About this tour
This session covers Campo Santa Margherita after dark, one of Venice's main student squares. You see the square filling up as the evening goes on, then move to a quieter corner to look at how the area balances a local crowd with the occasional visitor. It is a look at a side of Venice's nightlife away from the tourist-heavy streets.
We start with a sound check as the square fills, since it gets lively once the evening starts properly. I move to the quieter corner for the second stop and take your questions about the area as we go. A short list of nearby spots follows by message afterwards.
It suits anyone who wants to see a more local side of Venice after dark. It also works well booked just before you head out yourself.
Included
- Live video walk with a local guide
- Questions to your guide all the way
- A short list of places to visit later
Not included
- Internet connection
- Travel to the city

Questions about this tour
What will the session cover?
The guide walks through Venice, showing you Campo Santa Margherita, filling up and Campo Santa Margherita side bar live on camera, plus whatever else you would like to see.
What happens if my connection drops?
Rejoin with the same link within a few minutes and the guide will catch you up on anything you missed.
Can I ask the guide questions during the session, or is it a fixed script?
Anything, any time. Sessions leave room for your own questions throughout, not just at the end.
Is this suitable if I do not drink?
Yes. Say so when you book and the guide will focus on the atmosphere and venues rather than the drinks list.

How reviews work
Only travellers who booked and paid through Locals Guide and whose tour took place can leave a review, within 60 days of the tour. Every review is marked "Verified booking".

Guides cannot pay for, edit or hide reviews, and ratings are the plain average of all published reviews.
