Private · Museum ticket included · 2 hours · Starts 16:00 near Rialto
This is the only tour we found that takes you inside Palazzo Grimani with the ticket included. It is a private walking tour on Viator: your guide meets you at 16:00 in Campo San Bartolomeo, by the Goldoni statue near the Rialto Bridge.
From there you leave the crowds behind for the lanes of Cannaregio and Castello: the courtyards where Marco Polo's family lived, a bookshop famous for storing its books in boats and bathtubs, and the quiet canals few visitors find.
The walk ends at the Museo di Palazzo Grimani, with your entrance ticket included in the price. Hotel pickup and drop-off are also listed as included.
One review so far, five stars. The price, from $201, is for a private group, so it works out reasonably for three or four people. On your own, the museum ticket is €14 and the walk from Rialto takes 10 minutes.

You want a guide, prefer to avoid crowds and like the idea of finding Venice's quieter corners. You are a small group happy to pay for a private tour.
You are on a tight budget: the museum is €14 (free under 18), and you can walk there yourself from St Mark's in 10 minutes.
