Your Itinerary

Canal Grande

Grand Canal, the largest canal in Venice, built in Venetian-Gothic style. Venice’s canals, which cross the city like streets, are one of the most notable feature of Venice. The largest is the Grand Canal, which divides the city in two, with its four kilometers in length.

Chiesa di San Giorgio dei Greci

Campanile di San Giorgio dei Greci, or the 'leaning clocktower', was designed by Simone Sorella and completed in 1592. It apparently started tilting from the beginning of its construction. Like its adjoining church, the bell tower was built by and for the Greek community in Venice, primarily sailors and merchants. You will also have the chance to see the Sanctuary of St.Lucy.

Admission Not Included

Strada Nova

The widest street in Venice. The entire route, which is made up of wide streets connected by bridges, was created during the 19th century to create rapid pedestrian access between Rialto and the railway station, demolishing the buildings that would otherwise delimit a long tortuous path between narrow streets.

Ponte di Rialto

The Rialto bridge is the oldest of the four bridges spanning the Grand Canal in Venice. It is famous for both its architecture and its history. For years it was the hub of Venice's economy.

St. Mark's Basilica

St. Mark's square is the principal public square in Venice and is one of the most fascinating squares in the world, so much so that Napoleon Bonaparte defined it as "the most beautiful hall in Europe". The Patriarchal Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark, commonly known as St Mark's Basilica, is the cathedral church of the Patriarchate of Venice. The interior of the domes, the vaults, and the upper walls were slowly covered with gold-ground mosaics depicting saints, prophets, and biblical scenes.

Admission Not Included

Ponte dei Sospiri

Called the Bridge of Sighs by locals, this emblematic monument of Venice was built in the 1600s and connects the Doge's Palace with the historic prison on the other side of the canal. It was given this name because tradition has it that, at the time of the Serenissima, the prisoners, crossing it, sighed at the prospect of seeing the outside world for the last time.

Chiesa di San Zaccaria

The Church of San Zaccaria is a 15th-century former monastic church in central Venice. It is a large edifice, located in the Campo San Zaccaria. The present church was built between 1458 and 1515. The facade is a harmonious Venetian mixture of late-Gothic and Renaissance styles.

Admission Not Included

Ponte dell'Accademia

The Ponte dell'Accademia is one of only four bridges to span the Grand Canal in Venice. It crosses near the southern end of the canal, and is named for the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia.

Squero di San Trovaso

The squero of San Trovaso is one of the oldest and most famous Venetian squeros. The squero is the classic shipyard where small-sized boats such as gondolas are repaired. Have a peek at how a gondola is made or repaired!

Campo San Pantalon

Reach the beautiful Campo San Pantalon to admire the beautiful painting by Banksy commonly referred to as "the shipwrecked/migrant child".

Campo Santa Margherita

Campo Santa Margherita is a city square in the sestiere of Dorsoduro of Venice. It is located near university buildings and serves as a gathering place for students at the end of the day.

Piazzale Roma

Piazzale Roma is a square at the entrance of the city, at the end of the Ponte della Libertà. Piazzale Roma and nearby Tronchetto island are the only places in Venice's insular urban core accessible to ground motor vehicles, such as automobiles and buses.

We booked a stress-free private day-tour of Venice from Rome through Viator. It included pick up at our hotel near the Colosseum, train tickets, drop-off at the train station. Our tour guide, Mehmet, was punctually waiting or us at the station in Venice. He was, pleasant, genuine, and had a thorough knowledge of Venice's history, architecture and events, and he was very accommodating to our needs and requests. We were very lucky to have him as a guide.

Mehmet was very knowledgeable and friendly. My birthday was amazing in Venice. Mehmet took us through all the major streets and gave us the history and current updates on what's going on in the city. We walked over 17 different bridges and got to ride on the boat. Wonderful day trip!

Agustin_H

The trip was good, however we had a hard time finding the train on our own.. Probably a little more direction on how to find the train and how the train system work in Rome.

James_P

Dogan Acar escorted us on a wonderful walking tour of Venice! His knowledge of the history of this special city was an added benefit! Highly recommend!

Genty_A

Gondola ride with our guide taking pictures for us. Lot of memories. Dream comes true. Will do it again any time.

David_P

The driver that picked us up at the hotel was very prompt and walked us to our train station area and assured us we would be picked up at the end when we came back. When we got to Venice, our tour guide, Daphne was there waiting for us, and was a pleasure to be with, she treated us like we were family or old friends. I would recommend her for any tour when we arrived back in Rome and came off the train. Our driver was not there and we waited 1/2 hour for him to show up. He didn’t unfortunately, as we were very tired , we were disappointed and had to find a taxi back to our hotel. What is the oil? Otherwise everything was wonderful.

Our tour guide, while working on her masters degree, has been living in Venice for four years. She made sure we learned the interesting facts , like there are 420 bridges connecting the 6 regions of Venice. That Mozart lived there as a child, and you can see his house. Many other interesting facts, and made sure we took a gondola ride and went to the top of the bell tower to see a complete 360 degree view of Venice

Gloria_H

We had a great guide, so personable. A lot of walking but we saw everything we expected and we had a gondola ride in addition. Weather was perfect. She guided us back to the train station in time. The churches and cathedrals were awesome.

Phylis_S

Our guide, Defne, was wonderful!! She took the time to understand what we were interested in and helped us have the best experience we could have imagined. Ask for her.
