Travel the stylish way in a comfortable private water taxi at one flat rate for groups of up to 10, admiring the Rialto Bridge and secret gardens before a private workshop tour in Murano. A private water-taxi tour of the Grand Canal, taking in ancient palaces, secret gardens, and the Rialto Bridge, finishing on Murano island with a private tour of a historic glassmaking workshop.
The Grand Canal curves through Venice in a long reverse-S, roughly 3.8 kilometers from one end to the other, lined by more than 170 palaces that span six centuries of the city's architecture — Gothic, Byzantine-influenced, Renaissance, and Baroque facades sitting side by side along the same stretch of water. Taking it in from a private water taxi, rather than a crowded public stop, gives you room to actually look rather than just pass through.
The Rialto Bridge, which the route passes beneath, is itself a feat of engineering most people walk straight over without a second thought. The current stone version was built between 1588 and 1591 by Antonio da Ponte, whose single 28-meter arch was considered so risky at the time that rival architects publicly predicted it would collapse. It didn't — the bridge still rests on more than 6,000 wooden piles driven into the lagoon bed.
The day finishes on Murano, where a private tour of a working glassmaking workshop — a tradition on the island dating back more than seven centuries — gives you a close look at a craft that's been central to Venice's identity for just as long.
