Description
Discover Venice from its most authentic perspective: the water. Step aboard our small boat and enjoy an intimate journey through the Venetian Lagoon, away from the crowds and surrounded by some of its most iconic views.
Your experience begins with a welcome toast on board, as you admire the extraordinary panorama of St. Mark’s Square from the water, with the magnificent island of San Giorgio Maggiore rising just across the basin. A unique viewpoint and the perfect opportunity to capture some unforgettable photos of Venice.
The cruise then continues towards the historic Venetian Arsenal, once the beating heart of the Republic of Venice’s naval power and one of the most fascinating areas of the city. Entering the Arsenal canal by boat offers a truly unique perspective, passing its impressive historic walls and the monumental hands rising from the water, one of the most striking contemporary sights along the route.
Leaving the city behind, we sail deeper into the lagoon, passing Murano, the ancient island known worldwide for its centuries-old glassmaking tradition and the extraordinary craftsmanship of its master glassmakers.
The journey then takes you to Certosa Island, a hidden green gem of the Venetian Lagoon and a place still largely untouched by mass tourism. This peaceful island is a true off-the-beaten-path spot loved by Venetians, offering a glimpse of a quieter and more authentic side of lagoon life. Here, enjoy a relaxing stop for a Venetian aperitivo with a traditional cicchetto, surrounded by the unique atmosphere of the lagoon.
Throughout the cruise, the ever-changing views of Venice, its islands and the open lagoon provide countless opportunities to take beautiful souvenir photos and capture unforgettable memories of your time in Venice.
With a small group, a welcome toast, iconic landmarks, hidden corners and a true Venetian aperitivo, this boat tour is the perfect way to discover the Venice Lagoon from a more intimate, authentic and local perspective.
