Itinerary
Day 1
Starting our tour by the Rialto bridge, we first have a look at the supposed family home of Marco Polo; this will be the right spot to recall the incredible 27 years journey of Marco through Asia. We proceed then to Cannaregio, the north-east district of the city: secluded by geography from the bustling Rialto-San Marco hub, this area still keeps an authentic Venetian ambiance.
Approaching the northern most edge of Venice , we get to the parish of Madonna dell'Orto, the right spot to view the great Tintoretto.
Just close by we'll bring back to life an oriental flavoured history as we view some curious embedded stone figures of a camel and its turbanned merchant master.
Further ahead the churchless campo of the New Ghetto welcomes us into the first established premises where Jews of diverse provenances were obliged to reside from 1516 until 1797. Within a most restrained space, a cosmopolitan group of Jews contributed to both the commercial wealth of Venice and the diffusion of their own culture.
