Overview
On this private walking tour, I will guide you through Dorsoduro’s relaxed streets, sharing spots that are often overlooked. Think narrow alleyways where laundry hangs overhead, peaceful canals lined with boats, and small shops where Venetians go about their day.
You’ll stop by places like Campo Santa Margherita, a lively square where locals gather for coffee or a spritz, and Squero di San Trovaso, one of the city’s last traditional gondola boatyards — still in use and tucked right along the canal.
As you wander through the quarter, I will point out hidden corners, small architectural gems, street art, and everyday places that reflect the real rhythm of Venetian life. I bring my own style and perspective, whether it’s focused on art, history, food, or simply sharing favorite local hangouts.
This is a relaxed, informal way to explore Venice, more about soaking in the atmosphere and seeing the city through a local’s eyes.
I am a natural storytellers and I can’t wait to share some of my unique stories and personal anecdotes with you! Feel like changing the route a bit? No problem, I will be happy to personalise the tour to your wishes and make my city your city!
