City Tours in Venice: Unusual Venice 9

< Previous Tour        Next Tour >

Venice seen through the eyes of poets and writers.

Venice has captured the hearts of an extraordinary range of writers, all drawn to it to find their inspiration, or desperately seeking for consolation, or just for the sheer pleasure of its unique setting and its works of art.

The city has held an unrivalled place in the Western imagination and has been endlessly described in prose and verse. After centuries, Venice remains much as it was in the past.

The lives and experiences of some of her most distinguished visitors like Byron, Ruskin, Henry James or Browning can still  reveal some of  Venice’s hidden corners, while romance is brought vividly to life.

Reading the poets words, while picking from  hilarious and enlightening anedoctes, we will follow the poets' steps in Venice, and  recognize the sites they romantically described.
