Description

An evocative tour to visit the whole city of Venice, corner by corner, on foot or boarding and alighting from public vaporettos to discover our city!

 

Vaporetti (waterbuses) are the characteristic boats used by Venetians to get around on a daily basis. With a day pass, you can hop on and off as many times as you like from the many 'imbarcaderi' (stops) in the city. 

 

One of the best things to do is to take the vaporetto and cross the Grand Canal listening with our audio guide to descriptions of the magnificent palaces (there are more than 200!) that line the most fascinating waterway in the world. 

 

You can comfortably reach every corner of the city and discover with the audio guide historical sites such as the Arsenale, where the mighty Venetian fleet was built, the 500-year-old Ghetto, the first one in the world, some ancient churches decorated with masterpieces by Tintoretto and Titian... and much more... you will find more than 200 points of interest throughout the city. 

 

In addition to Venice's main island, your ticket also allows you to visit the other beautiful islands in the lagoon, such as Murano, Burano and Torcello. Here the audio guide will take you on a discovery of the history and traditions of the islands with itineraries designed by Venetians for you.

 

The digital map will guide you every step of the way, allowing you to reach the place you wish to visit with the audio narration that is activated near the city's panoramic viewpoints. The description text and image of the attraction will appear on your device.

 

Our map will guide you through the calli and canals. You can use it whenever you want, to find your hotel, a restaurant or simply to feel safer in the city, like a real insider. Download the app and discover both the main attractions and the hidden places known only to true Venetians!
