An exclusive tour aboard an authentic historic bragozzo – an unforgettable hour in the magic of the Venetian lagoon
Experience Venice from a unique perspective, off the beaten tourist track and immersed in its most authentic soul. Climb aboard a historic motorized bragozzo, a traditional lagoon boat that has been expertly restored and once sailed these waters carrying goods and stories. Today, it welcomes you for an evocative journey in the heart of Venice and its southern lagoon.
The departure is from Giudecca or Zattere, places already rich in charm and history. The tour begins along the Giudecca Canal, with the Venetian skyline unfolding before you: domes, bell towers, and facades reflecting on the water. After a few minutes, here is the first stop: we will stop in front of the St. Mark's basin, the panoramic viewpoint par excellence. Here you can take breathtaking photographs of St. Mark's Square, the Doge's Palace, the Campanile, and the Basilica, which stand out elegantly above the sea. A perfect moment to immerse yourself in the city's iconic beauty.
We then set off again towards the south, leaving the monumental heart behind to enter a quieter lagoon, almost suspended in time. We will sail around the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, dominated by the imposing church designed by Palladio, and approach San Clemente, now a refined island resort, once a place of hospitality and spirituality.
As you sail, the bragozzo glides gently on the water, allowing you to enjoy every detail: the lights dancing on the surface of the sea, the outline of the islands, the hushed silence of the lagoon. There are no sails, but there is the understated elegance of a boat that still speaks the language of the Venetian seafaring tradition.
The tour continues along the south side of Giudecca, the less traveled side, but full of authentic charm: construction sites, hidden gardens, old houses, glimpses of everyday life in the lagoon. A real, lived-in Venice, far from the hustle and bustle and the noise.
After about an hour, you return to the starting point, with your heart full of emotion and your gaze still lost between the sky and the water.
Book your spot on board now for an exclusive, intimate, and profound experience. Let the lagoon lull you and discover Venice as you've never seen it before: authentic, silent, enchanting.
