Cini Foundation, Borges Labyrinth, and Vatican Chapels is a guided tour at Fondazione Giorgio Cini in Venice, covering three distinct cultural sites across San Giorgio Maggiore Island over approximately two and a half hours.

The tour takes in the Cini Foundation, a cultural complex occupying a former Benedictine monastery, along with the Borges Labyrinth, a hedge maze inspired by the writings of Jorge Luis Borges, and the Vatican Chapels, a series of contemporary architectural works commissioned for the 2018 Venice Architecture Biennale. Visitors move between these three sites on foot, experiencing monastic cloisters, formal gardens, and modern sacred architecture within a single visit.
