Venice Kayak Tours

Venice Kayak Tours offers guided paddling experiences along the canals and waterways of Venice, giving participants a low, water-level perspective on one of the world's most distinctive cities. Moving by kayak allows access to quieter corners of the lagoon city that larger vessels cannot reach, passing beneath stone bridges and alongside the weathered facades of palazzi that line the smaller rio channels.

The operator currently runs two guided experiences: a daytime kayak tour and a sunset kayak tour, both led by knowledgeable guides familiar with the rhythms and geography of the Venetian waterways. The sunset departure in particular takes advantage of the changing light over the lagoon, a quality of illumination that has drawn painters and travellers to Venice for centuries. Both tours offer an unhurried way to move through a city where the canal network is, in every practical sense, the street plan.
