Description:

Discover the unique charm of Venice from the water on this 1-hour cruise along the Grand Canal. Marvel at elegant palaces, historic churches, and picturesque bridges as you glide through the city's charming canals and snap memorable pictures for your album back home.

Following a natural channel that traces a reverse-S shape, the Grand Canal divides Venice in 2 and represents the main waterway of the city. Hop aboard a motorboat and take in the city's breathtaking scenery. Pass by Romanesque-, Gothic-, and Renaissance-style buildings. Admire the ancient Rialto Bridge and see the impressive St. Mark's Square, with its iconic St. Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace.

Your guide shares plenty of interesting stories with you and also points out some of Venice's most famous palaces, including Ca' Balbi, Ca' Foscari, Ca' Rezzonico, Ca' Pisani Moretta, and the 15th-century Ca' d'Oro, which underwent extensive renovation in the 20th century. Its ornate façade is now one of the Grand Canal's most stunning sights.
