Itinerary

1. Canal Grande

The Grand Canal is the main canal through the historic centre of Venice. About 3800 metres long, it divides the historic centre into two parts, tracing an inverted 'S', which runs from the Ponte della Libertà to the Bacino di San Marco.

Duration: 20 mins

2. Piazza San Marco

Gem of Venice, Piazza San Marco is one of the must-sees places if you're visiting this beautiful city.

Duration: 5 mins

3. Casa di Marco Polo

Marco Polo was an Italian traveller, writer, ambassador and merchant. The report of his travels in the Far East is collected in the work Il Milione, a veritable geographical encyclopaedia that brings together the essential knowledge available in Europe at the end of the 13th century about Asia.

4. Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute

Santa Maria della Salute is a basilica in Venice built in the area of Punta della Dogana, from where it stands out in the panorama of St Mark's Basin and the Grand Canal. Designed by Baldassare Longhena with attention to Palladio's models, it is one of the best expressions of Venetian Baroque architecture. Its construction was a votive offering to the Virgin Mary by the Venetians to save them from the plague, which decimated the population between 1630 and 1631, as had happened previously with the Church of the Redeemer. The cult became so deeply rooted in Venice that the Virgin Mary was added to the list of patron saints of the city of Venice. In December 1921 Pope Benedict XV elevated it to the rank of minor basilica.

5. Teatro La Fenice

The Gran Teatro La Fenice, located in the Sestiere di San Marco in Campo San Fantin, is today the main opera house in Venice and one of the most prestigious in the world. Every year it holds the traditional New Year's Concert. Twice destroyed and rebuilt, it has been the venue for major opera and symphonic seasons and the International Festival of Contemporary Music.

6. Basilica Dei Santi Giovanni E Paolo

The basilica of Saints John and Paul is one of the most impressive medieval religious buildings in Venice, together with the basilica of Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari. It is considered the pantheon of Venice due to the large number of Venetian doges and other important figures who have been buried there since the 13th century. It stands in the campo of the same name, in the Castello district. In September 1922 Pope Pius XI elevated it to the dignity of a minor basilica.

7. Campo Santa Maria Formosa

Campo Santa Maria Formosa is a campo in Venice, located in the Castello district. It is one of the largest squares in the city: a total of nine calli and eleven bridges (some of which simply connect the entrances to the palaces) branch off from it. The name is due to the presence of the church of Santa Maria Formosa.

From November 1st to March 31st, tour may be operated with a bilingual guide in the event two different language-groups are combined (information will be presented in both languages)
