What to Discover During Your Personalized Stay in Venice?
The Venice lagoon is full of treasures that are revealed according to your interests. Your tailor-made trip leads you from must-see monuments to the hidden gems of this unique city of art.
Must-Sees of the City of the Doges
Your discovery of Venice naturally begins with the majestic Saint Mark's Square, the beating heart of the Serenissima for over a thousand years. Saint Mark's Basilica, a masterpiece of Byzantine art, reveals its golden mosaics and eastern domes. The San Marco Campanile offers a panoramic view of the entire lagoon, while the Doge's Palace tells the glorious history of the Venetian Republic.
The Grand Canal, the true arterial road of the city, can be traveled by vaporetto or private boat to admire the Gothic and Renaissance palaces along its banks. The Rialto Bridge, a symbol of Venice, spans the canal in a picturesque setting. More romantic, the Bridge of Sighs connects the Doge's Palace to the old prisons, a theater of romantic legends.
The Santa Maria della Salute Basilica, a baroque jewel built in the 17th century, watches over the entrance to the Grand Canal. Its majestic dome reflects in the waters of the lagoon, creating one of the most photographed views of Venice.
The Hidden Treasures of the Venetian Lagoon
Your personalized trip to Venice reveals lesser-known facets of the destination. The island of Murano has perpetuated the art of glassblowing for centuries. Our Travel Planners organize visits to workshops where master glassmakers pass on their ancestral know-how. Burano charms with its colorful houses and lace-making tradition, while Torcello, the cradle of Venice, preserves exceptional Byzantine mosaics in its cathedral.
The authentic neighborhoods of Venice offer a different atmosphere. Dorsoduro houses the Peggy Guggenheim Collection and peaceful alleyways lined with local trattorias. The Ghetto, the first of its kind in Europe, bears witness to Venetian Jewish history. Castello, the largest sestiere, reveals the historical Arsenal and the gardens of the Biennale.
For a unique experience, our advisors can organize a private evening in a Venetian palace, a masterclass in local cuisine, or a traditional boat excursion in the lagoon at sunset.

Define Your Desires and Your Budget
Your tailor-made travel to Venice takes shape according to several essential criteria.

The type of accommodation reflects the spirit of your trip. Historical palaces transformed into luxury hotels offer a total immersion in the Venetian art of living. Boutique hotels combine authenticity and modern comfort. For families, we select spacious and well-located establishments, making it easier to move around with children.
Your budget determines the level of services: private tours with a French-speaking guide, boat-taxi transfers, gourmet restaurants, or exclusive experiences. Our Travel Planners optimize every euro invested to maximize the quality of your experience.
