Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of Commissario Guido Brunetti, the legendary detective from the novels by Donna Leon and the successful TV series.

On this approximately three-hour guided tour, you will discover Venice from a very special perspective – away from the usual tourist routes and right in the middle of the atmospheric locations made famous by the crime stories.

Together, we follow Brunetti’s paths through quiet calli, across picturesque bridges, and along hidden canals that repeatedly served as backdrops for the films. At the heart of the tour is the famous Questura, Brunetti’s workplace, which in reality is housed in a residential building.

On our way you can step into Guido Brunetti's shoes, sitting down for a cup of coffee in one of his favourite bars.

A special highlight of the tour, and the end of our tour, is the view over the Brunetti family rooftop terrace (from the outside), which plays an important role in several adaptations and offers an impressive view over the Grand Canal and the rooftops of Venice.

Along the way, you will hear anecdotes about everyday Venetian life, which plays a central role in the stories.

Highlights:
