Welcome to the capital of the Serenissima!
The history of Venice is one of constant improvement. The open-air wonder you're about to explore was originally a settlement of Roman refugees fleeing barbarian invasions. Do you want to learn how they transformed their city into the commercial center of the known world? Make your reservation now!
We'll walk from the Canal Grande , the city's main artery, to the vicinity of the San Marco complex . We'll visit palaces with a glorious past, such as the Pisani Palace , the Church of San Maurizio with its rather slender bell tower, and theaters that were the center of high society's social life. Did you know that the motto of the Gran Teatro de la Fenice is "Rise twice from my ashes"? Come and I'll tell you its story; the famous opera " La Traviata " premiered here!
The Doge's Palace will be an essential stop on this tour. The center of Venetian power was also a high-security prison, although... Casanova managed to escape and write a book about his exploits. No wonder!
In Piazza San Marco we will admire the wonder of a glorious past like that of the Venetian Republic, which friends and enemies called " the Dominant ."
We will end with an incredible panoramic view from the Riva degli Schiavoni , a large promenade located in the old commercial port, the Bacino di San Marco.
Don't hesitate to book the best tour to understand and fall in love with this city, like I did. Marco Polo, Marino Falier, Galileo, and Madrid's María Malibrán await you!
Final note: If the tour exceeds 10 attendees, the guide's use of earpieces is mandatory. These earpieces will be provided by the guide. In this case, a deposit may be required for each earpiece, which will be returned at the end of the tour.
