Additional Information & Description

A Venetian spritz is the centrepiece of this aperitif at St. Mark’s Royal Gardens in Venice. Pair a classic local drink with a snack platter, then use a downloadable city map and smartphone-based self-guided tour to continue exploring independently. The experience combines a café stop with sightseeing that does not depend on a live guide.

A Venetian aperitif with a view

A typical Venetian snack platter accompanies your drink, giving the stop a food element as well as an aperitif. The setting adds another reason to pause: the included view looks towards either Saint Mark’s Basin or the Royal Gardens. These are alternative outlooks, rather than a promise of both, with the waterfront or gardens providing the backdrop to your café visit.

Explore Venice from your smartphone

The experience includes a downloadable map of Venice and a self-guided tour downloaded to your smartphone. These give you a separate sightseeing element alongside the aperitif, with the city exploration taking place independently rather than as part of a guide-led group. The map provides a city reference you can consult as you explore; the smartphone tour supplies the self-guided part of the visit.
