After 6 days in Venezia, we thought we would share with you how to take in the full beauty and magic of this dramatic city despite the crowds, and it’s not even full tourist season yet! 

Getting away from the masses around Piazza San Marco allowed us to see the real Venezia. Everything we took in visually, as we roamed through the web of canals and sidewalks (primarily by ourselves), granted us the time to think about the city’s ingenuity and resilience – not the Instagram influencers we left behind!

This strategy involves a lot of walking, yet that’s a good thing since you can enjoy a gondola ride on a quiet canal and have your choice of local osterias, not to mention the “tranquilita”!
