2 hours

Moderate

Welcome to Venice, the highlights and must sees with a guide art historian
Luciaveniceguide@gmail.com contact me for more dates - We will start our two-hour tour from the historic Rialto area, defined by historians as "Europe's Wall Street in the Middle Ages". We will discover the secrets of the Rialto Point of Sale and I will reveal the Venetian point of view on the Rialto Bridge and its spectacular view of the Grand Canal. We will discover why masks and Carnival are so important in Venice and then away from the crowds, we will take a walk to discover the unique layout of the city: bridges, elegant private palaces, narrow alleys, large and small fields (our squares), elaborate stone well heads. Finally we will reach the most beautiful square in the world, Piazza San Marco, to see all the famous architecture (the Doge's Palace, the Sansovino Library, the Bridge of Sighs, the Bell Tower ...).

I will guide you through the millennium of life of the Serenissima Republic. Then, we discover the fascinating past of this unique city and its intriguing present.
