Tour to the islands of San Servolo and San Lazzaro degli Armeni
Overview
If you have already been to Venice and have already visited the most famous places or want to get away from the crowds, this is the tour for you.
You will meet your guide in Piazza San Marco and take the vaporetto to reach the island of San Servolo, one of the most complex and demanding restoration projects in Venice. The island is characterized by a vast architectural complex and a beautiful park and was a monastic seat for a millennium.
After another transfer by vaporetto you will reach the Island of San Lazzaro degli Armeni, a small island completely occupied by a monastery, the mother house of the Mechitarist order. The island is one of the first centers of Armenian culture in the world. An oasis of peace, which contains many secrets and treasures inside. A Mechitarist father will guide you from the quaint Armenian church to the small museum with Lord Byron's mementos.
The visit inside the monastery can take place in English, Armenian, Italian (or Italian with English translation). The starting time of the tour can vary based on the availability of the visits.

If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy.
