Venice
Venice is one of the few cities in the world the can be truly described as unique.
It survives against all the odds, built on a series of low mud banks amid the tidal waters of the Adriatic and regularly subject to floods. Venice expended its power and influence throughout the Mediterranean to Constantinople (now Istanbul). The immense wealth of the city was celebrated in art and architecture all over the city.
Today, Venice has found a new role. The palazzi have become museums, shops, hotels and apartments, and her convents have been turned into centers for restoration. Yet little of the essential fabric of Venice has altered in 600 years.
The city' sounds are still those of footsteps and the cries of boatmen. The only engines ore those of waterbuses ferrying passengers between stops.
The same well-worn streets are still trod.
Our travel designer will help you enjoy the magic of this improbable place whose "streets are full of water" and where the glories of the past are evident at every turn.
