Fable of Venice: Hugo Pratt & Corto Maltese Tour

2 hours

Follow Corto Maltese through the “Fable of Venice” by Hugo Pratt. A private tour blending comics, secrets, and the city’s most evocative corners.

Wander through the dreamlike world of Hugo Pratt’s Venice, where fantasy meets reality and every alley holds a story. On this private tour, we’ll follow the adventures of Corto Maltese, the mysterious sailor and reluctant hero, through the very streets and courtyards that inspired Pratt’s masterpiece Favola di Venezia.

This experience is more than a tribute—it’s a journey into hidden Venice, led by a guide passionate about comics, history, and storytelling. You’ll discover real places drawn in the panels of Pratt’s work, walk past secretive corti, encounter the Bridge of Nostalgia, and hear tales that blur the lines between fiction and history.

Whether you're a lifelong fan or a curious explorer, this tour is a magical portal into the city’s esoteric soul and the visual poetry of one of Italy’s most iconic graphic novelists.
