Dive into the winding streets and maze-like waterways of charming Venice as you head out on a fascinating walking tour and explore the city's canals on a traditional gondola. Scope out the stunning architecture in Piazza San Marco and uncover hidden pockets of the city that can only be found by boat.
Meet up with your guide beneath the long shadow of St Mark's Campanile. Snap a photo of the tower's lofty clock, let your guide point out the Venetian Gothic features of the opulent Doge's Palace, and learn how the Byzantine Empire influenced the construction of the enormously elegant edifice of Saint Mark's Basilica.
Scope out the centuries-old churches of Santi Giovanni e Paolo in the Castello area and find out what performances are being held at the historic Malibran Theatre.
After some wishful window shopping in the Mercerie, climb aboard a spacious gondola and let your striped shirt-wearing gondolier guide your graceful craft into the busy waters of the Grand Canal. Drift down quiet canals and watch typical Venetian life unfold as you're guided around the city, ultimately arriving back at your starting point near Piazza San Marco, where your tour concludes.
