Be Unique Italy

Tea with a Countess (experience only) - 2 hours

A TEA WITH THE COUNTESS, A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE IN VENICE

At confirmed date on 11.00am, meet with our staff at the lobby of your hotel and let’s jump on board our private motor-launch to reach a beautiful Palazzo on the Grand Canal for a unique Venetian experience.

Enjoy a ride along the canals of Venice until we reach the water-door entrance of a private palace, located right at the heart of the Grand Canal.

Here you will be met by the countess (or in case someone of her family) who still lives inside this sumptuous mansion and enjoy tea-time with her, listening to her stories and the anecdotes on the Palace. The palace was built in the middle of the 16th century. What is now the building's main façade – entirely covered by frescoes, originally formed the side of the building that overlooked the garden. Built during the transition period between the Renaissance and Baroque, the facade of the mansion is extraordinarily compact and regular, divided into ground floor, two main floors and an attic. You will be amazed by the view of the balcony of the Palace, right on the Grand Canal. The building is served by a superb entrance to the Grand Canal and then through a large main staircase that allows access to the two main floors.

Another element that is unique, is the back garden, very nice and extraordinarily extended in length, made during the nineteenth century.

At the end of the tea-time, you will be free to enjoy the rest of the day on your own.
