It is easy to imagine that Venice, due to its multitude of bridges and very small streets ( calli), is inaccessible with a wheelchair.
Instead, this city does not constitute an architectural barrier for the disabled people because with the help of local steamboats you can turn it wherever you want.
This 4 hour tour is an excellent opportunity to get to know the most important and famous places of the city with an expert guide that will show you the easier way to ride with a wheelchair.
Whether is or not your first time in the floating city enjoy this trip that will lead you from the marvel of Piazza San Marco with its majestic Doge’s Palace to Rialto district with its wonderful bridge.

My wife and I signed up to take this tour on the first day we arrived in Venice. We had never been to Italy before and thought the tour would give us a little local knowledge that would help us get acclimated to the city. It turned out to be a great decision. Our tour guide, Denise, brought us to many different sites and had interesting stories and anecdotes that made the tour the highlight of our trip. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who is visiting Venice.
