TRIP HIGHLIGHTS AND DESCRIPTION
If you're looking for a unique view of Venice, the Cannaregio Tour is the perfect choice. This tour offers a chance to discover the secrets, history, and hidden gems of one of Venice’s largest districts, Cannaregio, located in the northern part of the city, where the railway station is also situated today.
Cannaregio is a lively area with a mix of classic Venetian charm and local life. It’s known for its bacari, traditional wine bars where locals gather to relax. The Jewish Ghetto tour takes visitors through a maze of streets and canals, often with gondolas and painters capturing the distinctive Venetian light. The area is filled with personality and history, making it a memorable part of the city.
The world’s first Jewish Ghetto is located here, and visitors will learn about its complex history and significance. As an art historian and lover of the area, the guide will share fascinating insights into its past and present. The tour includes a scenic view of the lagoon, a walk through the historic Jewish Ghetto, and a visit to a hidden green park, perfect for a relaxing break. Along the way, guests will discover the famous bacari wine bars, the Merchant of Venice area, and places tied to legendary stories.
Highlights also include a visit to the Scuola Grande della Misericordia, a former confraternity with an interesting history, a unique bridge, and a special, lesser-known church. The tour also takes visitors to the homes of renowned painters Tintoretto and Titian, and for those interested, a short detour to the Venetian Pantheon, a must-see church in Venice.
Venice’s street names, or "nizioleti," are also part of the city’s charm, offering visitors a glimpse into its unique character. This relaxed walk through Cannaregio and the Jewish Ghetto immerses travelers in authentic Venetian daily life, with plenty of opportunities to learn about the city’s rich history, art, and architecture while meeting locals along the way.
Key highlights of the Cannaregio tour include the history of a notable Venetian family, a hidden green park, the world’s first Jewish Ghetto, Shylock’s footsteps from Shakespeare’s *Merchant of Venice*, legends tied to the Church of Madonna dell'Orto, Tintoretto and Titian’s homes, the Scuola Grande della Misericordia, and stunning views from Fondamente Nove. On clear days, visitors may even catch a glimpse of the Dolomites and PreAlps mountains. The beautiful Gesuiti church, often missed by tourists, is another highlight of the tour.
This tour can be fully customized to suit the interests of the participants, ensuring a personal and unforgettable experience in one of Venice’s most enchanting areas.
