Overview

Uncover the hidden soul of Venice with this exclusive 3.5-hour private experience, combining a walk through the city’s secret corners with an intimate encounter with the world-famous art of Murano glass.

Explore quiet alleys, charming canals, and historic neighborhoods far from the crowds, discovering a Venice that few visitors ever see.

Following the walking tour, you will board a private water taxi and glide across the lagoon to the island of Murano—renowned worldwide as the birthplace of glassmaking.
