Overview

  • The perfect choice for cruise passengers disembarking in Ravenna and continuing their journey in Venice. This premium small-group shore excursion combines comfortable transport, secure luggage handling, and Venice's most iconic experiences into one seamless day.

    After pickup directly at Ravenna Cruise Port, travel to Venice, where your luggage will be securely stored while you explore the city with an expert local guide. Unlike standard shore excursions, this tour includes both a private water taxi ride along the Grand Canal and a traditional gondola ride through Venice's picturesque canals.

    Discover Venice's most famous landmarks, including St. Mark's Square, the Rialto Bridge, the Doge's Palace and the Rialto Market, while enjoying the comfort of a small group with a maximum of 10 guests per guide.

    Designed specifically for disembarking cruise guests, this tour ends in Venice, making it ideal for passengers continuing to a hotel, airport or train station after their cruise.
