Masquerade Ball Scavenger hunt
in the museum of the 18th century Venice
TOUR DESCRIPTION
Would you like to discover a hidden gem and immerse yourself in the fascinating world of masks and Carnival? This guided tour, designed as a scavenger hunt, takes place in one of the most sumptuous palaces in town: Ca’ Rezzonico, the Museum of 18th-Century Venice, which recreates the atmosphere of an authentic Venetian palace of the era. Located in the heart of the Dorsoduro district, off the beaten path, it offers the chance to enjoy a quieter, less touristy side of Venice, away from the crowds.
Among dazzling frescoes and extraordinary works of craftsmanship, you will experience a vivid journey into daily life in Venice during the Settecento: how people lived, celebrated, dressed, and entertained themselves in a world of salons, music, and Carnival rituals.
THE GAME
