We’ll explore the charming Cannaregio district, where peaceful canals, hidden squares, and picturesque alleyways reveal the city’s true character.
We’ll discover fascinating stories, local traditions, everyday life, and the little details that make Venice so unique. Along the way, we’ll visit Campo della Maddalena, the mysterious Rioba and Moor statues, the magnificent Church of Madonna dell’Orto, and enjoy one of the most beautiful views of Venice’s northern lagoon.
You’ll also discover how Venice was built, what really happens during acqua alta, the traditions of the Venetian Carnival, local cuisine, and much more.
