Recently I had the pleasure of being escorted on a private tour of the most enchanting and lesser known canals in Venice, both on foot and in my private gondola with one of our licensed guides and a professional photographer. I am always in search of the most unique experiences to offer my clients and this private sightseeing tour is definitely a must experience.
The tour starts with your private guide and photographer meeting you at your hotel reception or at a convenient preferred location, you will then be guided around some of the prettiest back canal’s in Venice to explore the real Venice on foot, away from the crowds and through many delightful little piazzas in areas where local Venetians live, avoiding the large crowds that surround the famous and overcrowded San Marco and Rialto.
Just when the time was right and my feet were beginning to feel a little weary I was taken to meet our private gondolier and the 4 of us set sail on a romantic passage through the cities majestic waterways.
Being a gondolier is more difficult than ever imaginable, with only approximately 450 gondoliers working in Venice today, managing the crowds and manoeuvring these ancient and magnificent boats can be a physically tiring job that can certainly work up a sweat, especially in the heat of an Italian summer.
Our Private Guided Gondola & Photographic Tour of Venice will definitely leave you wanting more. Together with your personal guide and photographer you will not only capture & preserve these once in a lifetime memories, you will admire some of Venice’s most aristocratic palaces and will become immersed in the artistic and historical heritage that has made Venice what it is today.
Your photos taken from the day will be put in a beautiful digital photo book for you to keep as a unique souvenir of your time in Venice that you can show to your friends and family back home.
This private tour includes a licensed guide, 30 minute private gondola ride, professional photographer services for the duration of the tour and your photos supplied to keep for a lifetime.
