New Year Day in Venice
by admin on Dec.10, 2008, under Venice
Venice is a very romantic city, where couples love to get lost: there’s nothing more fascinating that walk hand in hand between alleys and bridges.
Winter, with the fog slowly rising from the sea, has a very particular fascination…Sometimes, it seems to make disappear palaces and monuments and to hide the beauty of this city in the silence.
The advantage of the Christmas Holidays, or as an idea to celebrate the New Year! Give yourself a romantic weekend in Venice, or perhaps some more days to relax and enjoy the less tourist zones of the city. The magic atmosphere of the city surrounded by the lagoon will make it feels as a Doge’s New Year’s Eve .
And if you want to give yourself, perhaps as Christmas gift, a unique experience, take a gondola ride. While you relax on a romantic sofa, the gondola rider behind you will tell you the story and anecdotes about Venice, indicating you the palaces that belonged to celebrities, and tips that only Venetian people know.
Do you think a gondola ride is too expensive? We’ve heard it can cost from 60, 80 euros on, and many gondola riders haggle.
Book it now, by internet, and you will spend much less than you can imagine.
A gondola ride for December 31st, departing from Ponte della Paglia at 15:30, taking you on Canal Grande and the small inner canals, will cost you only € 46.20…
Give yourself an unforgettable New Year Holiday…
