Venice
This classic city break destination has a timeless appeal, but in 2020 why not explore further than the Rialto and Doge’s Palace? On a trip with The Hotel Inspector and presenter of Secret Italy, Alex Polizzi, you'll experience an unforgettable cruise around the Venice Lagoon.
You’ll visit the quieter islands of Murano and Burano, as well as see nearby Chioggia and have free time to discover the floating city’s warren of canals and secret alleys.
