1965 Classic Amadi Bragozzo Explore Venice on a Classic Boat Tour aboard a historic Bragozzo!

Experience the enchanting lagoon around Venice like a local with Around Venice Tours. Enjoy a delightful few hours—or a full day—on board Stella, a charming vessel built in 1965 on the Island of Burano by the Amadi family. Originally a fishing boat, Stella served this purpose until the early 2010s. In 2016, she was rescued from a half-sunken state under a bridge in Chioggia, meticulously restored, and returned to her original beauty and sturdiness. This transformation allowed her to transition from transporting fish to providing enjoyable tours for people. After her restoration, Stella began offering pleasure cruises in the southern lagoon around Chioggia. Now, under new ownership, she has relocated to Venice, allowing even more visitors to experience this classic vessel. Venice's central location makes it an ideal starting point for exploring the entire lagoon. From here, we can embark on excursions to the northern parts of the lagoon and visit renowned islands such as Murano, Burano, and Torcello. The adventure doesn't stop there; discover the island where Saint Francis of Assisi found his love for animals, or explore the place where sailors were quarantined for up to 40 days. Glide past farms where the delicious produce that graces local stores and restaurants is cultivated, and admire the myriad of birds that call the lagoon home, especially during migration season when they rest and refuel. With a bit of luck, you might even catch a glimpse of wild flamingos. There's something captivating for everyone to see or do.
