What makes this tour special

Enjoy exploring a lesser-known side of Venice as you venture through its myths and mysteries on this private evening walking tour.

On your private 2-hour tour, you will:


This tour takes you off the beaten path, into the shadier stories of the city's legendary past, even as you explore several of the city’s highlights, like the Campo San Polo, Rialto Bridge, St Mark’s Square, and the Grand Canal, along with other spots off-the-beaten-track, including the Venetian red light district. 

Along your tour, you will uncover answers to questions like: where did the "hangman" live? Who was the "Biasio" of Venice? Who was "Casanova"? Where are the ghosts' palaces, and who was the "Doctor of the Plague"? On your night out, your guide will be sure that you do not find yourself lost in the hidden mazes of the city.

Though we can't give away many details regarding this mysterious tour, we can say with certainty that it is riddled with excitement and intrigue, and is a great way to explore the city outside the heat of the day with a private guide! 

Please note: this tour can be amended in advance to be friendly for children. Please notify us in advance of the tour if you wish for the stories to be told in a kid-friendly way!

Campo Santi Giovanni e Paolo
