Itineraries

Fun & Games in Venice
One of the four bridges to traverse the Grand Canal, the Rialto Bridge is a much-loved symbol of Venice, for centuries immortalized in paintings, picture postcards, and every genre of souvenir. In the vicinity of the bustling Rialto market, there are any number of typical restaurants which resemble the old taverns of Venice; where the food served has the still unfamiliar aroma of the orient. Venice's cooks were, in fact, the first to introduce a series of exotic new spices to Italian...
The islands of the Lagoon
A tour of the islands of the Venetian lagoon is the perfect choice for those looking for a quieter, less crowded alternative to Venice, option made all the easier thanks to the various companies renting boats and kayaks with which to reach the islands. Lido An excursion might easily commence on Lido of Venice, island which bursts to the brim with international movie stars during the annual Venice Film Festival, held here each September. A great place to explore by bike, pedaling along the...

Further on, in Campo di S.Maria Formosa, there is the church of the same name designed by Mauro Coducci in 1492, which jealously guards the...
The wonder of St Mark's
For more than fifteen centuries, Piazza S. Marco has been home to some of the world's most stunning works of architecture. It is here, in the smallest district of Venice, that the political and religious life of the city reaches its maximum expression. All of the most important events are celebrated here, including the spectacular carnival of Venice. Procuratorie: Old and New The Piazza San Marco is closed off on three sides by the Procuratorie, divided in the Procuratorie Vecchie on the...
