Overview

What better way to explore a city built on water than on a private boat tour? As you cruise down the Grand Canal, you will see palaces, churches, bridges, gardens and warehouses that line this famous waterway. Learn more about the city and its famous waterways that cuts through the city. This tour also takes you to some of the minor canals of Venice that will take you to ‘Hidden Venice’ – the not-so-frequented but equally enchanting parts of the city.

Your private guide will meet you in the St. Marks area and take you to board your private motor launch for a Grand Canal boat tour.

Cruise down the Grand Canal, from where you will get a wonderful view of some of the most iconic monuments of Venice such as the Santa Maria della Salute, Ca d’ Oro and the Rialto Bridge. Your guide will point out all the buildings of interest on the way and enthral you with their fascinating stories.

Your tour takes place on a small motor launch which means you can also cruise along some of the minor canals to see a hidden side of Venice which most tourists never see.

The tour ends in the centre of Venice.
