A Lavish Odyssey
in Venice's Lagoon

Experience the magic of the Venetian Lagoon,

where every journey tells a story

Our Story

It all started with a cooler of prosecco and two childhood friends—Carlo and Tommaso—who knew the lagoon’s secret corners better than the city’s crowded squares. Weekends meant ferrying friends to forgotten vegetable gardens on Sant’Erasmo, and chasing sunsets that painted Burano in neon pastels. Word spread faster than the tide: “Can we come next time?”

 

Soon the little boat had a waiting list, and our hobby needed a name.

 

The promise is the same: climb aboard as travellers, step off as lagoon insiders with moments the Grand Canal will never show you.

Discover Venice from a New Perspective

 Our carefully crafted boat tours reveal hidden corners, peaceful stretches of water, and centuries-old traditions that shape everyday life on the lagoon.

 

Whether you’re here for a romantic getaway, a family adventure, or simply looking to experience Venice differently, our tours blend comfort, local insight, and a touch of luxury—making every moment unforgettable.

Authentic Culinary Experiences

Every stop is hand-picked to pair the lagoon’s quiet beauty with its freshest flavours—far from the bustle of the Grand Canal.

 

Our bespoke boat tours weave between emerald-rimmed islands such as Sant’ Erasmo, the city’s “vegetable garden,” to colourful Burano for a glass of crisp white wine and a platter of lagoon-caught seafood cicchetti in a family-run osteria overlooking the fishing nets.

Small, Intimate Groups

Our tours are purposely intimate. The result is a relaxed, tailor-made adventure where you’re not part of a crowd—you’re part of the experience.

 

The skipper can nudge into secluded coves that bigger boats bypass, linger longer when you want “just one more” photo, and adjust the itinerary on the fly for a spontaneous swim or an extra glass of prosecco.
