WHERE
Located in Northeastern Italy, Venice is a city in and on the water. Made up of over 100 small islands in the Adriatic Sea, it has all the old world charm you can dream of. With buildings that seem to rise out of the water, there are no cars or roadways. You navigate the city in gondolas on canals. Visiting Venice is like taking a beautiful step back in time.
WHAT
With places to visit like the Grand Canal, Saint Mark’s Basilica and the Piazza San Marco, you will have a trip filled with activities. The Grand Canal runs through the city with an uncountable amount of smaller waterways to explore and Saint Mark’s square is in the center of the city and a great place to explore on foot. Venice is also known around the world for its beautiful glass. Hand made on the island of Murano, it is colorful and elaborate. Since it is a coastal city, the seafood is always fresh in Venice and it is a must try. Enjoy a specialty, like cuttlefish with handmade ink pasta. Venice offers the best of what Italy has to offer.
