Relaxing break afloat in Venice
Summary Description: Set against the backdrop of the glittering Adriatic Sea, Venice sparkles with romance as you wander through the charming campi or watch the gondolas gently glide under the many bridges that criss-cross the maze of canals. Filled with glorious palazzi, towering churches, art galleries, fine shopping and waterways with graceful gondolas, Venice fully deserves the title "la Serenissima".
From our well-situated mooring point just 15 minutes' walk from St Mark's Square, we are free to discover this truly romantic city. We also have the pleasure of delightful cruises across the bay to visit the charming islands of Burano and Murano plus a trip inland to the town of Padua, dedicated to St Anthony and full of artistic treasures.
