experience.

This private tour of Venice exceeded all expectations.
The booking was simple & fast; our tour guide “Giovanni Bandini” communicated with us setting clear instructions on where to meet, tour expectations, etc.
He met us at our hotel and our incredible embrace of Venice started the moment we exited the hotel.
Some highlights included all the major attractions, however, the special added bonus was Giovanni’s tour of the Venice hidden gems not always noted for tourist (tucked away churches; palaces with significant history; detailed explanations of the palace emblems / markings; key local restaurants to try; best local Cichetti & wine, etc).
Bottom line , spending the day with Giovanni brought to life for us “the real Venice” and the depth / beauty of the Venetians.
Thanks again Giovanni
Tim & Scott
