Venice Private Tour
Venice Private Tour
There are three options to choose from, each one with a slightly different take on Venice and its unique sights. But remember, this is a private tour, with an exclusive guide so you can make modifications to your itinerary, providing the most tailored experience possible.
Central Venice Tour
This is the tour that takes in Venice's most famous and unmissable monuments: perfect for first-time visitors to Venice and to get your bearings in the city on that first day. The tour meets by the Gallerie dell'Accademia, and from there visits the Teatro de La Fenice, one of Italy's most famous and storied theatres, St. Mark's Square - one of Italy's most famous squares. There you'll see the basilica, the graveyard, and the Doge's Palace, before heading to the Grand Canal, Scala Contarini del Bovolo, Campo Manin, and the Rialto Bridge.
Legends of Venice Tour
This tour begins at the San Simeone Piccolo church, just in front of the Santa Lucía station, and will tour the banks of the Grand Canal - taking in some of the most beautiful 'Campos' in Venice (the name for the smaller squares in the city). Your guide will immerse you in the tales of power, corruption and vice throughout Venice's long history, with the tour ending in the Sestiere de Castello - a beautiful part of Southern Venice where you can find the Venice Arsenal.
Unknown Venice Tour
This tour takes in some of Venice's lesser known, but equally impressive, sights. Beginning again at San Simeone Piccolo church, before heading away from the hustle and bustle of St. Mark's Square, to learn about how the Black Death devastated the city in the fourteenth century along the banks of the Grand Canal. Then we'll head to the San Paolo neighbourhood - where we'll get first-hand experience of the Italian 'Spritz' - not so much a drink as a way of life! Then we'll visit a traditional Squero, or gondola workshop, before finishing the tour in the Dorsoduro neighbourhood where the tour ends.
