Walking Tour of Venice

Looking for a walking tour of Venice. I don't see one in the Venice section of the Italy tour book. We've really enjoyed these for other cities.

I'll get tutted at for recommending Viator; but we did a walking tour with them last trip, and it had a short gondola ride at the end, which was just heaven on a hot day.
The guide was really knowledgeable and included everyone in his talk, including some tweens who were there, to engage everyone.
I would try there.

Are you looking for a guided walking tour, or walking tour ideas you can follow yourself? Depending on what you want, and how much time you have in Venice, there is a small paperback book by Frommer’s called “ 24 Great Walks in Venice”. Pretty sure I got mine for a few dollars through Amazon.com. For each walk, it includes detailed street maps, lovely photos, and recommended places to eat within that area. Venice has loads of interesting neighborhoods worthy of separate walks.
PS: looking through this book right now, really getting inspired! Making me cry, almost.

The "Insight Guides" books have excellent walking tours mapped out. We used the Venice version for nice walks through Dorsoduro, San Marco, San Polo, and Santa Croce. Our local libraries have a good selection of Insight Guides books.
