About This Tour in Padua

We will take you through the narrow and quiet Venetian streets between the Cannaregio district and the Ancient Jewish Ghetto, the wonderful antiques shop windows and traditional Jewish shops. We will be able to stop and drink an excellent espresso in the small coffee shop in the city that has been using the same recipe for almost a century. We can then head towards the beating heart of Venice in the San Polo and San Marco districts. We will not fail to cross the Rialto Bridge and take a tour of the Rialto Market. We will visit a "hidden place" from which to appreciate a completely exclusive view of the Grand Canal. For lunch, an ancient bacaro hides among the narrow and intricate calli of Venice where you can enjoy excellent traditional Venetian cicchetti or we recommend an alternative. We will reach Piazza San Marco, surrounded by its main buildings and we will arrive at the Bridge of Sighs. Afterwards, we will take the ferry boat to reach the rail station.

Tour Itinerary

Walk through the Jewish Ghetto of Venice 10 minutes

Walk through the Jewish Ghetto of Venice.

In Cannaregio we find the Venice Santa Lucia... 30 minutes

In Cannaregio we find the Venice Santa Lucia station and the main street, called Strada Nova, which connects the station to the Rialto area. There is also the Jewish Ghetto, an area where the Jewish community was obliged to live in the Napoleonic era. The main shopping streets are Strada Nova and Lista di Spagna, but also frequented by young people for bars or as meeting places. Do not miss the area of clubs and restaurants in Cannaregio which is located in the northern part of the sestiere, more precisely between the Jewish Ghetto and the Fondamenta Nuove. To date, the sestiere fully represents one of the places of entertainment in Venice.

The San Polo district is the smallest of... 30 minutes

The San Polo district is the smallest of the six in Venice and is much loved for the relaxed atmosphere that can be felt walking around its narrow streets; at one time, however, it was one with the Sestiere of Santa Croce. It is a very characteristic district given the rich presence of "houses and shops", or places where people live and carry out their work, as well as the variety of typical Venetian taverns that take the name of "bacari". Its name derives from the presence of Campo San Polo, the largest square after that of San Marco, and of the homonymous church in the district. Although it has always been considered a people's square, as events and public celebrations took place here, this square is surrounded by stately palaces.

he called it "the most beautiful salon in Europe". It was built in the 9th century and paved in 1177, 100 years after its construction. Piazza San Marco is the lowest area of Venice and, therefore, is the first area to be flooded with high water. The most important buildings in the square are the Basilica of San Marco, the Doge's Palace, the Correr Museum, the Campanile and the Clock Tower.

The Rialto Bridge is the oldest of the four bridges on the Grand Canal 30 minutes

The Rialto Bridge is the oldest of the four bridges on the Grand Canal. It is famous for both its architecture and its history. For years it was the hub of the economy of Venice. The Rialto Bridge was built between 1588 and 1591, based on a project by the architect Antonio da Ponte, to replace the previous wooden structure, which collapsed twice and burned on various occasions. The structure of the bridge is similar to the previous ones and consists of two inclined ramps joined by a portico in the center.
