Want to explore Venice off the beaten track without getting lost? From the old red-light district to some of the oldest houses in Venice, this walking tour shows you Venice at its rich and stimulating best! You'll discover the real Venice, past and present, and take a guided visit of the Frari church and its masterpieces by Bellini, Titian and Canova.
Enlightened by stories of Venice's rich merchants and their ruthless acts of cruelty, you'll take a guided walk through the city's labyrinth of streets and narrow passageways in the old artisan quarters. You'll pass old bars where the merchants would relax, and see where the famous Venetian courtesans lived in the old red light district of Venice, home to the notorious Ponte delle Tette bridge.
During this walk, you will also see an old prison for tax evaders and learn about daily life in Venice of old, and what life is like today for modern-day Venetians.
