Detailed description

Discover Venetian sights in a kayak from Venice

In northern Italy in the Veneto region lies the Italian capital Venice, which was built on several small islands in an Adriatic lagoon. There are only a few streets, but many canals with palaces from the Renaissance and Gothic periods. Let yourself be enchanted by the unique flair of this lagoon city. From the water you can best discover the beautiful city of Venice. Therefore, a kayak tour in Venice is an absolutely great experience to experience the Italian buildings and impressions.

On this guided kayak tour in Italy you will discover many canals, famous places and other famous quarters of Venice. For example, admire the Rialto Bridge and Marco Polo's house. The organizer will provide you with the necessary equipment and a bottle of water is included. Even with little or no experience and for children from 6 years, this kayak tour is an activity for the whole family. While you enjoy the charming flair on the Venetian water, past the Canal Grande, the guide will explain some of the Gothic, Byzantine and Moorish influences in architecture and history. You will marvel at colourful brick buildings, pillars and verandas that seem to float as you paddle past.

Far away from the crowds and the famous sights, such as the backwater districts, you can see from the water the daily life of Venice: how locals repair their boats, prepare food, do their work and shop at local markets. Your two-hour kayak tour in Venice ends in Central Venice, where you can further explore the precious history of one of Italy's most unique and magical cities.

Kayak in the City: Fantastic Venice Tour

I haven't even found a (commercial) offer for kayak sightseeing in Amsterdam. In 98% of the cities, such a tour is of course impossible. But my dear Venice makes it possible. Wonderful! Highly praiseworthy! Five thick acknowledgment asterisks.

Show review in original language

Kajakin der Stadt: Phantastische Venedig-Tour

Nicht mal in Amsterdam habe ich bisher ein (kommerzielles) Angebot für Kajak-Sightseeing gefunden. In 98 % der Städte ist eine solche Tour natürlich unmöglich. Aber mein verehrtes Venedig macht es möglich. Wunderbar! Hochlobenswert! Fünfmal ein dickes Anerkennungssternchen.

The evening tour was GREAT

Venice by kayak? If someone had told me beforehand, I would have thought: impossible. Do the gondoliers allow that? :-) I'm very happy to have found and booked this here. 5 sparkling stars for this exceptional tour.

Show review in original language

Die Abendtour war SUPER

Venedig im Kayak? Hätte mir das vorher jemand erzählt, hätte ich gedacht: unmöglich. Erlauben die Gondoliere das denn? :-)

Ich bin sehr froh das hier gefunden und gebucht zu haben. 5 funkelnde Sterne für diese Ausnahmetour.

The absolutely special perspective for a city tour through Venice

Seeing the Venetian sights from a kayak perspective is spectacular. On no other city tour that I have taken in Venice so far, I have been able to see and experience the Rialto Bridge or the Canale Crande in this way. I would love to do this tour again! Top

Show review in original language

Die absolut besondere Perspektive für eine Stadttour durch Venedig

Die venezianischen Sehenswürdigkeiten aus der Kajakperspektive zu sehen ist spektakulär. Auf keiner anderen Stadtführung, die ich bisher in Venedig mitmachte, habe ich die Rialtobrücke oder den Canale Crande auf diese Weise sehen und erleben können. Gerne würde ich diese Tour noch einmal mitmachen! Top

2 hours in a kayak through Venice

I thought it was good that you first received professional instruction. The boats and other equipment were okay. The setting is magical.

2 Stunden im Kajak durch Venedig

Dass man erst fachmännisch eingewiesen wird, fand ich gut. Die Boote und die übrige Ausrüstung waren okay. Die Kulisse zauberhaft.
