Description
Join our Hidden Venice tour to venture off the beaten path! Let’s get away from the crowd
to discover picturesque corners, gems and treasures getting also an interesting insight into
Venice past and present life (high tides and floods, how the city was built, food and drink
culture, Venetian buildings, Carnival masks are just few of the topics covered).
While the many secrets, stories and curiosities which are behind this lesser known part of
Venice are unveiled, you’ll breathe the atmosphere of the authentic local life walking along
the peaceful alleys of Cannaregio, one of the most charming areas of Venice.
From Campo Santa Fosca to Campo del Gheto Novo the tour enters a hidden part of Venice
allowing you to discover some beautiful gems and treasures (such as the statues of Rioba
and the Moors and the breathtaking Church of Madonna dell’Orto) along with an amazing
view over the northern lagoon. The tour then passes through the two main areas of the
Jewish Ghetto with its typical “skyscrapers” and synagogues ending in the Campo del Gheto
Novo.
This tour covers the central and western areas of Cannaregio district, northern Venice.
At the end of the tour many insider tips to make your trip easy and enjoyable are waiting for you!
