Discover Venice beyond the crowds with a licensed local guide on a private walking experience that combines iconic highlights with hidden streets and authentic areas. Starting near the historic Rialto area, you’ll explore lively markets, picturesque canals and quiet squares while learning how Venice developed into one of the world’s greatest maritime powers.

Walk through lesser-known districts away from the busiest tourist routes, pass the area traditionally associated with Marco Polo’s house and visit Campo Santi Giovanni e Paolo, one of Venice’s most impressive historic squares. The tour also includes external visits of the city’s most important landmarks, offering insight into Venice’s history, traditions and everyday life.

A relaxed optional break at a local café allows travellers to experience Venice at a slower pace before concluding in magnificent St Mark’s Square.
