Brunetti's Venice: Walk His Beat Through Hidden Venice

2 hours

Explore Venice through Commissario Brunetti’s world. Discover real locations from Donna Leon’s novels and uncover the city’s hidden corners.

Calling all Donna Leon fans!
Step into the world of Commissario Guido Brunetti on this exclusive walking tour through Venice, where fiction meets reality. Discover the real-life locations behind the beloved crime novels and the long-running German TV adaptation that brought Brunetti to screens across Europe.

As we explore quiet backstreets and lesser-known canals, you’ll uncover the hidden Venice that inspired author Donna Leon – from the noble palazzos to the everyday corners where Brunetti solves his cases. Along the way, you'll learn how the books evolved into a television phenomenon and how each medium portrays the city in its own way.

This isn’t just a tour about a detective – it's a journey through a city of contrasts, secrets, and deep cultural layers, seen through the eyes of one of its most iconic fictional residents.

Whether you're a devoted reader, a fan of the TV series, or simply curious about Venice beyond the postcards, this experience offers a unique and thoughtful glimpse into the city’s soul.
