Description:
Stroll over bridges and down cobbled alleys as you meander through the streets of Venice with an experienced guide. Sip espresso, admire centuries-old architecture, gaze at the home of a famous explorer, and learn about the history of this intriguing island city over the course of an afternoon.
Embark from the Campo San Bartolomeo, heading past colorful market stalls packed with local produce and aromatic spices on your way to the Corte del Milion. When you arrive, gaze at the famous edifice where Marco Polo once lived and listen to tales about his fascinating journeys around the world.
Continue on to the neighborhood of Cannaregio, pausing to snap photos of the statues atop the Church of the Abbey of Misercordia, built in the 10th century. Nearby, wander past the Palazzo Mastelli—looking for the relief of a merchant with his camel—to reach the Old Ghetto and hear about the Jewish community that has maintained a presence in Venice for over 500 years.
Wrap up your excursion with a stop in one of the city’s iconic coffee roasting houses, where you can grab an espresso, take a break at a street-side table, and do a bit of people watching before you head back to your starting point.
