Tour description

Do you want to discover the most artistic side of the city? Would you like to take unique pictures of Venice? If so, join our tour of Dorsoduro district!

We will tell you fun facts and legends about some of the most extravagant people who inhabited Venice, like the famous Peggy Guggenheim, the great patron of contemporary art.
There will be some mysterious atmosphere while we walk in front of Ca’ Dario and you will find out why :)
During the tour you will also have the chance to visit the astonishing Basilica della Salute and you will also have the chance to take memorable photos in the most panoramic spots of Venice!

We will also give you some valuable tips about how to organize your stay in Venice and how to avoid the most common tourist traps. We want you to enjoy Venice like a local, not like a tourist. That's the reason why at the end we will give you a QR code that provides a lot of useful information about public transport, gondola rides and our restaurant recommendations.
