Mejores Tours y Viajes de Puente de los suspiros

The well-known 36-foot white limestone bridge with windows spanning the Rio di Palazzo was built in 1602 by Antoni Contino and joins Venice's New Prison with the Doge's Palace interrogation rooms. The name of the bridge known in Italian as Ponte dei Sospiri is said to be referencing how prisoners being led to their cells or to the executioner would let out a sigh as they saw Venice one last time before their confinement. The 1979 movie "A Little Romance" starring Laurence Olivier and Diane Lane was based on the Venice lore that couples would have eternal love and happiness if they kissed while their boat passed under the Bridge of Sighs at sunset while the bells of St. Mark's Campanile ring.

7-Day Italy, Switzerland & France Loop Tour: Rome, Venice, Lucerne & the French Riviera

A memorable European adventure. I traveled solo and joined a very friendly group. Venice was my favorite stop, especially the atmosphere around St. Mark's Square. The guide helped me find the meeting point after I wandered into the wrong street, haha. Everything worked out fine.

7-Day Italy, Switzerland & France Loop Tour: Rome City Walk, Venice, Florence & the French Riviera

Tour guide is great, and has great knowledge of each place. Although the trip was hard for my niece who is first timer because it is not in English, Alisa did her best to explain to us in English in between. Chinese talks. The driver is very careful and good, not erratic like some drivers in tours. Website advertisement must specify the long walks required. Hotels were far from centres.

7-Day Artistic Italy Loop Tour: Rome, Tuscany, Florence, Pisa, Venice & Cinque Terre

My friend and I joined this Artistic Italy tour and loved every day. Rome was an incredible start, especially seeing the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain. Tuscany was beautiful, and visiting Pienza and Siena felt like stepping into a postcard. Cinque Terre was the highlight of the trip with its colorful villages and stunning coastal views.

Our guide in Rome was amazing—so knowledgeable and engaging. He answered every question, kept the group organized, and made history come alive. The way he pointed out little details at the Trevi Fountain was unforgettable.
