    Chiesa di San Rocco

    Originally built in 1508, there's no better place to start your tour of Venice, than with this marvel through time dedicated to St. Roch, the patron saint of multiple cities in and around Venice, who played a significant role through the darkest days of history- the plague. The magnificent centuries old architecture, complemented with timeless pieces of art on the inside, will take you through time, off not only the history of the church, but that of the city.

    Basilica di Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari

    Established in 1231, yet another standing testament of gothic architecture, this Basilica whilst portrayed on the outside with a simple gothic style brick wall, it lies home to the infamous ‘Assumption of the Virgin’ by Titian, and many more ageless pieces of art, both paintings and sculptures alike.

    Ponte di Rialto

    Built in just three years, between 1588 and 1591. It remained the only way to cross the Grand Canal on foot until late 1854. The Rialto Bridge's 24-foot arch and the massive structure was built on around 12,000 wooden pilings that still support the bridge more than 400 years later.

    Scala Contarini del Bovolo

    Built to showcase the wealth of the Contarini family, this spiralling "snail" staircase to heaven, lies hidden in San Marco. This architectural marvel lies hidden and unknown to many tourists, making it a rare find.

    Piazza San Marco

    Aptly called 'the drawing room of Europe' by Napolean, the St. Marks square is by far the most iconic place in Venice. While it opens out into the sea on one front, it is bordered by the St. Marks Basilica on the other. This vast expanse, almost poetically is submerged with the high tide as the sun goes down at night.We also offer, an optional, all inclusive Gondolla tour of San Marco square.
