Description
  • Traveling by luxury boat, tour the beautiful Grand Canal as an expert guide points out key sights and gives you a history of the city. Disembark at rarely visited San Giorgio Maggiore Island for a guided tour and a visit inside the church. Then, climb the bell tower for one of the best views of Venice.
  • You may have already taken a slow and leisurely gondola ride, but to truly travel the Venetian waters as the locals do, you really need to be in a luxury speedboat to get a real sense of the city. With the help of your expert, local guide, you can spot all the most important sights as you pass them—palaces, theaters, casinos, galleries, and bridges. Personal headsets make it easy to hear your guide's informative commentary over the daily hustle and bustle of the canal.
  • Travel a little beyond the usual sights, with a stop to San Giorgio Maggiore Island. Seldom visited by tourists, it's a lovely spot with a historic church and striking bell tower. Most important though, are the views. Journey to the top by elevator, and gaze out over the spectacular panoramas across the lagoon and back toward St. Mark’s Square and basilica.

  • See the sights of the surreal canal city in style with a luxury motorboat tour of the Grand Canal.

Arrive at the Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore to climb up into the bell tower for exceptional views over the city. Small-group tour size limited to four people.
  • Venice was never meant to be walked, it was meant to be rowed and sailed. On this Venice Boat Tour, we do one better by providing you with your own private motorboat, including a driver and guide, so you can see the city from the water.
  • Like VIPs of old, you'll cruise down the Grand Canal and take in the most beautiful palaces, like the Cà d’Oro and Cà Pesaro, and the most historic sights like the Rialto Bridge, Rialto Fish Market, St. Mark's Basilica, the Doge's Palace, and the Accademia Gallery and bridge. As you pass each one, your guide will tell you how they fit into the singular history of this unique city. Through their stories, you'll feel like you are stepping back in time to the age when Venice's maritime empire stretched across the Mediterranean. 
  • You'll also go off the well-rowed path and explore the city’s prettiest inner canals, to get a sense of the everyday life hidden behind all this medieval splendor.
  • Your Venice Boat Tour finishes up in an equally spectacular spot, the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, home to one of the city's most fabulous hidden gems. You'll follow your guide inside the island's abbey for a full tour of its art and architecture, then you'll be given a ticket (optional) to walk up to the bell tower. We recommend that you do; the view from the top is the very best in Venice. As you look out over the city, your guide will point out sites of interest and you will get a deep understanding for just how unique this place really is. Finally, head back to the Doge's Palace where we'll let you off near where you got on. 
  • This is - hands down - the best way to experience Venice. Gondolas might be more traditional, but for long trips they are expensive and don't offer anywhere near the comfort of our private boat. With your expert guide and dedicated driver you'll be able to sit back, relax and take in the beauty of Venice like a local.

Short Description
  • Venice was never meant to be walked, it was meant to be rowed and sailed. On this Venice Boat Tour, we do one better by providing you with your own private motorboat, including a driver and guide, so you can see the city from the water.
  • Like VIPs of old, you'll cruise down the Grand Canal and take in the most beautiful palaces, like the Cà d’Oro and Cà Pesaro, and the most historic sights like the Rialto Bridge, Rialto Fish Market, St. Mark's Basilica, the Doge's Palace, and the Accademia Gallery and bridge. As you pass each one, your guide will tell you how they fit into the singular history of this unique city. Through their stories, you'll feel like you are stepping back in time to the age when Venice's maritime empire stretched across the Mediterranean. 
  • You'll also go off the well-rowed path and explore the city’s prettiest inner canals, to get a sense of the everyday life hidden behind all this medieval splendor.
  • Your Venice Boat Tour finishes up in an equally spectacular spot, the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, home to one of the city's most fabulous hidden gems. You'll follow your guide inside the island's abbey for a full tour of its art and architecture, then you'll be given a ticket (optional) to walk up to the bell tower. We recommend that you do; the view from the top is the very best in Venice. As you look out over the city, your guide will point out sites of interest and you will get a deep understanding for just how unique this place really is. Finally, head back to the Doge's Palace where we'll let you off near where you got on. 
  • This is - hands down - the best way to experience Venice. Gondolas might be more traditional, but for long trips they are expensive and don't offer anywhere near the comfort of our private boat. With your expert guide and dedicated driver you'll be able to sit back, relax and take in the beauty of Venice like a local. 
  • Any local will tell you that Venice needs to be seen from the water, but if you’re planning on floating down the Grand Canal, gondolas simply aren’t powerful enough. That’s why on board to tell you the history and stories that bring the city to life around you. 
  • We’ll cruise past all of Venice’s most jaw-dropping basilicas, palaces, and bridges; including St. Mark’s Square, the Doge’s Palace, the Bridge of Sighs, the Cemetery of San Michele, the Rialto Bridge, the Rialto Fish Market, the Accademia Bridge, the Cà d’Oro and Cà Pesaro palaces, the Madonna dell’ Orto Church, and the Salute Church. As we pass each one your guide will share the stories that have shaped the unique maritime history of this amazing city.
  • Next we’ll turn off the beaten path to stop at one of Venice’s rarely-visited gems, the island and Basilica of San Giorgio Maggiore, where postcard pictures of Venice are taken across the water towards St. Mark’s Square. After seeing the inside of the stunning Basilica you will have the option to climb the bell tower (or take the elevator) with an all-inclusive ticket. From the top of the tower you can admire the dome of St. Mark’s Basilica and soak in an incredible vista of the city stretching away from you.
  • This tour is all about seeing Venice the way the locals do: From water-level, and in stylish luxury. With a small group of 9 people or fewer and headsets to hear your guide no matter where you are on the boat, taking in the world’s most unique city has never been easier or more relaxing.
