Off cruise ship- to Venice for 3 days

Got off our cruise ship on time(8:00 am) got 2 porters for our 8 pieces of luggage ( half are Xmas presents) was unloaded in the parking lot with rain threatening and waiting under a small tent for our private driver. He arrived 15-20 minutes late ( it is Italy😀) with a small hatchback. After squeezing everything into every possible space in the car we set off -kind of a taciturn driver who stayed watching or talking on his phone almost the entire time, we arrived st our airport hotel safely and unloaded. All good! We put 5 of our bags immediately into storage and waited for our room to be ready before heading into Venice to meet a great Canadian couple , Dan & Sophia, that came off the cruise ship with us and are spending one night in Venice before flying home tomorrow. We got a gondola for the 4 of us and had an hour long ride on the Grand Canal (Venice’s Main Street) and down several very narrow side canals. It was all great, but we all liked the quiet, tiny canals the best because it was so ethereal drifting quietly down these tiny alleys of water.Leer más
