About this activity
This cultural tours is one of the standout things to do in Venice, Italy. Rated 4.0/5 by 3 travellers, it combines the highlights below into a single, easy-to-book experience from €267 per person. Whether you're a goth, a hopeless romantic, a music lover, poet, philosopher, or simply seeking a peaceful escape, San Michele Cemetery offers a unique kind of inspiration — quiet, timeless, and deeply moving.
Are you looking for a peaceful break from the crowds of Venice? The monumental cemetery on San Michele Island is the perfect retreat — silent, reflective, and full of hidden beauty.
Join this extraordinary tour and hop on a vaporetto to reach San Michele, the city's cemetery island in the middle of the lagoon. Discover the final resting place of great minds like Ezra Pound, Joseph Brodsky, and Igor Stravinsky.
Whether you're a goth, a hopeless romantic, a music lover, poet, philosopher, or simply someone in search of inspiration, San Michele offers a rare and contemplative experience.
We’ll visit the Renaissance church of San Michele in Isola, explore the Anglican and Orthodox sections, and walk through the fields reserved for nuns, monks, and war veterans. And as a final highlight, we’ll admire the modern cemetery extension designed by world-renowned architect David Chipperfield.
This is where Venetians find eternal peace — a place where time stands still, and silence is broken only by the gentle sounds of boats, waves, and seagulls.

Venice is rewarding year-round, but spring and early autumn typically bring the most comfortable temperatures and thinner crowds than peak summer. Morning departures tend to be quieter and cooler; booking ahead is recommended in high season as popular cultural tours slots in Venice sell out.
