Spend the day in one of the world’s most romantic cities on a full-day tour to Venice from Lake Garda. Transfer across the Veneto by air-conditioned bus, and then hop on a private boat to the heart of the city. Following your pick-up from various points in the Lake Garda region, including Limone, Riva del Garda and Bardolino, transfer to Venice with a short coffee break during the travel to Venice. The estimated time of arrival in Venice is 11:00.
The city of Venice has been for more than a millennium capital of the Republic of Venice and in this regard known as the Serenissima, the dominant and the Queen of the Adriatic. For urban characteristics and for its artistic heritage, Venice is universally considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world and ranks, along with its lagoon, between the Italian UNESCO World Heritage sites.

Upon arrival, hop on a private boat and cross the lagoon to St. Mark's. Take a 40-minute walking tour, with a guide and headphones of St Mark's and see many of the city’s most famous landmarks, such as St. Mark's Basilica, the Bridge of Sights, and the Campanile. Stroll the main streets to the Rialto Bridge and other monuments of “La Serenissima.”
During the afternoon you will have time to walk in the city center or have a gondola ride. The gondola is, without doubt, the symbol of Venice. It is unique because of its special features: 280 parts from 8 different types of wood fit together to create an 11-metre boat weighing more than 600 kg. A single “gondolier” at the stern rows this miracle of nautics that seems to greet its Venice with a nod thanks to its asymmetrical hull.
Get off the beaten path for a more authentic look at everyday life in the city, or just sit back and people watch in one of the many cafés of Piazza San Marco. A boat will be waiting to take you from St. Mark's Square to the transfer bus at approximately 17:45.
