Dorsoduro is where I was born and raised. It is the Southern part of Venice and one of the liveliest districts in town. Bright, quiet and with the most beautiful (to me) promenade in town! I will meet you in front of the Accademia Gallery - the main Museum of Venetian Art - and then guide you through the entire neighbourhood, which stretches from the former Customs House of the Venetian Republic to Campo Santa Margherita. On our way we will encounter, among others, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Salute Church, one of the last Gondola yards in town and much more. You will learn about Venice's origins and listen to a full set of curiosities connected to our days life. The tour ends in Campo Santa Margherita, a lively Venetian square with a local tiny fish market, full of bars and little restaurants where you can take a rest.
The walk starts near the Accademia bridge, from the top of which you can enjoy one of the most beautiful views on the Grand Canal. We head to the easternmost tiptoe of Dorsoduro, the so called 'Punta della Dogana', the former Customs House of the Venetian Republic. We pass by the Peggy Guggenheim Museum and the Salute church, one of the 'plague churches' of the city. We walk back through the 'Zattere', a long and bright embankment with a wonderful view on the Giudecca island. We reach the inner side of the district encompassing beautiful squares and churches and, last but not least, one of the last gondola-yards of Venice. We finish the tour In Campo Santa Margherita where you can enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of good wine, if not a proper meal. -The tour ends back to the Accademia bridge.
