Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the grandeur of St. Mark’s Square and the iconic silhouette of the Rialto Bridge? While the world flocks to see Venice’s famous landmarks, a different city hums with life just a few steps away—a city of whispers, legends, and quiet beauty. This is the secret Venice, and we invite you to uncover its soul with us.
Discover hidden Venice with a local guide
This unusual tour is designed to reveal a side of the city not everyone gets to see. Forget the crowded thoroughfares; we will venture into a mesmerizing labyrinth of ‘calli’ and ‘campielli’—the small alleyways and squares where the city’s true heartbeat can be felt. This is the hidden Venice, where laundry flutters between ancient buildings, artisans craft masterpieces in tiny workshops, and the authentic side of the city reveals its hidden gems. We will lose the map to find ourselves in a place where time seems to stand still, allowing you to have a real Venetian experience and understand the very essence of this floating marvel.
Let Venice surprise you
Exploring the secret Venice offers a profound connection to the city’s authentic culture. If this taste of local life leaves you hungry for more, you can continue your culinary adventure on our Cicheti & Wine tour, sampling traditional Venetian snacks and local wines. And for those who, after seeing the hidden side, wish to marvel at the city’s magnificent public face, our tour of The Jewels of Venice will perfectly complement your experience by showcasing its most celebrated masterpieces.
Explore the true soul of the City
Our journey into the heart of Venetian secrets will lead us to some of the city’s most unique and treasured locations. We will stand before the former home of the legendary explorer Marco Polo, imagining the tales of distant lands that once echoed within its walls. We will then step into the whimsical world of the ‘Acqua Alta’ bookshop, a one-of-a-kind library where books are ingeniously saved from the rising tides in bathtubs and gondolas. To truly awaken your senses, we will wander through the vibrant Rialto market, a feast of brilliant colours and intoxicating perfumes that has been the commercial heart of Venice for centuries.
