My girlfriend and I spent a good our at this beautiful scuola. It's a little expensive and the old lady at the entrance was so grumpy, but it's really a great experience.

Tintoretto's work is amazing for its complexity and dynamism and to see how all the parts fit together is hard to take in completely in one visit but the acoustic guide... More

We visited the Leonardi Da Vinci exhibition and found it quite fascinating. From memory, I think it was 7 euro per person.
