VENICE - MAZZORBO - VENICE - CHIOGGIA - VENICE
Discover works in all shapes and sizes throughout Venice. Begin the trip at the fabulous Scuola Grande di San Rocco, a treasure trove of stunning works by Tintoretto and several of his assistants. Captivating frescoes transport us to the epic time known as the Venetian Renaissance. In Burano, learn about the delicate craft of lacemaking at the local museum. Talented artists have sustained traditional methods over the centuries, creating exquisite pieces evoking tales about the picturesque island. Vicenza, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, welcomes you with open arms. Explore the Teatro Olimpico, one of Andrea Palladio's masterpieces, and immerse yourself in the dramatic elegance found in the Italian Renaissance. Lastly, the pièce de résistance: a coveted entry to the major international event known as Biennale Arte—celebrating innovation and contemporary artistic expression. This is a timeless cruise, where each port-of-call becomes a work of art in itself.
