See some of the pretty small canals that connect to the main waterway of Venice, and marvel at a mix of Byzantine and Rococo architecture.

This private tour starts from Dogana Gondola Station, which is located on the Grand Canal just a few steps away from St Mark’s Square and in front of Harry’s Bar. While on board the gondola, relax with a bottle of Prosecco. You'll cruise along the Grand Canal. From here, you can admire the massive Church of Santa Maria della Salute and the Guggenheim Museum. The tour continues along smaller canals passing by the Fenice Opera House, the magnificent church of S. Moisè and the Gothic-style palace that houses the Hotel Bauer. Choose from either a 30- or 60-minute gondola ride. The tour will end at the same departure point where it departed.

The best way to know and experience Venice is certainly by getting on a private boat and travelling around the Grand Canal defined as “the most beautiful avenue in the world." The crew lead you through the most beautiful parts of the city and recall the legends, history, monuments, architectural masterpieces, art and who created or enjoyed it: the artists, noblemen, courtesans and other inhabitants of the lagoon. To get a better insight into Venetian culture, you'll be invited to visit Murano island  known for its glass production.  It's well worth-seeing the mastery of blowing and shaping the glass that has a long history, like the city itself. Finally, through some smaller and secret channel pathways, you'll see the most popular and lively neighborhoods and reach the pinnacle of the tour - San Marco’s Square.

The gaze sweeps over the colourful facades whose feet disappear in the green depths of the canals. The water flows gently along the canals under the bridges, where the sun rays make the stone arches sparkle like diamonds. One of the luxurious taxi boats that usually accompany Hollywood movie stars around the city during the Venice film festival, will take you along a discovery journey "the traditional way" (from the water). You will discover the most beautiful part of the Grand Canal and the narrow side canals, whose facades are usually hidden from the visitors view during this 1-hour cruise. A licensed guide will introduce you to the history of the city during your drive and fascinate you with curious anecdotes while you sip your aperitivo.
