Private Venice of the Venetians Tour with Pickup
My tour is a private tour. This means that we are a small group where everyone knows each other. We visit places in Venice that show the life of the Venetians. Of course, I will also show you well-known sights that you should have seen in Venice. You set the pace and what interests you. Since I live in Venice myself, I will report and show you how life in Venice works. You will get to know places that are not overcrowded by crowds. I will introduce you to the Venetian way of life and tell you how the Venetians think.

(Subject to Option Inclusions)Itinerary
Venice
You book an individual tour through Venice with me. You can express your wishes at any time. Changes are also possible during the tour.
Piazza San Marco
This is usually the starting point if you do not want to be picked up from another meeting point. We then move right away from the tourist hustle and bustle and delve into the hidden and quiet corners of Venice.
T Fondaco Dei Tedeschi
As a highlight of my tours, I often start or end here by taking my guests to a rooftop terrace by the Rialto Bridge. If you stand on the Rialto Bridge you have a wonderful view of the Canal Grande and can watch the hustle and bustle. There is always a lot of traffic to be seen, the public water buses (vaporetti), taxi boats, gondolas, delivery boats, police and fire brigade, also private boats. During events, e.g. the Regatta Storica, you can see the decorated boats and rowers here. Many rowing competitions, etc. take place on the Grand Canal. Crossing the Rialto Bridge one enters the area where Venice was born. This is where the first traders who sold fabrics, spices, etc. came to be found.
