Venice Private Tours

Venice sits on a cluster of lagoon islands and has no cars, so you walk everywhere: over the Rialto, along the Zattere waterfront, into the quiet calli of Cannaregio and Castello. Ride the number 1 vaporetto the length of the Grand Canal, reach the Basilica early, then eat cicchetti standing up with a small glass of wine. Spring and early autumn suit walking best; winter brings the highest tides and the emptiest squares.

Introduction to Venice

Venice sits on a cluster of lagoon islands and has no cars, so you walk everywhere: over the Rialto, along the Zattere waterfront, into the quiet calli of Cannaregio and Castello. Ride the number 1 vaporetto the length of the Grand Canal, reach the Basilica early, then eat cicchetti standing up with a small glass of wine. Spring and early autumn suit walking best; winter brings the highest tides and the emptiest squares.
