If time allows, you may choose to explore Venice by land & water before flying home. Glide through the canals on a gondola ride, cross the17th-century covered stone Bridge of Sighs during an interior tour of the Doge’s Palace, and shop for some of Venice’s exquisite Murano glass near St. Mark’s Square.
