It originated as a fishing boat and was used to tackle long sea voyages. Formerly armed with sails but currently “rowed” or propelled by motor.
Enhancing the 2-hour tour will be Prosecco and snacks, a tasty combination of local flavors and Venetian tradition that will delight you for the whole experience.
Row like a Venetian

Formerly considered an essential practice for trade, transport and defense in the lagoon, it is now one of the most authentic and precious treasures handed down intact over the centuries.
