An Introduction to Venice

Enjoy a leisurely stroll through this elegant sinking city, while uncovering its most compelling sights.                                                                                    

The Doge’s Palace encapsulates Venice, with its gothic arches, vast golden staircase, and famous Bridge of Sighs, which offers you a glimpse into the palace prisons. Then gaze up in wonder at the beautiful façade of St Mark's Basilica, with its gold mosaic arches, above the carved Romanesque entrance and five dramatic domes.

You’ll love the stately public buildings and elegant cafés in St Mark's Square, as the two bronze Moors hammer out the time in the clock tower and the towering Campanile looks out over the city. You’ll also have some free time for some shopping or relaxing in a café.
