🟢 Walking Tour – The Heart of Venice Unveiled
Your adventure begins with a one-hour guided walk through Venice’s most emblematic sites. From the monumental Piazza San Marco, admire the lively Campo Santa Maria Formosa, and wander to the Pantheon of Venice at Campo Santi Giovanni e Paolo. Along the way, reach the Riva del Carbon for a striking view of the Rialto Bridge. It’s the best way to discover the city and capture unforgettable photos as you go.
🔵 Grand Canal Audioguides – Poetry on the Water
Glide along the Grand Canal aboard the vaporetto, Venice’s floating main street, and let our audioguides transform your ride into a moving tale. Hear the whispers of merchant palaces, the laughter of masked revellers, and the songs of gondoliers as you drift between centuries of grandeur. The water itself becomes a storyteller, carrying you through the heart of Venice.
🟢 VR Experience: History Gallery & Gondola Gallery
Slip on your headset and travel through centuries of Venetian history. Watch the Doge’s Palace rise as a medieval fortress, see the Rialto Bridge transform from wood to stone, and relive the Carnival of the 1700s with its whirl of masks, gondolas, and music.
Then, step into a Venetian palace to uncover the secrets of the gondola: admire a real cross-section, touch a handcrafted oar, sit inside a reconstructed felze (the traditional cabin that once sheltered passengers), and glide virtually along the Grand Canal as noble Venetians once did. A journey where history and innovation meet, bringing Venice vividly to life.
🟠 Palazzo delle Prigioni – Stories of Justice, Escape & Intrigue
Continue your experience with a visit to the evocative Prisons Palace, the old city prison linked to the Doge’s Palace by the Bridge of Sighs. Within these walls echo tales of justice, power, and daring escape attempts — including the legendary flight of Casanova, whose audacity still stirs Venice’s imagination today.
🔵 Procuratie Vecchie – Venice’s Living Memory
Step inside the recently restored Procuratie Vecchie, overlooking Piazza San Marco. Here, centuries of Venetian history blend with modern storytelling. Explore its interactive exhibition on the city’s past and present, then enjoy a break in the panoramic café with breathtaking views over St Mark’s Square.
