THE MISSION

A FAMILY ADVENTURE IN THE HEART OF VENICE

Venice is a miracle of stone floating on water but it is also fragile. To protect it, new Guardians are needed. This is not a history lesson, but an exploration challenge through the canals of Cannaregio.

A city that lives thanks to water, yet must also be protected from it. This treasure hunt is born from that idea: discovering Venice while having fun, learning to respect it and take care of it together.

The Guardians of the Venetian Lagoon is not just a treasure hunt, but an exploration game designed for families. Through clues, observation, and small missions, both adults and children become the protagonists of an adventure that speaks about water, environment, history, and the future.

Venice never sleeps, it waits. It waits for its next Guardians.

THE EXPERIENCE

WHAT MAKES THIS TREASURE HUNT UNIQUE

It’s not a tour. It’s not a lesson. It’s the most enjoyable activity you can share with your children in Venice. No apps, no backlit screens—just paper, curiosity, and a lagoon with so much to tell those who know how to listen.

LIGHT-TOUCH LEARNING

Teach your children respect for the environment and water without them even noticing. Learning happens through play.

AT YOUR OWN PACE

Take all the time you need to complete the treasure hunt at your own rhythm, with plenty of breaks for playing and taking photos, no stress.

THE ROLE OF PARENTS

Parents play a central role: guiding, explaining, and sparking curiosity, becoming Guardians themselves. Adults have fun too.

QUALITY FAMILY TIME

A meaningful moment to share with your children. And seeing a child smile when they receive their Guardian Diploma is a memory worth more than any souvenir.
