Cruise ships don't stop long in every port of call and time to tour is often precious and limited. So what about a private guide waiting for you at the pier to transfer you onto a private boat to Saint Mark's crossing through the Grand Canal? You'll get started with the city from the very fist moment as your boat glides through Venice's main water way. Later you'll be reaching the city centre where you'll begin a walking tour featuring the highlights of the city. San Marco square first including the 900 years old cathedral, later a walk through less touristic areas where you can sense the flavour of the real Venice. And finsish by the Rialto Market area, the true heart of Venice.
You can share the cost of the tour with just a few like-minded travel mates: contact us for a fully customizable shore excursion in Venice. |
