A private walking and gondola tour in Venice
Overview
Available languages

Mobile ticket
Venice is a unique city, where land merges with water; alleys and canals are part of the same, dense fabric, connecting the city side by side in an almost incomprehensible way.
This is why walking and boating are the two main ways to discover the secrets of Venice: this private guided tour will allow you to enjoy both of them.
After a pleasant stroll, which will touch iconic locations such as Piazza San Marco, you will board on a typical "gondola", a small rowing boat which is one of the symbols of Venice worldwide. In about half an hour, cradled by the placid waters of shady canals, you will witness the beauties of this amazing city form a completely different point of view.

What To Expect
Piazza San Marco
Also known as the "Salotto d'Europa" - European lounge - this magnificent place is the only actual square in Venice: the others, much smaller, are usually called "campi". The square is sided by architectural masterpieces such as the two palaces of Procuratie Vecchie and Procuratie Nuove, buio between the 16th and 17th century; the Basilica of San Marco, the Marciana Library by Jacopo Sansovino and the Ducal Palace.
Palazzo Ducale
The ancient residence of Venetian "Dogi", the highest authority in town during the republican age (9th - 18th century), is a masterpiece of the local variety of Gothic style. It was initially built in the 9th century, but enlarged and restored several times through the years, especially because of frequent fires. Today it is the seat of a Museum, attracting every year more than 1.300.000 people.
