Amankora
The first resort in Bhutan and with five lodges across its central and western valleys, Amankora has been a part of this legendary Buddhist Kingdom for almost 20 years.
From its canal-side perch in San Polo, Aman Venice is a window into the city’s historic glories and modern-day cultural highs. Priceless art and iconic landmarks reveal themselves at every turn – most just a stroll or short gondola ride away, but for the most unique and memorable encounters, turn to Aman’s experts for insider access to the secrets of the city – from bespoke, chef-led tours of the Rialto market to private boxes for the opera at Le Fenice.
The house of Verdi and Rossini, of Prokofiev and Britten, the Teatro La Fenice has been a preeminent international opera venue since its foundation in 1792. Aman Venice guests have access to a private box, allowing a privileged view of the iconic stage. The experience includes boat transfers, aperitivi and, afterwards, dinner at Aman Venice.
Aman Venice has partnered with Row Venice, a team dedicated to preserving the traditional Venetian style of gondola rowing known as "voga alla veneta", offering guests the opportunity to try their hand at this iconic skill. Following a transfer to the Row Venice meeting point, guests can enjoy a private lesson with a professional instructor.
In a city of water and stone, green spaces come as small revelations. Among the alleyways and canals, private gardens are tucked away like secrets; often, the only giveaway being a cascade of wisteria over a balustrade. Discover these hidden enclaves of natural beauty with a personal tour of Venice’s most alluring gardens, including that of Casanova’s childhood home, and explore a world of powder-pink roses, manicured hedgerows, vegetable gardens, beds of lavender, and loggias enwrapped by Virginia creeper.
There is no better time to experience Venice’s fabled waterways than in the summer months. To experience the season in all its glory, Aman Venice takes its Cook the Lagoon concept to the water, providing guests with a matchless culinary experience aboard the famed, historic sailing boat, Edipo Re.
Curated and led by the foremost experts in their fields, whether art historians, architects, chefs or engineers, Aman Venice’s privately guided excursions allow you to fully appreciate and absorb the magic of this remarkable ‘floating city’, without the crowds.
