  • What To Buy: Venice is famous for murano glass and just about any shop sells it. Most will ship larger items back to your home.

    Millefiore makes a great gift for someone back home. They sell a lot of pendants and charms or little glass toys.

    What To Pay: Millefiore pendant prices range in price due to size and metal (silver v gold) A good price is under 5 euro. You can bargain with the shop keeper if you plan to buy many of them

     Great hotel tips. I think about 3 days is a good amount to spend in Venice in order to wander, get lost, wander some more. Some grand insights.

     GASP! Only "A day to day and a half" for Venice! Bite your tongue, this gorgeous city deserves so much more than that. It's fabulous, sexy and full of charm. I cannot wait to return with my hubby later this year. :) Happy travels!
