Take a city tour to the locations of your favourite television series and enter the Commissario Brunetti’s world, known from Donna Leon's novels and their film adaptations. Along the way you will learn a lot about Venice!
The fictional character of the Venetian "Commissario Brunetti" has been a success figure for years: discover personally on site the the wonderful film scene locations from Donna Leon's novels. It is not at all easy to find the “campos” and “palazzos” where Brunetti is often on the way, because most of them are off the city highlights and well know touristic sites. On the contrary, the films are mainly shot in a rather off the beaten path Venice, like the Questura. It is so beautiful when you find the places you fancied on TV or reading the books, from Brunetti's first cases, such as "Acqua Alta", through “Beastly thigs” or “Suffer the little children”, to the youngest, whereby Raffi and Chiara no longer want to live in Venice.

Description

Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product

Stop At: Cannaregio, Venice Italy

We will start at the Brunetti's house door. The Brunetti family came and went through this front door, which every Brunetti fan can recognize, once you found it!

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Chiesa di Santa Maria Maddalena, Campo S. Maria Maddalena, 30121 Venice Italy

The headquarters of the radical animal protection organization Angelo Animale are located in this palazzo. Two masked figures flee from the side entrance and chase each other with the Commissario and his colleagues. While one of the two escapes, the other is caught and, to Brunetti's amazement, turns out to be his daughter Chiara.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Strada Nova, 30100 Venice Italy

in this bar Signora Gismondi, the neighbour of the unpopular Signora Battestini, enjoys the last two balls of chocolate ice cream of her life.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Cannaregio, Venice Italy

After the Commissario has realized that his daughter is a member of the radical animal protection organization Angelo Animale, the two have a discussion in this pub. Due to the murder of Professor Nava, who was formerly employed in the slaughterhouse, Chiara's so-called animal angels are now the focus of the investigation.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Rosa Salva - SS. Giovanni e Paolo, Castello 6779 Campo SS. Giovanni e Paolo, Venice Italy

In this bar Vice-Questore Patta used to eat a couple of glasses of grappa too much in this bar. But Vianello also appreciates the bar because of the best café in town and the delicious croissants. The inspector treats himself to a panino prosciutto or a tramezzino with ham and artichoke with a glass of white wine

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Basilica dei Santi Giovanni e Paolo (San Zanipolo), Campo SS. Giovanni e Paolo, 30122 Venice Italy

This is where Signora Maria's kiosk is located. She is well informed about the residents of your neighborhood and shows Brunetti the way to the American archaeologist Brett Lynch straight away.

Duration: 10 minutes

Stop At: Chiesa di San Francesco della Vigna, Campo San Francesco Castello 2786, 30122 Venice Italy

The tour ends in a place that we cannot miss. We reach the striking columned hall in a campo, through which the employees, visitors or delinquents in the films hurry to the Questura with the famous green door and a portal

Duration: 10 minutes
