My name is Mateus Gibson, and I founded Vène with a simple mission: to make Venice effortless, authentic, and personal for every traveler.

After falling in love with Venice’s winding canals, hidden courtyards, and unique local life, I realized how overwhelming this magical city can feel for visitors. From confusing logistics to crowded tourist traps, it’s easy to miss the true spirit of Venice without the right guidance.

That’s where Vène comes in. Living in Venice, I’ve spent years exploring every corner of the city—discovering secret spots, building relationships with artisans, and learning what makes each sestiere unique. My background in architecture and my passion for hospitality mean I don’t just plan trips—I curate experiences that reflect your interests, pace, and dreams.
