First, you have breakfast in the hidden Caffè del Doge, where you get the best coffee in the city, before you dive into the hustle and bustle of the Rialto fish market. Afterwards, you marvel at fashion and perfume art in the sumptuous atmosphere of the Palazzo Mocenigo and then take midmorning refreshments of cicchetti, Italian tapas, and an ombra, a breath of chilled wine, in Venice’s oldest bacaro.

 

You can then watch the boatbuilders going about their work at the gondola boatyard at the Rio San Trovaso or you explore historical Venice with the eyes of Carpaccio, Veronese and Canaletto in the Galleria dell’Accademia. In the evening you dine at one of the most beautiful restaurants of the city and then enjoy the blue hour in the bars along the Fondamenta degli Ormesini.

Two pages are dedicated to each favourite place with colour photographs, special tips, directions and opening hours. With the practical arrangement according to neighbourhoods you can explore the surroundings of your favourite place at the same time.
