What to expect
Venice through Casanova's eyes
Take a charming man, a son of two actors, guide him into a church career, then easily turn him into the greatest seducer and lover of history. Catch and imprison him for immoral behavior... and then... help him escape in the most amazing way from Piombi, the lead prison.
This route is guided through the places of the adventurer Casanova. We will walk through the districts of San Marco, Castello, and Cannaregio. This route through exclusive places will reveal the life of the adventurer to you. You will see where exactly Giacomo was born: not far from the theater San Samuele, in which his mother, Zanetta Farussi, was an actress. We will visit the house where Casanova grew up, stopping to see the places frequented by the romantic hero, the old Casino Ridotto Valaresso, the trattoria Do Mori, Palazzo Bragadin. Upon request, I will tell you about the life of the 'worthy courtesans', such as Veronica Franco, a Venetian courtesan and poetess of the Renaissance era.
