PRIVATE VENICE WALKING TOUR WITH THE KIDS

Includes: St. Mark’s Square, interiors of St. Mark’s Basilica with the horses, St. Mark’s Belltower, the breath-taking view across the city and a Grand Canal tour with private motor-launch

This tour is especially designed for children: we tailored it to the need and interests of our younger guests so that they end up being our audience.

Through the entire tour the guide will use simple and comprehensible language and introduce a few basic concepts that will enable our younger guests to understand how Venice was built, how it developed through the centuries and why it ended up being such a rich merchant city.

Meeting the official guide in St. Mark’s Square and – first of all – visit the square of Saint Mark and its beautiful Basilica, climbing to the upper terrace to enjoy the view of the square.

Indoors there are several models of the church to understand how it was built and decorated, framed mosaics where kids can be shown how they were created and of course the striking bronze horses brought from Constantinople, the greatest casts of the antiquity.

St. Mark’s belltower

Then, visit to the St. Mark’s belltower and enjoy a breathtaking view across the city.

Later on, we’ll leave the square on board of our private motorboat for a thrilling ride including part of the Grand Canal. Besides the beauty of the Palazzos one gets to see how the city relies on the water ways for transport and delivery leading our imagination back to the old times, when fewer bridges where built and people heavily relied on boats.

And of course, when needed there will always be an ice-cream place within reach to freshen up!
