If you want a unique experience on your trip to Italy, look no further than this amazing traditional wooden boat tour around the Venice Lagoon! An expert will pick you up from your hotel and take you out of the canals and toward some iconic spots, as well as some that sometimes pass unnoticed. Located in northeastern Italy, Venice is also known as the "City of Canals" or the "City of Bridges". This is because the city was built on a group of over 100 islands in a lagoon right off the Adriatic Sea, and its roads are actually water canals populated by gondolas or vaporettos (water buses), which take locals and tourists to where they need to go.
On the day of your boat tour around the Venetian Lagoon, your instructor at DeTourist offers a convenient pick-up service from several places in Venice. Please make sure to clarify where you would like to be picked up when booking, and contact your instructor to set up a meeting place and time. You'll meet your expert instructor, and they'll help you board the beautiful traditional wooden boat, which should be accessible to people with reduced mobility and other types of disabilities. Once you're ready, it's time to go!
This tour is customisable, which means that you can tell your instructor what you would like to see, and they will try to accommodate your wishes. However, generally, you will be sailing by the Bacino di San Marco, along the Canale della Giudecca, and into the open Venice Lagoon. The pace will be relaxed and tranquil, so you can take photos, enjoy conversations with your loved ones, or just enjoy the incredible landscapes of Venice from a distance. Your expert instructor will make sure that you get to know the monuments and landmarks, and their history, as much as possible during the tour, to blend culture, history, beautiful scenery, and a peaceful atmosphere, all in a 2-hour boat tour!
