Description

No cars, no motorbikes... just legendary tales of love and loss entwining each bridge. Venice is unique in the world: feel its magic with this day trip.

Itinerary

Meet at the indicated time at Viale Papa Giovanni XXIII, boarding the bus that will take you to the romantic city of canals.

The visit begins with a boat tour along the Venice Grand Canal. During the ride, you'll pass beneath the Rialto Bridge, a key route connecting the banks of the canal, leading you to Venice's focal point: St. Mark's Square.

From this point, we’ll begin our walking tour with a two-hour guided exploration of Venice. Our journey starts at the giant bell tower of St. Mark's Basilica, a historic site where Galileo presented his telescope in the 17th century. Next, we’ll visit the arcades of the Doge's Palace, an epitome of Venetian splendor. This stunning building also served as a prison...

Prisoners who were condemned to this fate last glimpsed the sky and sea from a bridge located at the back of the Doge's Palace, known as the 'Bridge of Sighs'. Its name diverges from the romantic notions often attached to it. After this, you'll have free time to dine and explore the surroundings of St. Mark's before regrouping to board the bus.

The tour will conclude as we return to Bergamo 12.5 hours later.
