We will start our private tour in Venice from the St. Mark’s square, major square in Venice. It is usually called just the Piazza. This urban space has a seen a great deal of historical events in Venice and that’s why it has a certain historical significance. It is usually very crowded there, so you won’t be able to hear the sound of traffic. We will proceed by crossing the Grand Canal with a traghetto gondola.

The Dorsoduro district is our next stop. This district is very quiet if compared to the St. Mark’s Square. It also has several tourist attractions: the Palazzo Dario, San Pantalon, Ca’ Foscari, San Trovaso, Palazzo Zenobio and lots of others.  Ca’Rezzonico Palace is also a very interesting place to visit. As a professional private guide in Venice I would strongly recommend you to take a look at this palazzo. Today it is a beautiful museum, where you can admire the luxury of the 18 century attire.

You will find there numerous paintings by well-known Italian artists such as Francesco Guardi, Pietro Longhi, Giandomenico Tiepolo. There are vast collections of antique furniture in the Palazzo. Besides that you will be able to take a look at a matchless collection of Venetian glass. It is worth noting that there is a breathtaking view of the Grand Canal from the Ca’Rezzonico Palazzo. You will find this place remarkable, be sure about that.
