Traveler reviews
Venice is so beautiful and a city must visit.
Venice is so beautiful and worth to go despite a lot of walking. May stay for one night to enjoy the evening/night view.
What I wish I knee
I wish I was advised I needed a ticket to go inside the Juliet house and the Arena in Verona. And the options for the gondola ride when I booked.Additionally , the time allowed for the return to the pier in Venice was not enough and we were running to make it on time. However, the tour leader was amazing and very supportive with my friend injury condition.
