2. 2

   Palazzo Ducale

   45min

   As you float through the city's dreamy canals and under charming bridges on a gondola ride, make sure you have your camera at the ready. Pass by the 15th-century San Rocco school and church, and stop at San Polo Square, where Venetians used to organize bullfights for Carneval.

   Mercati di Rialto

   45min

   Next, make your way to the lively Rialto market where locals go for fresh fish and produce, admiring the grand Rialto Bridge as you approach it by boat. You’ll have the opportunity to buy a snack or drink at the market, browse the local delicacies, and go souvenir shopping.

4. 4

   Piazza San Marco

   45min

   The final stop will be at Piazza San Marco. Your guide will point out the mosaics adorning St Mark's Basilica, its clock tower and the Campanile.

   Basilica di San Marco

   45min

   Admire views of Doge’s Palace, which for over 1000 years served as the government administration center for the region. You’ll end your tour with a relaxing gondola ride (if this option was selected). Please note that the guide will not accompany you during this part of the experience. Once your gondola ride is finished, you’ll have to make your way back to your hotel or your next destination independently.
