Trade-off: Minimum two; no pickup or food.
Last checked: September 22, 2026. Commissions never affect our verdicts.
A private walk through Dorsoduro rather than St Mark's, from Campo Santa Margherita through the streets Venetians use, with a local guide for your party only and carbon offset included. Hotel pickup, food and drinks are not included, and the route suits a second visit more than a first. 4.89 from 127 reviews at €121 per person.
Ready to experience a side of Venice like a local, with a local? This is a tour, unlike any other! If you want to take a step away from the touristy path, there's no better way than by diving into the city's alternative side. Welcome to Dorsoduro!
If you're done with the main highlights, why not step away and take a less-traveled path that will show you an unexpected side of Venice? Follow a local guide on a private tour full of surprises and check out Campo Santa Margherita and Isola San Giorgo, and more that let the true form of the city shine!
