The 90 minute panoramic cruise takes you from the San Marco bay past the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute down the Canale della Giudecca along Fondamenta Zattere and Dorsaduro. At the level of the Hilton Stucky we shall turn back along the Giudecca shore, pass San Giorgio Maggiore before taking a turn towards Lido di Venezia. Having explored one of the less well known sections of Lido we shall finally return to our starting point via Sant'Elena and the Giardini della Biennale. All this with the magic colours of a Venetian sunset, a glass of spritz or prosecco in your hand, and to the gentle jazz music of a tenor saxophone…
1h 30mEvery evening our luxury catamaran turns into a jazz boat. Enjoy the most magical sunset with a live saxophonist and a true Venetian Aperitivo. Pure magic!!
