Discover the magic of Venice on foot and by water with this combined walking tour and gondola ride. Explore the historic city center with a local guide, admire the shimmering gold mosaics inside St. Mark’s Basilica, then glide through the canals aboard Venice’s most iconic form of transport.
Meet near the Rialto Bridge and learn why its construction was once considered a terrible idea. Visit the nearby Rialto Fish Market to discover Venice’s long fishing tradition and its connection to local cuisine, and collect a few restaurant tips from your guide. Continue to the sestiere (district) of Cannaregio, home to hidden gems. See the house where Marco Polo once lived, visit the unique Church of Santa Maria dei Miracoli, and admire a striking statue by Verocchio on the Campo San Giovanni and Paolo. Stroll through quiet alleyways as your guide shares stories of Venice’s rich past.
Then arrive at St. Mark’s Square and enter St. Mark’s Basilica with pre-reserved tickets, bypassing the lines. Inside, learn about the basilica’s blend of Eastern and Western design, the story behind St. Mark’s relics and how they arrived in Venice, and admire the dazzling gold mosaics.
Your guide will then leave you to enjoy a 30-minute (approximately) gondola ride with a professional gondolier. Limited to only 5 people per gondola, this experience will be both intimate and relaxing. Punt through the quieter canals of Venice as you relax and enjoy the city at its best!
