About Bassani
Since 1860, Bassani has operated across Venezia as an integrated tourism and port services provider. The company functions simultaneously as a travel agency, destination management company, tour operator, maritime agency, and freight forwarder—a scope of operations that reflects its deep roots in Venice's maritime tradition.
Bassani delivers MICE services encompassing groups, series, and full-scale events, alongside incentive travel programmes. Its corporate division handles business travel, recruiting initiatives, and training programmes. Ground handling and shore excursions form the backbone of its transfers offering, while accommodation services cover FIT arrangements. The activities portfolio includes shore excursions and special event organisation. This multi-disciplinary structure allows Bassani to manage complex itineraries that blend land and maritime logistics without relying on external partners for core operational elements.
The company's heritage as both a maritime agent and freight forwarder distinguishes it within Venice's DMC landscape, positioning it to handle logistics that many competitors cannot address in-house. This integration of port services with tourism planning gives Bassani distinctive capability in coordinating transfers and excursions for cruise passengers and incentive groups arriving via Venezia.
