Venice at sunset Private tour
In the evening the city is finally for us. The hasty tourists who decide to visit it, for a few hours, are gone .. and we can finally discover it by mixing with the Venetians they love before going home to take a spritz with their friends .. so let's start with a spritz, maybe in a place where I can amaze you, a place you would never have found without me. Then we will continue with our walk. Visiting Venice means dedicating days to deepening its traditions and its culture; in reality it would take weeks to fully enjoy its atmosphere,. In the Dorsoduro district, one of the most fascinating districts in the city, full of beauty and opportunities; we can immerse ourselves in this atmosphere. Dorsoduro, once stood in a not very marshy area and therefore considered much more stable than the others. Come on, I hope I can make you feel real Venetians.

DorsoduroPass-by Only
Dorsoduro Venice has a special face for each of its districts. Dorsoduro derives its name from the conditions of the land on which it stands. It is the southernmost district of Venice and goes from Punta della Dogana almost to Piazzale Roma. However, Dorsoduro also extends beyond the Giudecca Canal including the island of Giudecca itself: the largest Venetian island that over the centuries changed its identity several times, passing from place of noble residences, monasteries and green gardens to, after the fall of the Serenissima, territory for barracks, prisons and workers' suburbs. Giudecca is known today for the temple of the Redeemer, a masterpiece of Palladio. United in San Marco since the 19th century through the Accademia Bridge, the Dorsoduro district is one of the best walks into the riches of the city, be it history, culture, art or everyday life: among popular environments, cackling hangouts for university students and silent luxury residential neighborhoods. The luxurious area extends to the east and is characterized by wonderful views of the lagoon, both near Campo della Salute and the Zattere quay, the so-called 'walk of the Venetians'.
Ponte dell'AccademiaPass-by Only
The Ponte dell'Accademia is one of only four bridges to span the Grand Canal in Venice, Italy. It crosses near the southern end of the canal, and is named for the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia, which from 1807 to 2004 was housed in the Scuola della Carità together with the Gallerie dell'Accademia, which is still there. The bridge links the sestieri of Dorsoduro and San Marco A bridge on the site was first suggested as early as 1488. The provveditore Luca Trum proposed in the Council to build two bridges across the Grand Canal, one here and the other at Santa Sofia. The members of the Council, however, laughed at him, and the motion was not even put to the vote. The original steel structure, designed by Alfred Neville, opened on 20 November 1854, but was demolished and replaced by a wooden bridge designed by Eugenio Miozzi and opened in 1933, despite widespread hopes for a stone bridge.] Lovers have attempted to attach padlocks ("love locks") to the metal hand rails of the bridge, but Venetian authorities have successfully cracked down on this
Squero di San Trovaso
The Squero di San Trovaso is one of the last shipyards in the city where wooden boats are built and repaired, in particular the Gondola. The squero of San Trovaso is in a particularly happy position to be observed, photographed, painted, as the foundation of the Rio di San Trovaso lends itself to being a natural audience for a space that seems to have stopped over time.
