Full description
The tour starts at the Church of San Giacomo di Rialto, according to legend the oldest church of the city and closely linked to the founding myth of Venice and its trade history. Head to the city's oldest and most important market, the Rialto Market: It supplies fresh ingredients not only to residents but also to the local bacari (bars) and restaurants. Here at the market you will discover numerous fresh products that you will taste during a culinary break with a high quality cicheto (typical Venetian snack) and a glass of wine. Continue along the hidden streets past the most crooked door in the city uncovering how the city on the water was built. Walk to the Church of Sant'Aponal in the immediate vicinity of the place where none other than Pope Alexander III is said to have spent a night like an ordinary beggar during his escape from the German emperor Barbarossa and hear how this pope is linked to the Church of San Silvestro, where the Wine Merchants' Guild was based. (It is not without reason that the adjacent bank along the Canal Grande is called "Riva del Vin", the "wine bank"!). At the end of the tour you will discover through symbols, frescoes and street signs the place where luxury goods such as silk and gold were traded. The journey through time concludes with a breathtaking view over the well-known Rialto Bridge and the Fontego dei Tedeschi, the former warehouse of the German-speaking merchants. The tour ends again at the Church of San Giacomo di Rialto. This tour is accessible as there are no bridges to cross during the route. Please note that there is only room for 1 wheelchair in the premises during the tasting. Please use line 1 to the “Rialto Mercato” stop to get to the meeting point.

Absolut empfehlenswert. Beatrice ist eine tolle Reiseführerin. Man sieht und lernt auf dieser kleinen Tour sehr viel über die Geschichte von Venedig bzw. rund um die Rialtobrücke. Wir waren schon sehr oft in Venedig, haben aber dennoch vieles neues Erfahren. Uns hat es sehr viel Spaß gemacht. Zudem hatte Beatrice auch einige Untensilien dabei, um uns anhand von Proben oder Zeichungen geschichtlichtes näher zubringen. Da merkt man einfach wieviel Herzblut Sie in diese Führung steckt und wie Ihr Venedig am Herzen liegt. Auch Ihre Instaseite ist sehr interessant(unfoldvenice) . Einfach TOP !
