This tour begins at Calle Larga de l’Ascension, a prominent street in the renowned San Marco District, where you will meet your expert, local guide. From here, your guide will lead you to the Castello district, down dizzying streets and eerie alleyways, across spooky squares and along the creepy, barnacled piers of Venice’s myriad canals.
