Description
Enjoy a historical walking tour from Piazza San Marco until Rialto Bridge, passing through the most important Venetian highlights.
Listen to history and legends of Piazza San Marco admire the Palazzo Ducale, The St.Mark's Basilica, the Clock- tower, the Bridge of Sighs and many others!
Enter in the labyrinth of “calli” (venetian narrow streets) to discover some of the most important historical highlights such as Campo Santa Maria Formosa, the Marco Polo's House, the Basilica di San Giovanni e Paolo known as the Venetian Pantheon, the Fenice Opera House and many other fascinating places known only by the locals.
During the afternoon, enjoy a gondola ride. The gondola crosses the Grand Canal and its minor waterways reachable only by this special boat. During the ride, the local guide explains the history of the Palaces and tells about the gondola and gondoliers. Admire the Fenice Opera House, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute and finally enjoy a breathtaking overview of Piazza San Marco from the water.
At the end of the gondola tour, you receive a QR code to download a digital map with 2D images of Venice from the middle ages until the 18th century.
An essential tour for the understanding of Venice!
