Overview

Discover Venice from the water on the lagoon's original sunset cruise, operating for over 20 years. Avoid generic modern motorboats and step aboard "El Sultan," a historically restored wooden Venetian Bragozzo. What sets this journey apart is our exclusive route through the spectacular Bacino di San Marco, widely considered one of the most beautiful views in the world. Watching the sunset transform the Doge’s Palace and St. Mark’s Campanile into a golden masterpiece from the water is unforgettable. As the pioneers who created this tour, we know exactly how to catch the absolute best light of the day. Led by born-and-raised local captains, this intimate cruise is limited to just 11 guests to ensure a romantic atmosphere. As the sun dips below the horizon, you will enjoy a relaxed toast with chilled, high-quality Prosecco flowing throughout the cruise. Choose the authentic tradition that travelers celebrate as an experience that surpasses a gondola.

Designed by Baldassare Longhena with attention to Palladio's models, it is one of the best expressions of Venetian Baroque architecture.
