In just three days, immerse yourself in Venice’s hidden gems, savor authentic local flavors, and experience the unique rhythm of a city built on water.

Islands, Art, and Endless Charm

Venice’s origins date back over 1,500 years, beginning as a refuge from invaders in the Adriatic marshlands and growing into a formidable maritime empire by the Middle Ages. This proud legacy is woven into its breathtaking sites—St. Mark’s Basilica, the Doge’s Palace, and the opulent palazzos that line the Grand Canal. Just beyond the main island, a quieter Venice awaits on Murano and Burano, islands famed for their glassmaking and vibrant architecture, each adding a new hue to the city’s rich mosaic.
