Discovering the green heart of Venice

Take a guided bike tour led by a local lagoon expert and explore Sant’Erasmo, the island that once nourished the people of the Serenissima with its lush gardens, orchards, and vineyards. Today, it remains a peaceful, tourist-free haven beloved by Venetian families and anyone seeking a slower, quieter side of the city.

Visit the 19th-century Austrian fort Torre Massimiliana, stop at an organic apiary to sample barena honey and savory treats, and discover the exceptional Prosecco produced right here in the lagoon.

End the tour with a tasting of Orto wine, surrounded by nature and facing the skyline of Venice—from a perspective few travelers ever see.
