Venice Walking Tours

Venice Italy is best discovered by gondola or on foot. When you go for a walking tour of Venice, it’s best if you get a guide with you especially if you can’t stay long in the city. You want to maximize your experience in Venice and a guide can help you do this. Although it’s perfectly okay to explore this city alone or with friends if you have plenty of time to kill while in Venice.

Venice walking tours include, of course, a stroll along the famous canals of Venice and crossing several historic bridges Venice has to offer. Explore the many lagoons and islands that there is in Venice and ride the romantic gondola while you’re their. No visit in Venice could ever be complete if you don’t try the gondolas.

The next in your itinerary should be to pass by the Basilica di San Marco. This famous basilica was originally built for the rulers of Venice or the doge and not for the Vatican. It was only in 1807 that it became a cathedral. It houses the bones of St. Mark, thus the name Basilica di San Marco.

Venice walking tours also include a chance for you to see the craftsmanship of the Venetians through their glass art. Many walking tours include visiting the craftsmen’s shop that allows tourist to have a go at glass blowing. Of course you can take home your masterpiece for a price but the experience that you’ve had getting personal coaching from the artists themselves is priceless.

And then there’s the Venetian market to buy all sorts of stuff and maybe even souvenirs for the trip. Learn how to haggle with the local vendors and listen to authentic Italian banters while you’re there. The Venetian market in Rialto is the most famous flea market where you can buy fresh produce from Venice and sample their local cuisine.

A Venice walking tour is one of the most romantic tours you can take. You can’t find the experience anywhere around the world so don’t miss a chance to embark on one at least once in your lifetime.
