Pros: Gorgeous architecture. Great food. Cons: Can be expensive.
I recently returned from a 3-week fly/drive trip of Italy with my sister. We travelled from top to bottom and Venice remains, in my mind, the one place I would really love to re-visit. This is the first of several reviews, including places to stay in...
Pros: Beauty visualized and projected Cons: Are you kidding? None (ok I'm sure there must be)
Let me tell you something old and new. I just love Venice. I really do.
The first time I visited, I was sixteen years old, but what can you appreciate at that age. Maybe just the ice cream, if that, and let’s face it there are other ice...
Pros: Fairytale city, unique, historic, atmospheric, fantastic Cons: Very expensive accommodation
My wife and I managed to escape to Italy for 7 days, 3 of which we spent in Venice (Sept 2002). My expectations were mixed having read many reviews on Epinions and Fodors, but I must say there is no place on earth like Venice. It is a city of palaces,...
Pros: unbelievably beautiful Cons: too many tourists
Review Topic: Overview
Venice is a dream, but without careful planning it could seem more like a nightmare. It is one of the most visited spots on this earth and when it's crowded with tourists it's very hard to spot Venice's...
Pros: good food, compact city, not hard to get around Cons: water taxis were fairly expensive and ferries were crowded
Venice is a truly stange and fantastic city. For one, it is an island city. This is not so strange, in and of itself. However, it is built on over 100 islands. To my knowledge, this is fairly unique :).
Cars, from what I could tell, are...
Pros: Romantic, extremely safe, no cars or motorized vehicles of any type Cons: Too many tourists, excessive commercialization, high water, maps are useless for the most part
As it presently stands, I have been to Venice 4 times and plan to return a minimum of 4 more times in the near future!! Though all of my trips were solo ones, I've never felt lonely and always managed to find a bit of romance along the way. My first t ...
Pros: change from rest of italy, escape from cars Cons: can be tourist flooded, not cheap
I visited Venice as part of a fairly typical summer art tour of Italy. There is much wonderful art to see all over Italy, but only in Venice do you have the option of seeing large quantities of excellent modern art. And, of course, the Venetian painters...
Pros: A most unique city to experience. Cons: I'm not able to live there, yet.
Everyone should experience Venice. It is one of the world's unique treasures. Rich and varied in history, art, architecture, and lifestyle, Venice is an entity that is greater than its parts. When you decide to spend your time and money to travel to...
Pros: Beautiful and unique surroundings, a variety of fun or romantic things to do. Cons: The weather and prices can catch you off guard.
The Atmosphere of Venice
In Venice, you always feel like you're in a movie, or a dream. Everything seems too unreal, the gondolas, the outdoor restaurants, or the water filled streets. That is probably one of the reasons why Venice is my favourite...
Pros: scenery, shopping ,history,novelty Cons: Cell phones, the twentieth century
1996 in Venice. Imagine the magical canals with each winding waterway another adventure of sight and sound. We spent $75.00 per person to go on this unique method of water transportation know as the Gondola. Next imagine an Opera singer in the Gondola...
Pros: endlessly charming and unlike anyplace on earth Cons: expensive; not for anyone counting on wheels
Hundreds of years ago, there used to be an annual race that ran the distance of Venice's Grand Canal, arguably one of the most fantastic streets (so to speak) in the world. Lord Byron, the English Romantic poet, was one of its more well-known...
Pros: Beauty, food, history Cons: Tourists, pigeons
Review Topic: Practical Information
Venice is a frenzy of camera flashes and jostling tourists at any time of the year, but in June 2000, with the usual throng of summer visitors augmented by the approaching film festival, the...
Pros: Great art and architecture. A gem in a wonderful setting. Cons: Can be expensive ( but worth the cost).
Venice September /October 97 Trip
First let me say that I was not really looking forward to visiting Venice. I had heard all the horror stories about the crowds, the smells, the heat and the high prices and I’m not really big on medieval /...
Pros: Beautiful architecture, peaceful back streets Cons: You can get ripped off, only one public toilet, so you have to use the ones in the cafes.
Myself and my ex went to Venice on our honeymoon a few years ago. It was June, and the heat was in the 90's. But there were plenty of little cafes down narrow streets where you could sit outside and cool down with one of those huge and uniquely Italian...
Pros: very romantic, plenty to see and do Cons: lots and lots of walking, dirty water in the canals
Venice was my absolute favorite city in Italy. The only thing that would have made it better was a special someone to share the romance with. So here we are...my last journal excerpts of this amazing trip...
