Sita Navigazione

Every year from March to October Il Burchiello® navigates along the Brenta Riviera leaving form Padua (on Wednesday, Friday and Sunday) or from Venice (on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday) both for groups and for single people. The trip has a high historical, cultural and environmental importance. Along the Brenta channel it is possible to see more than 50 villas, or rather summer residences of the Venetian aristocracy. The places you will go through are particularly beautiful as well as the hydraulic works, which were built to make the channel navigable thus allowing the development of the civilisation there, are of high technological value. Along the route Il Burchiello® stops in the three most beautiful and important villas: Villa Pisani, Barchessa Valmarana or Villa Widmann, and Villa Foscari also known as "Malcontenta".

The trip lasts one day and always foresees the journey back to Padua or Venice for single visitors by SITA bus (included in the price),

The motor-driven boats used to navigate, “Il Burchiello” and “MEDOACUS”, have heating and air conditioning, bar, toilettes, microphone, and cable radio set. The internal furniture is of good materials. The three post sofas are positioned as to let the passengers admire comfortably the extraordinary mixture of history, art and nature that make up the Brenta Riviera.
