Discover Venice from an authentic and privileged perspective with an exclusive tour that combines cultural exploration, relaxation and scenic beauty.

The tour takes place in a quiet and personalized atmosphere, with an expert guide who will guide you to discover the history, palaces and local curiosities, away from the most tourist routes.
The combination of culture, navigation and aperitif with a view makes this a unique experience, ideal for couples, small groups or those looking for a refined and unforgettable way to experience Venice.
