 | There are neither cars nor busses in Venice. People here only go on foot or on the water. Big passenger launches – vaporetto - play a part of public transport. They have license plates, routs and unified tickets. Private motor boats are taxis. Gondola is a narrow black boat for romantic rows around Venice for 80 euros per hour. »»

To have a tasty and inexpensive dinner you need to go into the heart of the city, as far as possible from the tourist tracks – especially from San Marco and Riva degli Schiavoni, where you are sure to get a treat of some freshly-unfrozen muck at a fabulous price. As for numerous cafes in San Marco Square – they are certainly worth spending time there. Only a cup of Italian cappuccino at the most popular Venice’s cafe will cost you about 10 euros. How come it’s so expensive?! Well, you know, Hemingway and Byron drank coffee here long before your modest person. »» |
