As one of the main ports of the Mediterranean, Venice was a crossroads of civilizations and cultures, as can be seen in its architecture. Many foreign communities resided here, each of them contributing to its history, culture, and lifestyle. We will start our visit at the Greek Orthodox Church of San Giorgio dei Greci, which is still owned by the Greek community. The elegant Renaissance façade does not reveal the beauty of this sanctuary's interior, which still houses some of the most important icons of the Orthodox world. Next stop is the Scuola di S. Giorgio degli Schiavoni, the Dalmatian confraternity. The brotherhood hired Vittore Carpaccio to decorate the headquarters with paintings dedicated to their patron saints. This is the only case, other than the Scuola di San Rocco, of a building that survived the sacking by Napoleon's troops, and it is one of the city's jewels. We will then head towards the Cannaregio neighbourhood, via Campo dei Mori, towards the Ghetto.
On tour, we will discover; -Greek Orthodox Church of San Giorgio dei Greci -Scuola di S. Giorgio degli Schiavoni -Cannaregio neighborhood -Ghetto -Synagogues (from the outside) NOTE: The itinerary can be customized according to your needs and requests In the museums, in the archaeological sites and in general in all the churches, the dress code for both men and women requires shoulders and knees to be covered. Shorts and skirts are fine, but below knees. Do not bring large items (e. g. large bags, backpacks, long umbrellas…) on tour because they are not permitted.
