Activity itinerary

Ghetto Ebraico

  • 1h
The Jewish Ghetto in Venice stands as the world’s first segregated area of its kind, characterised by unique "high-rise" architecture born from the need to house a growing community within strictly defined borders. Today, this historic enclave remains a poignant cultural landmark where five centuries of heritage are preserved through its ancient synagogues and the enduring legacy of the Jewish people in the Venetian Republic.

Cannaregio

  • 1h
Cannaregio is the most authentic and residential district of Venice, where wide canalside walkways like Fondamenta della Misericordia hum with the lively energy of local bacari and artisan workshops. It offers a peaceful escape from the crowds, blending quiet backstreets with magnificent architectural treasures like the Gothic Ca' d'Oro and the masterworks of Tintoretto in the Church of Madonna dell’Orto.
