A romantic cruise among the Venetian Villas of the Brenta Riviera.
Every year, from March to October, a romantic mini-cruise, among the Venetian Villas of the Riviera del Brenta, from Padua to Venice and vice versa, among art and history, along the route of the ancient Venetian Burchiello of the 1700s. The Burchiello was a typical Venetian passenger boat, equipped with a large wooden cabin, with three or four balconies, finely crafted and decorated. The Burchiello was used by the wealthier Venetian classes to reach their villas in the countryside from the city.
The Burchiello today is a modern and comfortable vessel, equipped with a cabin with comfortable sofas, a panoramic deck that allows passengers maximum visibility,air conditioning, a bar and toilets.
The programs include sailing from Padua to Venice (Padua, Stra, Dolo, Mira, Oriago, Malcontenta, Fusina, Venice) or from Venice to Padua (Venice, Fusina, Malcontenta, Oriago, Mira, Dolo, Stra, Padua) and a guided interior tour of some Venetian Villas, famous summer residences of Venetian nobles in the 1700s, rich in frescoes.
