Overview
Embark on a four-hour journey through Venice’s heart, from the Jewish Ghetto to the grandeur of the Doge’s Palace. Start in the world’s first Ghetto (1516), a vibrant hub of Jewish life marked by narrow alleys, canals, and the perseverance of its community. Learn about its history of confinement, scholarship, and innovation, and how “ghetto” became a symbol of segregation. Explore the synagogues, including the Great German, Spanish, and Levantine Synagogues, where architectural elegance and hidden stories of resilience await.
Next, indulge in Venetian street food as you head towards Rialto, passing winding alleys. Enjoy cicchetti or pastries by the canals before reaching the Rialto Bridge, Venice's mercantile heart, offering views of the Grand Canal and its bustling market.
Conclude at the Doge’s Palace, an iconic Venetian Gothic masterpiece. Explore the Great Council Hall, adorned with frescoes by Veronese, and walk across the Bridge of Sighs, where prisoners once had their last view of Venice.
