Venice Free Tour
Venice Free Tour
The tour group will meet right in the centre of Venice to begin this free tour of Venice and its canals. Ready to go? Come on!
During the tour, we'll delve into the history of this beautiful city, which is known by many as the Queen of the Adriatic. We'll stroll through the streets, admire its canals, and look up at the façades of its most symbolic buildings, among which the famous Teatro La Fenice will feature. Did you know that it's one of the oldest opera houses in the world?
We'll make our way towards the world-famous St Mark's Square. Here, we'll pay close attention to the architectural details of St Mark's Basilica, which dates back to the 12th century. We'll see the bell tower, which is 323 feet high (almost 100 metres), and discuss the different uses of the Doge's Palace, as well as Venice's doges.
We'll also stroll along Venice's Grand Canal and admire the palaces and churches that line its banks, including the majestic baroque Basilica of Santa María della Salute.
After 2 hours of walking, we'll finish our tour. Naturally, if you're interested, we'll give you some top tips for restaurants and other must-see spots for the rest of your time in the city.
