Overview

Dorsoduro is one of the six districts of Venice and includes the highest land areas of the city as Giudecca Island and Sacca Fisola island.
If you are looking for a more authentic area, this is right the place for you.
The university area is less crowded than other classic tourist areas of the historic center, but it is rich in breathtaking views, shops ,traditional restaurants , picturesque canals and artistic destinations (Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute, Peggy Guggenheim Collection, Campo Santo Stefano and Accademia Galleries).
It is very interesting to find out the place where the gondolas are built.
The Squero San Trovaso, amazing for its wooden architecture, is the most famous gondola shipyard that still exists and there you can watch gondola builders at work!
Join this 2-hours private walking tour of the Venetian district which hosts the unmissable attractions of the City of Bridges!
