DREAMS AROUND THE CORNER

• allow yourself to get lost among the romantic and decadent streets of the city;
• a gondola ride is required and if the gondolier sings is even better (although if you’re a male couple and your gondolier is the only one who sings, it might be a little embarrassing);
• climb to the tower of Piazza San Marco and see an incredible sunset over the city;
• go into one of the many Venetian mask shops and don’t resist the temptation to buy one;
• visit the friendly Burano island and be enchanted by its colorful houses;
• cross, at least once, the famous Rialto Bridge and wander through its market;
• live the unique atmosphere of the city and its unrealistic scenarios. It’s like being in a gigantic movie set.
