Musement is dedicated to bringing you the best, which is why we're introducing you to the TUI Collection designed by TUI, the world leader in travel.
Step aboard your private gondola and glide through the canals of Venice. Whether you want to meander through hidden corners or pass beneath famous bridges and landmarks, this tour offers something for everyone. Fabio, one of the gondoliers, explains: "Being a gondolier is so much more than operating a gondola. Over 400 hours go into earning a gondolier license. We learn the ins and outs of the canals, Venetian art, and history, and our language skills must be top of the class. You're really in the safest hands."
This tour focuses on the San Paolo district, offering a more intimate view of Venice. Discover hidden gems such as the Carmelitani Church and the Venetian Baroque architecture of Palazzo Zenobio. "Canal-facing facades are a unique feature of Venetian buildings from before streets existed. The canals were the original streets, and facades were a way to show style and wealth. You'll see some real showstoppers," says Fabio.
Your gondolier can provide commentary and answer any questions you might have about the city, or you can take in the sights and soak up the atmosphere on this relaxing ride.
Fondamenta Cossetti, 458-458a, 30100 Venice, Venezia Metropolitan City of Venice, Italy
