Description
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
The Venice City Council requires the use of headphones in tourist groups. The guide will provide them at the start of the tour in exchange for a deposit of €15, which will be returned at the end.
We continue among churches, squares, and historic alleys — of Frari, San Rocco, San Pantaleon — discovering how faith, art, and power intertwined in the daily life of the Serenissima. Along the way, the carnival appears where you least expect it: in masks, in palaces, and in stories that remain alive.
We pass through the lively Campo Santa Margherita, cross a sotoportego with noble secrets, and arrive at the Squero di San Trovaso, one of the last gondola workshops.
The tour culminates in front of the Giudecca Canal, from where we gaze at the Redeemer in the distance — the vow Venice made to God to survive the plague — with the Redeemer and the Salute, we remember the promises of this city that never forgot its wounds.
A tour exploring less touristy places in the south of Venice, discovering incredible and dark stories at the same time.
