What we will do
The appointment is at the indicated time at the meeting point in Venice. Your skipper will be waiting for you, ready to accompany you on this exclusive tour.
You will board the boat and begin your navigation towards St Mark's Square, the heart of Venice, which you can admire directly from the water for an unusual perspective.
You will continue on to the Sestiere Castello, the city's largest, in the eastern part of the lagoon. This is home to the largeArsenale complex, but also to houses and canals that are still authentic and lived in by Venetians.
You will then walk along the quiet canals behind Giudecca, famous for its Renaissance churches and spectacular views of St Mark's Basin. From here the panorama will be wide and scenic, perfect for taking sunset photos.
You will then reach Venice Lido and the smaller islands opposite: San Servolo, an ancient monastic site;Rose Island and San Clemente, now home to luxury resorts; and theIsland of the Armenians, for centuries one of the most important centres of Armenian culture.
You will then return to your starting point. The activity will last a total of 2 hours.
