This small group day tour of Venice can be broken down into three elements, with each one playing a vital and diverse role that together help tell the unique story of Venice and the Venetians. At St. Marks Square, learn the history that lies behind the walls of its most famous landmarks to be able to appreciate how a city built on swamps became one of the most enlightened cities in the western world. The highlight of your time spent in St. Marks Square will be an in-depth tour of the interior of St. Marks Basilica which is only possible to do with a small group tour (eight or less people).
Then, escape the crowds and noise of St. Marks to enjoy a relaxing and rewarding boat tour of the Grand Canal & Minor Canals. You'll feel like VIP as you board a luxurious motor-launch to cruise down the Grand Canal. With space for everyone to sit outside to admire the wonderful views and to listen to the detailed commentary of your guide via Head-Phones. Learn about evolution of Venice's main street; the famous buildings that line its banks, the famous and infamous characters who have at one time lived on the Grand Canal.
And finally, on our Small Group Venice in 1 Day Tour, enjoy a walking tour of the Hidden Venice. A fascinating journey through a labyrinth of narrow alleys and dark passageways in the old artisan quarters of Venice where your local expert guide will reveal the secrets of this area of Venice only frequented by Venetians.
Be entertained by stories of the Merchants of Venice and their acts of cruelty, see on old prison for tax evaders, and admire picturesque bridges and palaces that provide picture postcard images of Venice at its most romantic. Pass through the old red-light district of Casteletto and cross the infamous "Ponte delle Tette". And at the Frari Church marvel at the masterpieces by Titian, Bellini and Canova.
On this small group tour of Venice you'll learn how famous Venetians, the likes of Casanova & Marco Polo, and more common citizens made this city of stone such a vibrant and magical place to live. And, of course, discover what it's like today to live in the most unique city, though not the most practical.
