Description
A true labyrinth of alleys, 150 canals and eclectic Gothic and Byzantine architectural styles, Venice is a truly unique city and one of Italy’s finest jewels. Once the capital of a maritime empire that controlled commerce over the Mediterranean Sea, time seems to have stood still here due to the absence of cars and modern buildings. The crown jewel of the Adriatic Sea was the muse of Hemingway, Byron, James, and many others. Today, it struggles with the modern age of tourism and climate change. We will unveil the true charm of Venice for your eyes only.
