The iconic Gondolas of Venice. Art, history and beautiful waterways. The enchanting city of Venice, its surrounding islands, and classic Italian countryside and beaches are yours to discover and enjoy from the superb vantage position of your own sundeck. For both its breathtaking views and the fantastic cruising experience it offers, the Venetian Lagoon is not surprisingly one of our most popular cruising destinations. Venice, in the heart of the Venetian lagoon, is arguably the world’s most beautiful water city and a delight to explore. Its many surrounding islands - Murano, Burano, Torcello, Sant’Erasmo, San Francesco del Deserto, Chioggia - provide glimpses into Venetian culture, art and history and are also not to be missed. From lace-making to glass-blowing, pizza throwing to fishing, Venice is a melting pot of arts, crafts, skills and traditional lifestyles which are a delight to discover.
