Details

Board a modern electric boat at Fondamenta Ognisanti and embark on a 90-minute journey through Venice’s iconic waterways. The silent, eco-friendly vessel offers a smooth ride past the Grand Canal, winding through quieter back-channels and out onto the lagoon.

During the cruise, enjoy bottled water and light snacks as your local guide identifies major landmarks and shares stories of Venetian history, architecture, and daily life. Sight-seeing reaches new depth as you glance at palaces, bridges and hidden corners from the water.

This tour is a comfortable and stylish alternative to a gondola — small groups, fewer crowds, and a unique way to experience Venice from the water without walking. Perfect for visitors looking to relax while still seeing the city’s beauty.

It was amazing!!! Our guide told us so many things about Venice. It was like a college course. The city is so beautiful and to have a detailed history of the place was hear-melting. If I could tell everyone who visits Venice to take this tour I would.

Great tour. Highly recommend . It was informal, informative , and relaxed. We got a near complete view of the islands, hearing tidbits of interesting facts, and our guide taking time to allow us to get photos and ask questions. Great for kids and family
