I'm Donatella C., your private tour guide in Venice

Guide #81376

Ciao! I’m Donatella, and Venice isn't just my workplace, it’s my home and my passion. I grew up navigating these canals, and nothing brings me more joy than showing travelers the Venice that exists beyond the postcards. From the golden mosaics of St. Mark’s to the quiet, artisan workshops of Cannaregio, I’ll help you skip the crowds and experience the authentic rhythm of my city. As a licensed tour guide with years of experience, I specialize in bringing the complex history of the Venetian Republic to life. My tours are designed for the curious traveler who wants to understand the 'why' behind the beauty. Whether we are exploring the Doge’s Palace or tracing the footsteps of Casanova, my goal is to provide deep historical context mixed with the vibrant, modern-day stories that make Venice a living masterpiece. I can organize private transportation by private car and driver or by private boat. If my calendar seems full, don’t hesitate to contact me anyway. I may still be able to accommodate you.

    Dear Tamara, thank you for your feedback. It’s true we didn’t visit the Rialto Bridge because you mentioned you had already been there. However, on the way to St. Mark’s Square, I explained the history of the Rialto area, its market, and Venetian commerce. We spent the usual amount of time at the Basilica and Doge’s Palace, also because you said you found them very...
