A trip to the villas along the Brenta Riviera on the Burchiello

By: Alexandra Amico

Going along the Brenta Riviera on the Burchiello is a one-of-a-kind experience: a dive into the past of noble venetians who used this boat to reach the lush summer villas in Veneto.

The Venetian Burchiello 

The old path of the Brenta Riviera on the Burchiello dates back to the 1700 and unfolds between opulent villas along the Brent canal, a branch of the river, between Padua and Venice. The Burchiello is a wood transport which was used by rich people from Venice to reach their summer residences.
