THE INVESTIGATION

AN ADVENTURE THROUGH THE SECRETS OF LA SERENISSIMA

Venice, 16th century. While La Serenissima shines with gold and marble, a brutal crime shakes one of the city’s most powerful families. A name is erased from the records, a guilt is buried. But Venice, as we know, never forgets anything, it always hides its secrets in plain sight.

Are you ready to become detectives of history? The Secret of Titian is a self-guided urban treasure hunt–escape game: you are the protagonists. You are entrusted with an investigation that has remained unsolved for centuries. At the center of it all? The legendary painter Titian.

Venice has a secret. You hold the key.

THE EXPERIENCE

WHAT MAKES THIS TREASURE HUNT UNIQUE

This self-guided urban investigation is the perfect alternative to the classic Venetian tour. Ideal for couples, families, and groups of friends ready to work as a team. No apps, no screens - just you, a paper kit full of clues, puzzles, and secret codes… and a 16th-century Venice speaking to you through its stones, palaces, and silences.

REAL CLUES

You’ll need to sharpen your eye through calli, bridges, and churches. The city itself becomes your guide: every detail could hold the answer you’re looking for.

NARRATIVE TRAIL

Puzzles, letters, codes, and printed symbols. A complete kit designed to make you collaborate. If you don’t work as a team, you won’t make it out!

ZERO APP

No screens, no notifications. Just your intuition and the pleasure of solving a mystery together, discovering Venice from a different perspective.

FINAL REWARD

Solving a 16th-century crime builds a thirst. A Venetian aperitif awaits you: a spritz (or a glass of prosecco of your choice) and a cicchetto to celebrate your success. Plus, a small keepsake to take home - and above all, to use in Venice!

THE ROUTE

A VENICE TO DECODE

Two routes available:

PIAZZALE ROMA - FONDAMENTA NOVE

SAN MARCO - FONDAMENTA NOVE

Both itineraries unfold over a route of approximately 2.5-3 km. You can start from Piazzale Roma or from the San Marco area. A trail of clues will lead you to the evocative Fondamente Nove, crossing a lesser-known Venice - the one that “hit-and-run” tourists never get to see.

Read below and see which profile fits you best.

PERFECT FOR

  • The endlessly curious: those who want to uncover the “why” behind a hidden Venice and real historical events.
  • Those who’ve been before: if you already know St. Mark’s Square and want to finally discover the “other” Venice.
  • Close-knit groups: couples, friends, or families who enjoy laughing, debating, and working together toward a shared goal (and a well-earned spritz!).

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR

  • Those in a hurry if you want to “tick off” Venice in 30 minutes, this experience may frustrate you; it requires time and attention to detail.
  • Those who don’t want to think: if you’re looking for a tour where someone talks and you relax, a guided tour is a better fit; here, you are the protagonists.
  • The phone-dependent: if you can’t disconnect from Google Maps or notifications, you might miss the crucial detail hidden on that capital…
