Explore Jewish Venice on a Private Tour of the Ghetto and Cannaregio District
Discover a lesser-known side of Venice on a private walking tour through the Jewish Ghetto and Cannaregio district. Explore the area’s rich Jewish heritage through personal stories, landmarks, and hidden corners at your own pace. Begin in Cannaregio, a peaceful residential area filled with artisan shops and delis. Follow signs in Hebrew and Italian into the Ghetto Vecchio, where your private guide will lead you through historic streets full of cultural character.
Cross into Campo del Ghetto Nuovo, established in 1516, and hear how the community expanded vertically to adapt. See meaningful bas-reliefs and learn the story of Venice’s Jewish population over the centuries. Walk past the Deportation Memorial, the Levantine Synagogue, and the Jewish Museum.
Visit the Levantine and Spanish Synagogues with expert insight from museum guides—an exclusive experience while the museum is under restoration. Learn how Napoleon tore down the ghetto gates, ending centuries of restriction. Today, the district remains a vibrant cultural enclave—your guide will help you connect the past to the present through every street and story.
