Travel from Trieste to Tronchetto, Venice. Here, you will board a privately-chartered boat to reach the heart of Venice. Meet your local guide and set out to discover the magnificent architectural treasures of this legendary city.
You will visit the Doges' Palace -- a symbol of the republic and a stunning example of fine Venetian-Gothic architecture. Cross the Bridge of Sighs and enter the prestigious palace whose sumptuous rooms contrast sharply with the damp prison cells on the other side of the bridge.
The Arsenal is known for its collection of more than 2,000 weapons, each of great historical importance.
Continue to St Mark's Basilica, which has always been the foremost church of the city. This is where the Dukes were ordained and for hundreds of years it was the center of religious and social life in Venice. The beautiful juxtaposition of Byzantine architecture, marble and mosaics have led to St Mark's being known as 'the Golden Church'.
Enjoy some free time to take photos of yourself with the pigeons in world-famous St Mark's Square or stroll through the narrow streets. Then, returning to Tronchetto, you'll head back to Trieste.
