Gondola ride. Rialto bridge. Nice stop for a drink. And of course our wonder guide Claudia I can’t say enough about how wonderful Claudia was. She interacted well with our daughter and son in law but also was aware of my husband’s difficulties with stairs. She really knew Venice and tried to keep us out of crowds as much as possible.

Incredible day in Venice- our guide Natalia took is all around the city and shared so much information. She was wonderful. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND. The car service picked us up as soon as we got off the ship in Trieste and drove us to Venice. Very easy.
