• Canal Grande - After a 2.5-hour train journey from Florence, the guide will meet the group to commence the tour. The Grand Canal, the largest in Venice, showcases Venetian-Gothic architecture. Venice’s canals, which crisscross the city like streets, are among its most remarkable features. The Grand Canal, the largest, spans four kilometers and divides the city in two.
• Chiesa di San Giorgio dei Greci - The Campanile di San Giorgio dei Greci, known as the ‘leaning clocktower’, was designed by Simone Sorella and completed in 1592. It began tilting early in its construction. Both the bell tower and the adjacent church were built by and for Venice’s Greek community, mainly sailors and merchants. Visitors will also have the opportunity to see the Sanctuary of St. Lucy.
• Strada Nova - This is the widest street in Venice. Created in the 19th century, the route consists of wide streets linked by bridges, providing quick pedestrian access between Rialto and the railway station, replacing a long, winding path through narrow streets.
• Ponte di Rialto - The Rialto Bridge is the oldest of the four bridges crossing the Grand Canal in Venice. It is renowned for its architecture and history, having been the center of Venice’s economy for many years.
• Piazza San Marco - St. Mark’s Square is the main public square in Venice and is considered one of the most captivating squares globally. Napoleon Bonaparte famously called it “the most beautiful hall in Europe.” Nearby is the Patriarchal Cathedral Basilica of Saint Mark, commonly known as St. Mark’s Basilica, the cathedral church of the Patriarchate of Venice. The interior domes, vaults, and upper walls are adorned with gold-ground mosaics depicting saints, prophets, and biblical scenes.
• Ponte dei Sospiri - Known locally as the Bridge of Sighs, this iconic Venetian monument was constructed in the 1600s, linking the Doge’s Palace with the historic prison across the canal. It earned its name because, during the Serenissima, prisoners crossing it sighed at the thought of seeing the outside world for the last time.
• Chiesa di San Zaccaria - The Church of San Zaccaria, a 15th-century former monastic church, is located in central Venice at Campo San Zaccaria. The current church was built between 1458 and 1515, featuring a harmonious blend of late-Gothic and Renaissance styles.
• Ponte dell’Accademia - The Ponte dell’Accademia is one of only four bridges spanning the Grand Canal in Venice. It crosses near the canal’s southern end and is named after the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia.
• Squero di San Trovaso - The Squero di San Trovaso is one of the oldest and most renowned Venetian squeros. This traditional shipyard is where small boats like gondolas are repaired. Visitors can observe the craftsmanship involved in making or repairing a gondola.
• Campo San Pantalon - Visit the picturesque Campo San Pantalon to admire the stunning painting by Banksy, often referred to as “the shipwrecked/migrant child.”
• Campo Santa Margherita - Campo Santa Margherita is a city square in the Dorsoduro district of Venice. It is situated near university buildings and serves as a popular gathering spot for students at the end of the day.
• Piazzale Roma - Piazzale Roma is a square at the city’s entrance, located at the end of the Ponte della Libertà. Piazzale Roma and the nearby Tronchetto island are the only areas in Venice’s insular urban core accessible to ground motor vehicles, such as cars and buses.
