inspired poets and writers
over the centuries.
In picturesque Bassano

celebrated works with fine
frescoes by Veronese. The
price of the tour includes
entrance fees and a guided
tour of the Villa Barbaro

Veneto

regional cuisine accompanied
by local wines. Lunch is
optional, but we strongly
recommend taking lunch at
the quaint little trattoria
we visit that offers great
value for money, with a
great selection of dishes at
reasonable prices.
Medieval Marostica, with its
imposing castle and giant
chess-board permanently
laid-out in the town square,
is where the famous living
game of chess is played
every two years. The game
revolves around a legend
dating form the 15th century
when the fate of one young
lady was decided on the
outcome of a game of chess.
While at Marostica we'll aso
enjoy a walking tour of the
back-streets of this
charming town.
Saving
the best to last, we finish
our day on the Prosecco wine
road visiting a local
vineyard with stunning views
of the terraced slopes
thickly planted with vines,
where we’ll celebrate our
day in the Veneto with a
refreshing glass of Prosecco
or two. The rolling hills of
the Prosecco wine region are
quite breath-taking and as
you enjoy the wines of one
of the most noted producers
of Prosecco you'll be

and the distant plains of
the Veneto. |

VENICE GHOST WALKING TOUR
Venice by night
is a place of romance and
mystery. This Ghost walking
tour of Venice features an
itinerary that will take you
on a journey through the
hidden Venice where you will
not only hear six intriguing
ghost stories that will
bring a chill to the night's
air, but you'll also be
entertained by legends of
sea monsters and the
Venetians themselves that
will include the legend of
Marco Polo's wife.
In addition to the ghost
stories and legends this
walking tour includes an
itinerary that will pass-by
many architectural treasures
that are hidden away in the
back-streets of the Hidden
Venice. Your adventure will
start at the Rialto
bridge, from where you'll
descend into the labyrinth
of the hidden Venice,
crossing sleeping canals and
abandoned camp, it will
feel as if you have Venice
to yourself as the only
sounds you'll hear will be
the echoes of distant
footsteps.
In
between the Ghost Stories,
you'll hear other gruesome
tales from Venice's past
including stories about an
old prison where the poor
in-mates lived in
rat-infested cells that
flooded during high tide.
We'll take a stroll along
the narrow alleyway called
the street of the Assassins
to recount the murders that
have taken place there, as
well as exploring an old
camp that use to home to
one of the numerous
cemeteries in Venice. You'll
also explore a secret
passageway, one of the few
surviving that were used by
the inhabitants of palaces
to flee from the authorities
(subject to water-levels).
This
walking tour will also
include architectural gems
and follies lost in the
back-streets of Venice that
will include the delightful
Bovolo staircase built for a
wealthy Venetian at a time
when many Venetians still
traveled around the city on
horse-back. The elaborate
staircase enabled the
wealthy nobleman to ride his
horse up to his private
apartments within his
palace.
Following a winding route
through the labyrinth of
back-streets you'll enjoy a
very intimate experience of
the Hidden Venice on this
walking tour. An enchanting

CANNAREGIO AND JEWISH GHETTO WALKING TOUR
Tour
features: Guided tour of the
Jewish Ghetto, Madonna
dell'Orto Church, Scuola
della Misericordia, Palace
of the Camels, Views of the
northern lagoon, and the
charming residential area of
Cannaregio.
On the Cannaregio &
Jewish Ghetto Walking Tour
discover the lively and
vibrant atmosphere of the
most residential part of the
city, where the few
Venetians left in town still
live!
Enjoy a pleasant stroll
off-the-beaten track through
the non-tourist district of
Cannaregio. You'll quickly
discover that literally the
whole of Venice is one giant
open-air museum as you
encounter imposing Palaces,
important churches,
enchanting canals and
bridges as you make your way
through a labyrinth of
narrow streets and alleyways
to the Jewish Ghetto that
lies in the heart of the
Cannaregio district of
Venice.
The walking tour through
the Cannaregio district
includes many detours to
encounter homes of famous
Venetians like Tintoretto &
Titian, delightful anecdotes
& stories of past residents
of this picturesque area of
Venice, along with sweeping
views of the northern lagoon
where we'll be able to
discuss the vital role that
the Lagoon played in the
history of a city built from
fear.
After a fascinating
walking tour through the
Cannaregio district, we'll
spend the second part of the
tour exploring the famous
"Jewish Ghetto". A city
within a city, and you'll
learn how the Jewish
community lived here over
the centuries. And what
role they played in the
history of Venice.
Entrances to the
Jewish museum and synagogues
are not included, as they
are strictly controlled by
the Jewish community (can be
visited after the tour).
This tour finishes in the
Jewish Ghetto, and those
wishing to visit the Jewish
Ghetto can do so at the end
of our tour.
As part of our
Venice in 1 Day package, you
can combine our walking tour
of the Cannaregio & Jewish
Ghetto with our popular
Grand Canal Boat Tour to
enjoy the best value in
tours for the first-time
visitor to Venice
