Overview
If you think Venice is romantic in the day time, just wait until you experience it at night!
On this enchanting evening tour, you’ll leave the tourist places behind and go off the beaten track to discover the real Venice. Your guide will lead you across lively piazzas, explaining why so many locals choose to eat and drink outdoors and describing the traditions that bind this modern community together.
And you’ll learn about Venetian life in the olden days too. In one of the world’s oldest republics every road and building has a tale to tell. As you stroll through the narrow alleys you’ll hear scandalous stories of the aristocrats and rich merchants who indulged in all kinds of excesses in these very streets.
After the walking tour, you’ll have the chance to enjoy the ultimate Venice experience – a gondola ride. Relax as your gondolier, in his iconic striped shirt, smoothly ferries you along the canal. Admire the evening light on the water, the soft colours of the old buildings, the majestic palaces and the elegant bridges.
This tour operates during summer. If you are travelling during the winter, we have an alternative version that operates during the daytime. Please check USEFUL DOWNLOADS.
