My name is Martino Rizzi. I am a born Venetian and since 2005 I work as a professional licensed tour guide to the city of Venice, with qualification in Italian, English and Spanish. After a MA from the University of Padua with a thesis on the downfall of the Republic Serenissima and having undertaken a long preparation to qualify as a guide, I enjoy a creative and stimulating profession well adapted to my passion for the history and the art of my city. Either you are looking for walking tours trough the back alleys or you want to visit the magnificent churches and museums of Venice you will have at your side a ready guide to answer your questions and involve you in the threads of the history of the most extraordinary city in the world. Moreover not to miss is a guided boat tour to the islands of the Lagoon to understand the fascinating history of the origins up to the challenges of the present sailing amidst a pristine landscape of natural beauty. This kind of tour requires to rent a third party boat. With my suggestion you can chose the company who best suits your needs.
