Venice is one of Italy's most famous cities, but many visitors rarely venture beyond her boundaries. With three nights in the country and another three in the city, this package is ideal for those wishing to sample the delights of the Veneto region. From the romance of Venice to the charm of Verona, the treasures that are so well hidden throughout this little-known region are yours to discover.
Your vacation starts with three nights at the Hotel Mastino in the center of Verona. Verona is one of Italy's most charming cities, blessed with many cultural attractions, and immortalised by Shakespeare. Situated in the historical center of Verona, just over 200 yards from the Arena and Piazza Bra, the recently restored 3-Star Hotel Mastino is conveniently located close to Verona's major attractions and offers a pleasant and friendly atmosphere. Your stay in Verona will inlcude Main Floor seats to a performance at the famous Arena [when in season].
In Venice, you'll stay at the 4-Star Hotel Metropole, which is built on the site of the church where Antonio Vivaldi composed some of his most famous pieces. In the late 19th century it became a hotel and, in 1895, Sigmund Freud was among the illustrious roster of guests. The hotel's position is superb and the palazzo commands a magnificent view over the city. Overlooking the lagoon, where it meets the Grand Canal, and just a 3 minute walk from St. Mark's Square, the Hotel Metropole has one of the most enviable locations in Venice. A half day Private Walking Tour will reveal to you the story of the watery realm once referred to as the "Most Serene Republic", which exerted its powerful influence throughout the Mediterranean for centuries. By the time Venice's 18th century Golden Age rolled around, the city had lost much of its maritime power. After descending into a voluptuary decadence, which bequeathed to us such expressions of opulent frivolity as the stunning Ca'Rezzonico, the courtly sounds of Vivaldi and the frothy paintings of Giambattista Tiepolo, Venice earned its reputation as a city of pleasures. Before you leave Venice you'll get to sample some of the local wines in a Private Wine Tasting session [with appetizers]. Why not sample those pleasures for yourself with this affordable vacation package?
