Our third walking tour starts from the Salute church. This walking tour has its end on the San Giorgio Maggiore island.
The letter "A" is our starting point, but we live close to the Rialto Market vaporetto station. So, before we start our walking tour we should move from the red circle to the "A" point by the green line. We use the green direction for this purpose. While we move along the green line to the point "A" we use a Vaporetto water bus and our feet also. So, at first we should move from the Rialto Market stop (red circle in the center) until the St Mark's square, because we want to be at the top of St Mark's Campanile. Gray line is the last part of our walking tour, and we should use Vaporetto buses to move from the point "J" to the Rialto vaporetto station, which is close to the Rialto bridge (you should know that vaporetto N2 will not stop at the Rialto Market vaporetto station). Please, use the vaporetto number 2 along the grey line to return back.
