Step away from the crowds and off the beaten track to explore Venice's less-seen, winding back streets. Past houses where laundry swings out over canals, hear stories of hauntings and interesting characters who called Venice home. Afterward take a gondola ride along the quieter back canals.

Join your guide on a stroll through the quieter streets and piazzas to learn about the hidden secrets of Venice. Hear captivating stories about Ca'Dario, the haunted house with owners who continuously met suspicious deaths, and see where Ernest Hemingway once take a breaked after a day of writing.

Then stop by the home of Peggy Guggenheim, a wealthy art collector who scandalized locals by sunbathing naked, and spot the house where Othello's Desdemona supposedly lived before her tale was transcribed by an Italian author and allegedly stolen by Shakespeare. Finish the experience with a traditional gondola ride along the quieter back canals of Venice.
