Keep your eyes peeled for the captivating window displays of artisan workshops and antique stores – you never know what treasures you might find! And, of course, no true Venetian experience is complete without a stop for a truly exceptional espresso at a tiny, local coffee roastery, a place that’s been perfecting its secret recipe for nearly a century. Next, we'll plunge into the vibrant energy of the San Polo and San Marco districts.

Lunchtime calls for a visit to a traditional "bacaro" tucked away in Venice's labyrinthine streets. Here, you can indulge in delicious Venetian "cicchetti" – small, flavorful snacks that are the perfect taste of local life. After lunch, we'll find ourselves in the grandeur of Piazza San Marco, surrounded by its magnificent landmarks, before making our way to the poignant Bridge of Sighs. Finally, after our exhilarating exploration, we'll relax and glide back to the station aboard a vaporetto (water bus). As we cruise along the Grand Canal, soak in the breathtaking views of the elegant palazzos lining the waterway – a perfect end to a perfect Venetian adventure.
