About this experience

Have you always dreamed of seeing Venice with very few people around? This early morning private walking tour lets you experience the city at its most authentic moment, when the streets are quiet and local life slowly begins. Led by a licensed, English-speaking local guide, you’ll discover Venice’s highlights in a calm atmosphere, passing through the Rialto Market area around 8:00 AM, when vendors and locals bring the city to life. The tour follows the same iconic route as a daytime visit, but without the crowds, ending at the Doge’s Palace. To complete the experience in the most authentic Venetian way, we highly recommend adding a private water taxi from Rialto to St. Mark’s Square. Cruising along the Grand Canal allows you to admire Venice’s historic palaces from the water — the perspective for which the city was designed and one of the most memorable ways to experience Venice. Ideal for photography lovers, early risers, and travelers who want to enjoy Venice at a relaxed pace.
