Venice from the Rooftops with Prosecco Tasting

Food & WinePopular
The best way to truly experience a city like Venice is in the company of a local guide. Spend a morning sipping prosecco and learning about Venetian culture and unparalleled elegance from incredible panoramic terraces not easily accessible without a local insider.
Meet your local guide and set off to discover the sestiere San Polo, one of the most lively quarters of Venice mostly inhabited by locals. Enter private Venetian palazzos and admire the wonderful views from hidden panoramic terraces. 

Your host will unlock an often overlooked perspective of the city, showing you exclusive  places and palazzos with enchanting views over the lagoon. Admire the wonderful canals, churches and bridges from a totally unique perspective and enjoy a privileged view over the most beautiful and unique city in the world.  

Discover the simple authenticity of Venice, away from mass tourism and in a very small group discover the heart of the city. See Venice from the rooftops, get lost in Rialto market, where locals still go everyday to buy fresh seafood, discover the ancient Red Light District and imagine Casanova walking through the city with one (or two) beautiful lovers. 

Walk in Venice’s smallest “calle” (street) and enjoy a traditional Aperitivo with a panoramic view of the Grand Canal. Lose track of time and feast your eyes on the rare beauty of Venice while experiencing incredible venues thanks to a local host. An experience you will never forget!
