DESCRIPTION
Itinerary
Our representative meets you at the Venice cruise terminal and then leads you to your private water taxi waiting nearby. Once in Venice city center, you will enjoy a two hour walking tour to include St. Marks Square and Basilica, the Doge's Palace, the Bridge of Sighs and the Prisons.
St Mark's Square is the heart of the city and symbol of Venice. It is enriched by the presence of the famous bell tower, small shops and elegant cafes. It is dominated by St. Mark's Basilica, which was originally built in 829 AD.
The Doge's Palace was once the home of the Doges (Dukes), who were officials that were elected for life.
The Bridge of Sighs was built in 1614 to link the Doge's Palace to the structure intended to house the Prison.
The famous name of the bridge dates from the Romantic period and was supposed to refer to the sighs of prisoners who, passing from the courtroom to the cell in which they would serve their sentence, took a last look at freedom.
After your walking tour, you have free time for lunch, explore the area around the Rialto Bridge, have a romantic gondola ride, or assist a glass blowing demonstration, before being brought back to your ship.
