Highlights

This experience is not just a tour — it’s a deep, local dive into the real Venice. I’m a musician and tour leader, and for years I’ve been guiding small groups through the city I deeply love. With me, you’ll go beyond the tourist routes: we’ll explore quiet canals, hear curious stories and traditions, and enjoy local food like cicchetti and spritz in authentic bàcari. I combine historical insight with personal anecdotes and secret spots only locals know. My goal is to make you feel the true Venetian soul — not just see it. Whether it’s your first time here or your tenth, you’ll leave with new eyes (and probably a few new favorite places) Subject to availability | for Making your experience even more special: upon request, you can attend an intimate classical music concert in one of the most beautiful palaces in Venice ✨

About Venice

Venice floats on a lagoon of more than a hundred islands, a city of canals, palaces and bridges with no cars, where every walk ends somewhere unexpected.

The Grand Canal sweeps through the city in a great reversed S, lined with palaces and crossed by the Rialto Bridge. Near its mouth, Piazza San Marco gathers St Mark's Basilica with its golden mosaics, the Doge's Palace, the Bridge of Sighs and the tall brick campanile. Water buses and gondolas show the city from the angle it was built to be seen.

Top-ranked sights in Venice: St. Mark's Square (Piazza San Marco), St. Mark's Basilica (Basilica di San Marco), Grand Canal.
