Discover with me the amazing history of the first Ghetto in the world. I will guide you around the Campo del Ghetto and inside two of the five Venetian Synagogues, a renascence treasure that survives the Shoah. I will be delighted to tell you everything about the Jewish Community of Venice nowadays, my traditions, Judaica arts and the incredible Ashkenazy and Sephardic culinary legacy that has been left in the Venetian cuisines.

If you see a Badge of Excellence label, the award is based on average review ratings, share of bookings with a review, and number of bookings through City Boat Tours over a 12-month period.

The importance of any one factor over any other in a sort order varies, and the balance is constantly being reviewed and adjusted. We're always updating our systems and testing new ways to refine and improve your results to make them as relevant as possible to meet your needs.
