Duration: 30 minutes (approximately)
  • Teatro La Fenice (Pass by)

    See the scenic tower of the famous La Fenice Theater, rebuilt exactly as it once looked and where it was located after the great fire in 1996, which affected the whole building. You will also glide underneath an elegantly carved stone bridge, dedicated to Maria Callas, who made her first Venetian debut at La Fenice thanks to her starring role in Bellini's ‘The Puritans’.

    Admission ticket free
  • Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute (Pass by)

    At the beginning of your ride, admire one of the most evocative sights of Venice, the 17th century Basilica of Santa Maria della Salute, overlooking the Grand Canal. It was designed as a votive offering by the entire city to celebrate the end of the terrible plague of 1630.

    After the Basilica della Salute, you find Punta della Dogana that divides the Grand Canal from the Giudecca Canal and where the "Palla d'Oro" stands. It is a well-known gilt bronze sphere on top of the Dogana de Mar tower.
