Venice: Incomparable Canals And Calli


 

On this tour you will see the railway station, the Rialto Bridge, the commercial center (with shops full of jewelry, shoes, and clothing), and the weekly markets, where fresh fruits and vegetables arrive - via the Canal - at the quay and the market. Along the Grand Canal you will see magnificent palaces and lovely bridges. Then you venture along picturesque calli, bordered by shops that display precious blown glass objects from Murano and Carnival masks and costumes. In short, you'll see why Venice is unforgettable!

Tips in this Tour:
Wear a comfortable pair of walking shoes! Venice is one place where you don't have to worry about automobile traffic when taking in the sites. Your feet are your only transportation.
Come hungry! There are lots of regional treats to be savored along the way in the many coffee bars and "pasticcerie"  (bakeries).
Take a camera! The sights are so breathtaking. You'll want to preserve every moment.
The morning and evening skies are the most splendid sights in Venice.
Venice can be confusing with its winding streets and narrow ways. If you ever get lost, ask a local shopkeeper for San Marco, the main square (or piazza). From San Marco you can find your way anywhere.
