Overview

Imagine the most romantic city in the world, and explore it in the most enchanting way: on a private gondola. And then with a walk in a beautiful and non-touristic area of town.
What's better than this? To have a local photographer who will fix these beautiful moments for you and who will guide you through a charming and still authentic area of Venice.
We will meet at the feet of Accademia Bridge, which offers one among the most evocative views over the Grand Canal. After the first pictures here, we will explore the district of Dorsoduro, where locals still live their everydaylife. Between one picture and the other, I will be happy to share information about Venice.
After this first part of the photoshoot, we will embark on a gondola and have a 30 minutes private gondola ride, sliding across tiny canals and also Mr. Grand Canal.
The tour includes 50 digital pictures, which will be professionally edited and sent via We Transfer within 4 days after the tour ended.
