Overview

Escape the crowds of central Venice and explore the island of San Giorgio Maggiore, the pearl of Venice. It is a perfect, quiet area to enjoy the beauty of Venice and to immerse yourself in history. With this experience you will admire the most important places in the San Giorgio Island, discover exceptional art heritage, outside the usual tourist areas, and savor the flavors of food prepared at the San Giorgio Café, with a Sicilian cookery, rich in flavours, scents and feeling, combined with the Venetian gastronomical tradition. Just a few minutes by bus-boat from Piazza San Marco you will experience the fascinating atmosphere of the Island as you listen to your video-guide. Your small tour group (25 people maximum) will be escorted through the areas of the monumental complex of the Giorgio Cini Foundation and of the Vatican Chapels, the ten chapels designed by international architects, by a multi-lingual staff member.
