The estimated time of arrival in Venice is 11:00 AM.
Upon arrival, hop on a private boat and cross the lagoon to St. Mark's.

Stroll the main streets to the Rialto Bridge and other monuments of “La Serenissima.”
Learn more about the Republic of Venice and how it came to dominant both the east and the west as the “Queen of the Adriatic.” Universally considered one of the most beautiful cities in the world, the city is built on a group of 117 small islands that are separated by canals. The central sestiere (district) is awash with beautiful squares and crumbling mansions, along with ancient churches, ateliers and bridges.
In the afternoon you will have some free time to relax and explore on your own. Get off the beaten path for a more authentic look at everyday life in the city, or just sit back and people watch in one of the many cafés of Piazza San Marco.
