VIP Semi Private Venice Walking Tour with Gondola Ride & Traditional Spritz- Small Group

This exclusive semi private walking tour guided by a professional art and history guide will give you a comprehensive and pleasant introduction to the art, the history and culture of the “floating city”, with a glimpse on unusual spots.

After meeting your guide, you'll start the pleasant walk through the enchanting and mysterious cobble-paved alleys, streets and bridges (Calli, Ponti, Rughette) to reach the most beautiful sights, admiring the sumptuous palaces and glimpses of eternity, as you discover the grandeur of St Mark’s Square, a showpiece which beautifully represents the splendor of Venice's past, crowned by the Venetian-Byzantine domes of the grandiose St Mark’s Basilica.

Then to the gothic architecture of the Doge's Palace, once seat of the government, Palace of Justice and prison, as well as home of the Doge and the hauntingly Bridge of Sighs. Within the comfort of a semi-private tour, you can enjoy Venice’s ancient and noble atmosphere, which remained unchanged for centuries.

Next, it will be time for a well-deserved aperitivo, with a venetian Spritz, of course! After learning about culture and a typical aperitivo, no Venetian experience is complete without a gondola ride! The gondola ride is like no other, an exclusive itinerary with stops in the most picturesque and off the beaten path canals, along with the most iconic attractions. Be ready to take the most original pictures! Romantic, special and unexpected views of the city from its founding element, water, is the perfect way to end this semiprivate tour of Venice.
